In these days we find ourselves in, who are the people that God can raise up to fulfil His purposes before Jesus takes His church? Who are those who hear from God, seek God, know His heart and allow the Holy Spirit to guide them into their calling and destiny?
We see many examples of people called and subsequently used by God for specific purposes and callings. In the Old Testament we see Nehemiah, who upon receiving news about the destruction of Jerusalem grieved and wept. He had a burden for the things of God and entered into a period of fasting and prayer. Humility and prayer gets God’s attention and now there is a man God can use!
So through the story of Nehemiah, we see him responding to the leading of the Spirit of God back to Jerusalem to consider the rebuilding of the walls of Jerusalem! We see Nehemiah encouraging a team of people, facing critics and opposition to the building, but because God is with him the walls are finished!
Jesus is calling up leaders to be led by the Spirit in the final days of Jesus building His church. There will be challenges and opposition as Nehemiah found out, including lies and persecution, but as Jesus said in Matthew 16 verse 18, “I will build MY church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail.” Halleluyah!
Are you ready to answer the call? Say yes and let Jesus build HIs church through you for His glory and name!
