Lord is God

Nehemiah 6:16 And it came to pass, that when all our enemies heard thereof, and all the heathen that were about us saw these things, they were much cast down in their own eyes: for they perceived that this work was wrought of our God.

Praise the Lord!!

Today we will meditate upon the sovereignty of God. He is Good at all the times.

Sanballat and Tobiah were arch rivals against Jews. They tried everything possible to stop the work of God. At times it would have felt to the Jews that it would be impossible to compete the work.

But Lord is God!! He says

Isaiah 55:11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

In this verse we find 3 things which happened to their enemies which proved God was in control.

1. He made all the enemies to see what he has done. There is nothing hidden. He didn't do anything secretly. But laid the table in front of their enemies.

2. He humiliated the enemies in front of Jews. Nobody could lift their eyes towards them.

3. He showed the enemies of Jews, that He was in control and they can never fight against Him.

Saints, we serve a God who is always concerned about you. You might be feeling today lonely, depressed and sad.

But I have good news for you, we have a Good God who will never leave you till the end of your life.

What should you do in bad circumstances?

1. Have faith in his promise.

2. Pray fervently.

3. Keep yourself from presumptuous sins.

Bible says:

Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)

God Bless
