    Your Prayers Can Start Revival

    If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14



    Ezekiel was a priest who had been carried away by King Nebuchadnezzar and forced to settle in Tel Abib on the Chebar Canal in Babylon. As this man grew older, he grew both hungry for God and lonesome for his homeland, one that we know as Israel today.

    God revealed Himself to Ezekiel and told him of great things which were in the future for Israel. He explained, “The hand of the LORD was upon me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the LORD and set me in the middle of a valley; it was full of bones. He led me back and forth among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, bones that were very dry. He asked me, ‘Son of man, can these bones live?’“ (Ezekiel 37:1-3). Talk about having to answer the Teacher! What do you say when God asks you a question? Dead bones are lifeless, hopeless—they’re finished.

    Yet, and this is what Ezekiel knew, God alone can reverse the hopelessness of dead bones, and wisely, very wisely, Ezekiel answered, “O Sovereign LORD, you alone know!” Good answer! He passed the test. Then God told him to prophesy that breath would enter into them, tendons would be attached, then flesh, then life. Re-creation! It was a picture of Israel’s restoration. It is also a picture of what God does individually and corporately when He chooses to revive His people.

    While revivals—genuine spiritual renewals born of the Holy Spirit—have been milestones of the church from the days of the book of Acts to the present, they are the exception, not the normal, day-by-day, year-by-year sort of thing. Question: Is it possible that in the immediate future, God may again bring revival to His people around the world?

    Ezekiel called God, “Sovereign.” He knew that God answers to none, and that He is the one who responds to the cries of His people, asking Him to revive them and to restore them to the place of joy and service they once had.

    A history of revivals shows that while a Sovereign God does revive His people, they come in response to the cries of His people. Long ago God outlined the conditions which are necessary for revival. He said, “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and will heal their land” (2 Chronicles 7:14).

    Are revivals simply a display of emotionalism or fanaticism? Not at all. They are displays of repentance, a searching for God, and the desire to be rejuvenated spiritually.

    In the early 1900’s, a revival swept the little country of Wales—it was birthed in a prayer meeting. An 18-year-old girl stood to her feet and she said, “I do love Jesus …” Starting to weep, she repeated those words, then sat down unable to speak. In the 1960’s, a spiritual awakening began at the FEBIAS College of the Bible, when missionary Chuck Holsinger spoke in the chapel and said, “The love of God, I cannot understand it,” and like a tidal wave which came from above, something swept over the students, who were confronted with the reality of God’s presence. What should have been a 50-minute service became an all-day prayer meeting that began something with far, far-reaching consequences.

    If your church is a valley of dry bones, there is hope.

    Good day,
    Welcome to The Kitchen, where we explore, prepare and serve the contents in the Body of the Word as the delicacies of God—to create the form of the Father on the earth, to make the earth in His likeness, and to take charge of the economic destinies of nations for God.

    Relax, and let's journey through the scriptures to see the Body of the Word.

    What does God look like?

    It is a simple question, but Scripture gives us an answer that is far more concrete than we often realise.

    The Bible calls God invisible. Yet Scripture also tells us that the invisible God has made Himself known—not merely through ideas, doctrines, or written sentences, but through a Person.

    John, on the island of Patmos, saw Him.

    “I turned around to see the voice that was speaking to me…”

    And what John saw was astonishing: a figure with a head and hair, eyes, feet, a voice, hands, a face and a mouth. John was describing the appearance of Jesus Christ—the living Word of God.

    Revelation 1:12–17

    This is why Scripture says:

    “The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being.”

    Hebrews 1:3

    And again:

    “Christ, who is the image of God.”

    2 Corinthians 4:4

    So we can say:

    The Body of the Word is the image of the invisible God.

    The Scriptures Reveal a Person

    This changes the way we should read Scripture.

    We are accustomed to reading the Bible primarily as a collection of words, teachings, commandments, promises and historical accounts. But Scripture itself tells us that the Scriptures testify about a Person.

    Jesus said:

    “These are the Scriptures that testify about me.”

    John 5:39

    The Scriptures are therefore not merely information about God. They testify about Jesus Christ, the living Word.

    Consider one example.

    John saw the eyes of Christ and wrote:

    “His eyes were like blazing fire.”

    Revelation 1:14

    That is a detailed description of the Body of the Word.

    But Scripture also says:

    “Our God is a consuming fire.”

    Hebrews 12:29

    The description of the Body therefore becomes a revelation about God Himself.

    The same principle runs through the Scriptures: the details of the Body of the Word testify about the Person of the Word and reveal the invisible Father.

    Paul writes:

    “God, who said, ‘Let light shine out of darkness,’ made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ.”

    2 Corinthians 4:6

    The “face of Christ” becomes a point of revelation—the Body of the Word revealing the invisible God.

    Scripture Must Be Unfolded

    This is where something particularly provocative begins to emerge.

    What if the Scriptures are not simply information about God, but the Father's script for revealing Himself?

    Psalm 119:130 says:

    “The unfolding of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple.”

    Psalm 119:130

    The Word must be unfolded.

    We can read a Scripture without necessarily seeing the revelation contained within it.

    We can know the sentence without knowing the Person whom the sentence reveals.

