Word 1
Study Of The Book Of Nehemiah - Rebuilding The Broken Walls & Lives Of The Captivity Returnees By Faith! | Neh. 4:13-15
• Neh. 4:13 Nehemiah is at work, he refused to be discouraged. Again he sees through this action of the enemy and gives him the right answer. With conviction he creates order among the people. He does so by grouping them into their generations. He brings together all of the same “blood group”. They can understand each other well. For a local church the ‘family feeling’ is important. With your family you have something you don’t have with those who are not in that position. There is a bond of fellowship because of common ancestors. In the church that family bond is there through the new life, the life received from God. We can say with the words of Nehemiah that among the Corinthians there are “the lowest parts of the space behind the wall, the exposed places”. In their lives there are areas where the world has easy access because of the lowest lusts of their flesh. Additional guard posts have to be set up there. May you be strong in the Lord!

Word 2
Study Of The Book Of Nehemiah - Rebuilding The Broken Walls & Lives Of The Captivity Returnees By Faith! | Neh. 4:13-15
• Neh. 4:14 Nehemiah, full of courage and determined, rose up and spoke to the people. The nobles and the officials, the middle management so to speak, are mentioned separately. They must certainly take his message to heart, for they in turn must encourage the people. But the rest of the people are also among his listeners. Nehemiah holds his ‘pep talk’. He sees that the enemy’s message has done its work through his representatives among the people. The people threaten to stop building. But he encourages them to continue, convinced that God is with him. In opposition to the enemy, he presents “the Lord who is great and awesome” After grouping them together into their families, Nehemiah now appeals to the family feeling. He emphasizes its value to bring them to full commitment in the battle. They must fight for 1. all their brothers, 2. their children, to give them their future, 3. their wives whom they have received as help, and with whom they are one, to enjoy the land of God with them, 4. their homes, their home area. If we want a passable way for our (natural or spiritual) children, we have to go this way ahead of them. If we leave that way because it takes too much effort, our children will not learn to go that way.

Word 3
Study Of The Book Of Nehemiah - Rebuilding The Broken Walls & Lives Of The Captivity Returnees By Faith! | Neh. 4:13-15
• Neh. 4:15 The enemy failed again. He ran his propaganda machine, but without result. God has His own way of making His work known. He lets the enemy know that their plan no longer has a chance of success. Nehemiah attributes all this to God and not to his own clever actions. He has an eye for the fact that God has paved the way so that they can all return to the wall, each to his own work. Here we see that beautiful balance again: on the one hand, building together on the wall, that one common project; on the other hand, each has his own place in that work that cannot be taken by another. It is a work that is not done by just one or two, but by all together.

Personal Supplication
Father in the name of Jesus, I receive the grace for relentless progress in spite of the opposition of the enemy in Jesus' name! Ps 23:4-5
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

Daily Covenant Favor Declaration
I decree in the name of Jesus, from this moment forward, I see myself the way God sees me. I am highly favoured of the Lord. I am crowned with glory and honour. I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.
I am reigning as a king in life through the one man Jesus Christ

JESUS IS LORD!
