The Meaning behind Ezekiel Tree: Healing
In the 47th Chapter of Ezekiel, the prophet Ezekiel sees a large grove of trees planted within waters that flow from the sanctuary and whose leaves never wither and are for healing.
What that means....
The heart behind Ezekiel tree is to rely upon the Spirit of God for healing rather than the reasonings of man.
We believe God is alive and well upon planet earth and His promises for healing are still available to us today through prayer and faith.
It is not for us to interpret scripture according to our experiences. Rather, we can seek His face to experience the compassionate promises of God here and now.
