The rules the Israelites had to follow to achieve the threshold of righteousness before the coming of Jesus were not easy to adhere to. I would have been a frequent offender. Yet they still followed Nehemiah in rededicating themselves to God. They made an effort to live according to the ordinances. What is expected of the Christian today? Is it as complicated as it was before Christ’s coming? May we put in effort to live for God. Nehemiah 10:28-39.

May we not be arrogant when we are enjoying peace, rest, and abundance. May we remain humble and purpose to live in accordance with His will. May we value our walk with Him enough to remain in His will. Nehemiah 9:22-38.

Bringing petitions to the Lord is just one aspect of worship. Let us not stop there. Let us take time to adore the Lord and to praise Him for who He is, what He has done, and for His promises as well. Let us recognise that He is the Almighty God, the everlasting King. There is none that compares with Him. He is worthy of our praise and adoration. 1 Chronicles 16:11-36.

Heavenly Father, help us to rejoice always, to pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances, not to quench the Holy Spirit, not to treat prophecies with contempt, test every prophecy, hold on to what is good and reject every kind of evil.
