Nehemiah 1
Inspired thots
It would not be easy to move one into ACTION if there is no Identification; identification brings on Compassion upon hearing unfavorable news of others which in turn stirs up the spirit to Intercede.
Nehemiah identified with his people who returned to Jerusalem after exile but had no leader. Hence, Nehemiah was filled with compassion for his people from the report received. An aimless people is a people without hope. The first course of action is towards God; rebuild the temple of God for an identification by the people to the God of their fathers. Then the people's spirit would be stirred up for greater works to God.
Nehemiah prayed and recalled the ways of his people and interceded for repentance with promises of God. How important to know the word of God to move with the Spirit!
A daily time out with the Lord Jesus, to hear Him speak to ME. I am asking the Lord to share HIS thoughts with ME, to teach me more about Himself, and how I can be drawn closer to Him... for 'His thoughts are not my thoughts and neither are His ways my ways' Isaiah 55:8,9. This blog is not a theological exegesis. This blog is to record down the INSIGHTS & INSPIRATIONS of God's Word to me; speaking LIFE into my life for Abundant life! :)
