TOPIC: Lessons From The Life Of Nehemiah (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Devotional 17 October 2021)

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Matthew 18

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Nehemiah 8:9-10 (KJV)

9 And Nehemiah, which is the Tirshatha, and Ezra the priest the scribe, and the Levites that taught the people, said unto all the people, This day is holy unto the Lord your God; mourn not, nor weep. For all the people wept, when they heard the words of the law.

10 Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the Lord is your strength.

MEMORY VERSE: “Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?” – Psalms 85:6

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:
True revival comes from a realisation of failed responsibility on our part in our walk with God, and a willingness to correct this failure in order to reconcile with Him.

PRAISE WORSHIP: Take a worship song as led by the Holy Spirit

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:
I DECREE UPON YOUR LIFE THAT THE MIGHTY HAND OF GOD SHALL CONTINOUSLY REST UPON YOU FOR GOOD, IN JESUS’ NAME.

The MESSAGE:

God always uses spiritually and morally strong leaders to revive His awareness in His people’s hearts whenever they backslide.

After David was anointed King in Israel, he realised a truth only God fearing leaders know. In 2 Samuel 5:12, the Bible says, “And David perceived that the LORD had established him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom for his people Israel’s sake.” David’s perception is deeply rooted in his fear of God as his benefactor to the Kingship. He never thought he was any better than everyone else in Israel as the reason for his election to the throne. This made God to love him.

This much can be said of Nehemiah. Despite his exalted position as a very close aide to King Artaxerxes, he did not lose sight of the fact that God got him there for His purpose and not for him to feel good. He led the Jews to a great revival of God’s knowledge that made them to feel sorry for their past misconduct, and made a commitment to serve Him better. What did Nehemiah do in this regard?

He purified the Priesthood and rid it of strangers (Nehemiah 7:46). He inspired the renewal of the covenant of God with the Jews (Nehemiah 8:1-7). He led them to a deep repentance (Nehemiah 9:1). He secured the people’s commitment to respect the law of God and to abide by its demands on them (Nehemiah 10:29). He created an atmosphere of peace and security for the Jews to repopulate Jerusalem (Nehemiah 11:1-3). Jerusalem was no longer forsaken. It became ‘BEULAH’, that is married (Isaiah 62:4). He reformed the Jewish social life in accordance with the law of God. This includes treating strangers politely because they were also strangers in Egypt and ensuring the House of God was properly catered for in service by the priests and Levites. He also enforced marital reforms in which he contended against mixed marriages for priests and Levites.

In conclusion, Nehemiah’s revival and reformative work brought joy to the people as they were led to walk and please God. For this, he prayed, “Remember me, O God, for good” (Nehemiah 13:31). The question is what are you going to tell God to remember you for?

PRAYER POINTS:

MORNING

I reject spiritual dullness, in the name of Jesus.
O God, arise and strengthen my bones to rise up to my responsibilities in Your expectations, in the name of Jesus.
I shall walk in the joy of my destiny fulfilment, in the name of Jesus.
EVENING

Any power attacking the promises of God for my life, fail, in the name of Jesus.
Every circle of failure pulling me down when I am rising, break by fire, in the name of Jesus.
Ancestral bloodline battles that are pressing me down, die, in the name of Jesus.
I receive fire to walk in holy revival in every area of my life, in the name of Jesus.

Prayer Of Praise And Thanksgiving (To Be Said Daily)
Father in the name of Jesus, I thank You for:

Drawing me to prayer and power,
The salvation of my soul,
Baptizing me with the Holy Spirit,
Producing spiritual gifts upon my life,
The fruits of the spirit working in me,
The wonderful gift of praise,
All the ways You have intervened in my affairs,
Your divine plan for my life,
You will never leave me nor forsake me,
Bringing me to a place of maturity and deeper life,
Lifting me up when I fall,
Keeping me in perfect peace,
Making all things work together for good for me,
Protecting me from the snares of the fowler and from the noisome pestilence,
The wonder-working power in Your Word and in the Blood of the Lamb,
Giving Your angels charge over me,
Fighting for me against my adversaries,
Making me more than a conqueror,
Supplying all my needs according to Your riches in glory,
Your healing power upon my body, soul and spirit,
Flooding my heart with the light of heaven,
Always causing me to triumph in Christ Jesus,
Turning my curses into blessings,
Enabling me to dwell in safety,
All the blessings of life,
Your greatness, power, glory, majesty, splendor and righteousness,
Silencing the foe and the avenger,
You are at my right hand and I shall not be moved,
You are trustworthy and will help Your own,
Not allowing my enemies to rejoice over me,
Your wonderful love,
You are great and greatly to be praised,
Delivering my soul from death and my feet from stumbling,
You are my fortress and refuge in time of trouble,
Your faithfulness and marvellous deeds,
Your act of power and surpassing greatness,
Dispersing spiritual blindness from my spirit,
Lifting me out of the depths,
Preserving me and keeping my feet from slipping,
Your name is a strong tower, the righteous runs into it and he is safe.
