Nehemiah 2:2 Wherefore the king said unto me, Why is thy countenance sad, seeing thou art not sick? this is nothing else but sorrow of heart. Then I was very sore afraid.
Praise the Lord!!
Today we will meditate about sorrowful heart. Our heart is made up of more than just tissues. In it has lots of things which is difficult for any human to comprehend.
Jesus said
Mark 7:21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
Mark 7:22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:
All these comes out of the heart to defile a man. But, Surprisingly there is no mention of sorrow of heart. So what causes a heart to be sorrowful. Sorrow comes when you ask for something and you don't get it.
Jesus further said.
Luke 6:45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
So we have a good man with his heart in abundance and evil man in his abundance of heart.
Nehemiah was troubled for 3 things.
1) Jerusalem lieth in waste.
2) Their Sepulchre lying unattended.
3) Gates consumed in fire.
His sorrow of heart was because there is no one who could help him to get back to his city and rebuild the temple to its original splendour.
What is your sorrow for today?
Are we still sorrowful for all the materialistic things?
Jesus said
Luke 12:31 But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Every time you do God's business. He will take care of your business. So get up! And do the work of an evangelist.
We all need only one certificate in this world and that is well done!! Good and Faithful servant
God Bless
