The Bible says in Hosea 10:12, "Break up your fallow ground." What happens when you plough up a field that has crops on it? You harvest the crops and leave the field alone. Then, the rain comes and the sun bakes it. Over time, it develops a hard crust. To make it productive again, there needs to be a deep turning plough, then a harrow and other kinds of ploughing to break up that ground. We need the same thing. We get hardened like crust and filled with stuff. That's part of the world we live in. You say your life is dry. Well, your spirit life gets that way. I'd recommend going away for a day - with a Bible, pad of paper, and pen. Write down the sins you've committed and the things that are causing your spiritual life to get encrusted. Confess them. Ask the Lord for forgiveness. Move into the fullness of His Spirit. Ask Him to fill you with His presence. Then, walk in that power.
