‎Hi Queens,

‎It's a new day. Day 11 of my 40 days fast, you are invited to join me. This morning I pray for peace over you and clarity for you. I pray that your burdens be made light and your worries blown away, in Jesus Name Amen.

‎Let's break bread:

‎Today I came across a very familiar scripture I've been sharing, sometimes the Holy Spirit brings the same passage and you still find incredible hidden gems each time.

‎Always ask Him to show you what He wants to tell you and patiently read. We are in the book of Nehemiah and we are reading about the rebuilding of the wall of Jerusalem.

‎Nehemiah son of Hacaliah was an exile in Susa who worked as the King's cup-bearer and God laid on His heart to rebuild the broken wall of Jerusalem.

‎Nehemiah Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 explains how God made Him favourable in the eyes of the king. Not only that, upon arrival in Jerusalem, God had some leaders support his mission.

‎Nehemiah 2:17-18(NLT)

‎17 But now I said to them, “You know very well what trouble we are in. Jerusalem lies in ruins, and its gates have been destroyed by fire. Let us rebuild the wall of Jerusalem and end this disgrace!”

‎18 Then I told them about how the gracious hand of God had been on me, and about my conversation with the king.

‎They replied at once, “Yes, let’s rebuild the wall!” So they began the good work.

‎Now I was used to seeing the priests and leaders of other districts helping and building. What surprised me was seeing goldsmiths, a manufacturer of perfumes, merchants and women.

‎Nehemiah 3:8(NLT)

‎8 Next was Uzziel son of Harhaiah, a goldsmith by trade, who also worked on the wall. Beyond him was Hananiah, a manufacturer of perfumes. They left out a section of Jerusalem as they built the Broad Wall.

‎Nehemiah 3:12(NLT)

‎12 Shallum son of Hallohesh and his daughters repaired the next section. He was the leader of the other half of the district of Jerusalem.

‎Nehemiah 3:31-32(NLT)

‎31 Malkijah, one of the goldsmiths, repaired the wall as far as the housing for the Temple servants and merchants, across from the Inspection Gate. Then he continued as far as the upper room at the corner.

‎32 The other goldsmiths and merchants repaired the wall from that corner to the Sheep Gate.

‎Amen

‎God can use anyone to build and it's beautiful to note that you don't need to have a background in what He has called you to build.

‎Secondly He would send help from people you would least expect to have interest or any relation to what you are building.

‎Father thank you for your word, let it take root and bear good fruit. We love you, Amen.

‎If you want to have a personal relationship with Jesus who wants to be your friend, confidant, defender and all you need say with me:

‎Dear Jesus, come into my heart, I make you my Lord and Saviour, I repent of my sins, I believe you died on the cross to reconcile me back to God, I receive your love and new life, Amen.

‎Be confident you have what it takes and help is on the way.

‎Love Beth and Papa.
