Good Morning!! Most people would remember Nehemiah for the rebuilding of Jerusalem’s wall. But we also see that he wanted to be remembered for the spiritual heritage he left,...and not just for restoring the security of the city. The end of the biblical record of his leadership documents a list of reforms dealing with marriage, the sanctity of the priestly office, and the Sabbath. These were the things he prayed to be remembered for.
...Remember me with favor, O my God.—Nehemiah 13:31b (NIV)
What legacy are you building today? Keeping in mind that the purpose of a legacy is not for self-enhancement but for kingdom advances,...we ought to think about what we have done and are doing to build godly values in generations to come. Legacies are built one day at a time as we do the work of God in this world.
Trust that if you are faithful to him, he will use you to glorify himself in others.
Remember us with favor, O God, and help us to use each day we have to advance Your kingdom. Amen.
"Our biggest challenge to maintaining commitment,...is keeping focused on God's work ."
