Every time Nehemiah faced a struggle or opposition he prayed to the God of Israel. He knows from where his help comes from. We too, like Nehemiah, can pray for help and guidance before and during any kind of struggle or opposition.

His neighbors were trying to frustrate and stop the good work that was being done. However, every time Nehemiah would dismiss their lies and prayed about each situation that would arise. Because Nehemiah trusted totally in the Lord God, he was able to discern when he was being lied too – a gift of discernment from God.

Like Nehemiah, we can have an intimate relationship with the Most High God by spending time with Him and seeking His face. He alone is God; the God of love, mercy, and grace. Those who seek the Him will not be disappointed.

Dehydrated
The church we’ve created
has become dehydrated;
she lacks vigor and vim,
and has turned from Him.
~
If the church we’ve created
becomes fully hydrated;
she will not give into whim,
because she turned to Him.
