The Prophetic Noise: Awakening the Church to Speak Truth in Love

From Dry Bones to Living Army: God's Vision for His Church

Hey there, it's Conrad from ConradRocks.Net. As the author of "Open Your Eyes: My Supernatural Journey," I've been on a mission to ignite the fires of revival in the hearts of believers. Today, I want to share with you an incredible revelation that God has been unfolding over the past year. It's a message that brings together Ephesians 4 and Ezekiel 37 in a powerful way, showing us how to speak the truth in love and awaken the Church.

The Unfolding Message

God has a fascinating way of revealing His truths. As Proverbs 25:2 says, "It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honor of kings is to search out a matter." Over the past year, I've watched as God has sewn together a message through many different people and experiences. It's like a divine puzzle, with each piece falling into place at just the right time.

This process reminds me of how prophecy works in the New Testament. We all prophesy in part, with different individuals receiving different aspects of a revelation. It's a beautiful picture of the Body of Christ working together to understand God's will.

The Waves of Revelation

I've had dreams for over a decade about prophets, pastors, and teachers catching waves of revelation from God. In these visions, I see some looking towards the land, missing the waves, while others are positioned to catch and ride these divine insights. It's a powerful metaphor for how we need to be attentive and ready to receive what God is saying.

Recently, I had a vision of God pouring liquid gold into a mold, representing pure doctrine being poured into the Church, particularly into the roles of teachers and pastors. This image speaks to the refining process God is initiating in His Church, purifying our understanding and teaching of His Word.

The Importance of Biblical Literacy

As we dive deeper into this revelation, I can't stress enough the importance of reading and understanding the Bible. The more we immerse ourselves in Scripture, the more we can discern truth from falsehood. Hosea 4:6 warns us, "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge." We must be diligent in studying God's Word to avoid falling into deception.

Speaking the Truth in Love

As I've been praying about how to speak the truth in love, God has been revealing a powerful connection between Ephesians 4 and Ezekiel 37. It's a message about unity, growth, and the power of God's word in the Church.

Ephesians 4:11-16 talks about the roles of apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers. These offices are given "for the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ." The goal is unity in faith and knowledge of Christ, so we're not "tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine."

This passage reminds us that our roles in the Church aren't about personal glory or status. They're about equipping believers, building up the Body of Christ, and protecting against false teachings. It's a call to humility and service, always pointing others to Jesus rather than ourselves.

Connecting to Ezekiel 37

In Ezekiel 37, we see the famous vision of the valley of dry bones. God tells Ezekiel to prophesy to these bones, and as he does, there's a noise, a shaking, and the bones come together. This parallels what's happening in the Church today.

The vision in Ezekiel is a powerful picture of resurrection and restoration. Just as God breathed life into those dry bones, He's breathing new life into His Church. But notice the order: first, there's a prophetic word, then a noise, then a shaking, and finally, the coming together.

The Prophetic Noise and Shaking

I believe God is calling for a prophetic noise to be made in the Church. This noise precedes a shaking, which then leads to the scattered parts of the Body coming together. It's a powerful picture of revival and restoration.

A friend shared a teaching with me that every time God shows up in Scripture, there's extreme noise, extreme shaking, and then a message. This pattern is consistent throughout the Bible, and I believe we're seeing it unfold in our time.

Think about it: when God descended on Mount Sinai, there was thunder, lightning, and a loud trumpet blast. When the Holy Spirit came at Pentecost, there was a sound like a rushing wind. God often announces His presence and His message with supernatural phenomena that grab our attention.

The Challenge Before Us

We're at a critical moment in the Church. God is challenging us to step up, to be serious about our faith, and to come together as one Body. This message has been building since at least October 1996, when Tommy Tenney experienced a powerful move of God at Christian Tabernacle.

During that service, as 2 Chronicles 7:14 was read, God's presence manifested in a dramatic way, splitting the pulpit in two. It was a clear sign that God is serious about His people humbling themselves, praying, seeking His face, and turning from wickedness.

This event was a wake-up call to the American Church. It's a reminder that revival isn't just about emotional experiences or large gatherings. It's about genuine repentance, humility, and a return to God's ways.

The Power of Demonstration

As we consider how to speak the truth in love, we must remember that our message isn't just about words. The Apostle Paul reminds us in 1 Corinthians 2:4-5, "My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit's power, so that your faith might not rest on human wisdom, but on God's power."

In our intellectual age, it's easy to get caught up in debates and arguments. But the early Church grew through the demonstration of God's power – healings, deliverances, and transformed lives. We need to return to this kind of faith that doesn't just talk about God's power but demonstrates it.

Overcoming Sin and Ignorance

As we grow in our understanding and walk with God, we'll inevitably encounter areas of sin or ignorance in our lives and in the Church. It's important to approach these situations with humility and grace.

Remember Paul's words in 1 Timothy 1:13, "Even though I was once a blasphemer and a persecutor and a violent man, I was shown mercy because I acted in ignorance and unbelief." God is patient with us as we learn and grow. We should extend that same patience to others, always speaking the truth in love.

The 21-Day Fast: A Time of Preparation

Currently, many believers are engaged in a 21-day fast. This is a critical time of preparation, aligning our hearts with God's purposes. Fasting helps us to quiet the noise of the world and tune into God's voice more clearly.

During this fast, I encourage you to pray specifically about how God wants to use you in this coming move of His Spirit. Ask Him to show you any areas of your life that need alignment with His Word. Seek His face for revelation about His plans for the Church and your role in them.

As we navigate this season of fasting and seeking God, let's be attentive to what He is saying. It's time for the dry bones to come together, for the Church to awaken and speak the truth in love. We can no longer afford to be complacent or lukewarm.

I challenge you to dig deeper in your relationship with God. Seek His face, listen for His voice, and be ready to move when He calls. Let's catch the waves of revelation He's sending our way and ride them into the revival He's preparing.

Here are some practical steps you can take:

1. Commit to regular, in-depth Bible study. Don't just read, but meditate on God's Word.

2. Cultivate a lifestyle of prayer and fasting. Make seeking God's face a priority.

3. Practice speaking the truth in love in your daily interactions. Start with small acts of kindness and bold, loving words.

4. Look for opportunities to demonstrate God's power through prayer for healing, deliverance, or other needs.

5. Connect with other believers who are hungry for revival. Iron sharpens iron, and we need each other in this journey.

Remember, we're called to dig deeper and go higher in our walk with God. Let's do it together! If this message resonates with you, I'd love to hear your thoughts.
