I think about the opportunities that are available to us in the family of Jesus. I see the children of God in the struggle of their lives, not using the power that is within them. We sink into a deep sleep when we struggle past our capabilities.
Because of our faith in the Lord we have access to a reserve of strength, that some haven’t tried. The Word of our God exclaims to us that we are more then conquers, through Him who saved us. Our faith have been tried to the quick, we sink into deep sleep.
If we are born again and except Him as our only lord and Savior, where is our confidence? Can we see clearly that this world is on its way out? Haven’t we glimpsed thee destruction that has happened around us, in our own lives and the lives of those we love? Snap! A statement that if not careful could relate to cursing; have we snapped? I feel as though at time in my life, that I have lost all of my courage, I’m still sinking into a deep sleep, and no one can awaken me.
At last the wall was completed to half its original height around the entire city—for the workers worked hard. (Nehemiah 4:6, TLB)
The prophet fought a fight that other would turn around and flee. I wonder if the people of today were there, would they have the courage to face the enemy and fight. (?)
Perhaps someone can encourage me for a change that I may stand up with true conviction and re-build the temple walls that mean so much to us all. The old song said, ‘count your blessings name them one by one’. I believe we have what it takes to turn the tide of failure around. First thing we must do as Son’s and Daughter’s, cooperate…so we all won’t ‘SNAP’.
