Psalm 113:7(He raiseth up the poor out
of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill; 8 That he may set him
with princes, even with the princes of his people).
Psalm121:1(I will lift up mine eyes
unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. 2 My help cometh from the LORD,
which made heaven and earth).
The dunghill is a tricky place; no one
should ever believe that they are destined to remain there because that’s the
trick Satan is using to keep his captive in the valley. God has given every one
of us something that we can use to get out of the dunghill. In the case of
Nehemiah it was the sin of his fathers that sent him into captivity among other
Jews. Many are in the dunghill because of the sin of their forefather, the sin
of idolatry. It was a generational problem. I decree an end to every
generational curse hanging on anyone’s life right now in Jesus name. It doesn’t
matter how you get there, what is most important is what you do to get out of
the valley. Nehemiah was serving as a cupbearer to the King in the land
of his captivity; but the Love he has for God and the things of God brought him
out of the dunghill. When he heard about the situation of the remnant of the
Jews back in Jerusalem and the situation of the house of God; he was sad and
angry in his spirit. He embarks on prayer and fasting for days to seek the face
of God (Nehemiah 1:1-11). If you want to be favor; you need to win God’s
heart first because if God did not touch people’s hearts to favor you they will
not, no matter how close you are to the person. Instead of complaining; I think
what we should be doing is to find out what we can do to please God and get His
attention. Nehemiah found favor with the king and he was released to go and fix
the house of God and change his people's living condition. It was a selfless
journey and that’s what God is expecting from us. He was not angry with God;
our situation should get us closer to God not far from Him since He is the only
one that can deliver us. We all need to learn how to forget the past and focus
on the future because there is nothing in the past; it is gone but there is a
lot for us in the future. Apostle Paul says in Philippians 3:13(Brethren, I
count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those
things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,
14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ
Jesus). Let the past go away with wind so that the rain of your future can
fall. Nehemiah’s journey was successful; despite all the opposition he rebuilt
the wall of the city and he became the Governor of Judah. Imagine a cup bearer
now Governor. I pray for someone reading this, as you make a decision to Love
God today, He will catapult you into your next levels in Jesus name. Your heart
is the connecting link between you and God. It may look like the distance is
much but with God is very close; he will connect you in a twinkle of an eye.
The word here is Love; you can’t fake it, this is between you and God. No man
can lift you up; if it is in their power to do it, they would have done it long
before now. So, it is wisdom to connect your heart to where the power lies. You
can deceive men but you can’t deceive God; the result will show. If men lift
you up, the same men will take you down anytime you stop being their echo
chamber but God will not disappoint you with Him you are sure. Friends,
position yourself to be found by God; He found David, Joseph and Nehemiah; you
are the next to be found in Jesus name. Just look up to the hills where your
help will come from and you will be rescued. He is beckoning on you to come up
hither; quickly stretch out your hand by praying this simple salvation prayer
and be saved in Jesus name.
Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a
sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your
precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord
Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and savior. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.
