Scripture for Today:
Ezra 4; Psalm 113; 127; Luke 9
Scripture-My special verse for today:
Ezra 4:24 Thus the work on the house of God in Jerusalem came to a standstill until the second year of the reign of Darius king of Persia.
Psalms 127:1 Unless the LORD builds the house, its builders labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the watchmen stand guard in vain.
Observation: The enemies of Judah and Benjamim are the reason for the standstill of the temple. Their lies and schemes stalled the plans of God. Satan is always desiring to destroy the spirit blowing in the hearts of believers. If believers are weak, then they pack up and go home. It is also necessary when building for God to be sure that it comes from God not just what we want. Because without his presence our plans are futile.
Application: What a great lesson to never forget. The people of God should not be surprised when others outside the church seek to destroy our plans. The people of Good should not be surprised when we plan without God that our plans fail. As a church leader, these lessons are fatal if overlooked.
Prayer: May I know when I plan to do ministry in the Church or even in planning that God has His hand in it!