    That is the difference between merely reading Scripture and receiving revelation.

    The detailed descriptions of the Body of the Word are therefore not decorative language. They are scriptural descriptions that can be unfolded to reveal the Father.

    Paul describes this revelation as:

    “the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ.”

    2 Corinthians 4:6

    So the purpose of the unfolding is not simply to give us more biblical information.

    It is to give us the revelation knowledge of the Father.

    The Body of the Word: White Like Wool and Snow

    Consider the description John gives:

    “His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow.”

    Revelation 1:14

    This is a detailed description of the Body of the Word.

    But John is not alone in seeing this.

    Daniel saw the Ancient of Days and wrote:

    “His clothing was as white as snow; the hair of his head was white like wool.”

    Daniel 7:9

    Then Song of Solomon gives another description:

    “His appearance is like Lebanon.”

    Song of Solomon 5:15

    Lebanon was associated with its mountainous, snow-covered appearance.

    The Scriptures are therefore giving us a repeated picture.

    The Body of the Word is white like wool, as white as snow.

    And because Christ is:

    “the exact representation of his being”

    Hebrews 1:3

    the description of Christ also becomes a revelation concerning the invisible God.

    This is why the details matter.

    The head matters.

    The hair matters.

    The eyes matter.

    The face matters.

    The hands matter.

    The feet matter.

    The mouth matters.

    The voice matters.

    The entire Body becomes a vocabulary through which Scripture speaks about the Person of the Word.

    The Body Is More Than a Description

    Every detailed description of the Body of the Word is also a Scripture because it testifies about the Person of the Word.

    Jesus said:

    “These are the Scriptures that testify about me.”

    John 5:39

    Therefore, the description of His whiteness is not simply a physical observation.

    It is a testimony.

    It is a Scripture.

    It is a figure of speech.

    It is a revelation waiting to be unfolded.

    And Scripture gives us a principle for understanding this:

    “I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden since the creation of the world.”

    Matthew 13:35

    God uses visible and natural things to communicate invisible and spiritual realities.

    The Body of the Word is therefore not merely something we look at.

    It is something Scripture teaches us to understand.

    The Father Is Speaking Through the Body

    Isaiah gives us another remarkable statement:

    “The hand of the Lord will be made known to his servants.”

    Isaiah 66:14

    Why the hand?

    Because the hand is part of the body.

    The hand becomes a doorway into understanding the Body of the Word.

    And the Body becomes a doorway into understanding the Person of the Word.

    And the Person of the Word reveals the invisible Father.

    Body → Person → Father.

    This is why I believe Jesus Christ, the Head of the Church, is addressing His Church through the detailed descriptions of His Body.

    He is continually making the Father known.

    Jesus said:

    “Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father.”

    John 14:9

    And the Holy Spirit does not speak independently of Christ. Jesus said:

    “He will bring glory to me by taking from what is mine and making it known to you.”

    John 16:14

    The Spirit takes what belongs to Christ and makes it known.

    And Paul tells us:

    “The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.”

    1 Corinthians 2:10

    So there are depths in God that the Holy Spirit searches and reveals.

    Scripture Is God's Script for His Work

    There is another dimension to this revelation.

    The Scriptures are not merely records of what God has done. They are also the script through which His purposes are fulfilled.

    Again and again, Jesus said:

    “It is written…”

    Matthew 4:4, 7, 10

    And concerning His ministry:

    “Today this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”

    Luke 4:21

    The Scriptures therefore have a relationship with God's performance on Earth.

    When the Father has an intention, He opens Scripture according to that intention.

    When He is doing a work, He brings particular Scriptures into revelation.

    When the Spirit speaks to the churches, He speaks through what is being revealed:

    “Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”

    Revelation 2:7

    This makes the present question very important:

    What is the Spirit saying to the Church through the Scriptures He is opening?

    And if Christ is presently revealing Himself through the detailed descriptions of His Body, then these revelations deserve our attention.

    The Body of the Word Is Our Inheritance

    The Father has not given us Christ merely so that we can know facts about Him.

    He has given us Christ so that we can know Him.

    The Body of the Word is therefore not something we should approach casually.

    It is an inheritance.

    It is a revelation.

    It is an invitation to know the Person of the Word in greater detail.

    The Scriptures testify about Him.

    The Holy Spirit reveals Him.

    The Father is seen in Him.

    And the more the Scriptures are unfolded, the more light we receive concerning the Person of Christ and the glory of the invisible Father.

    So perhaps the question is no longer simply:

    “Do you read the Bible?”

    The deeper question is:

    “Do you recognise the Person whom the Scriptures are revealing?”

    Because the Bible is testifying.

    The Spirit is speaking.

    The Scriptures are being unfolded.

    And behind the revelation stands a Person:

    Jesus Christ, the living Word of God—the image of the invisible God.

Psalm 119:130 says: “The unfolding of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple.” Psalm 119:130 The Word must be unfolded. We can read a Scripture without necessarily seeing the revelation contained within it. We can know the sentence without knowing the Person whom the sentence reveals. That is the difference between merely reading Scripture and receiving revelation. The detailed descriptions of the Body of the Word are therefore not decorative language. They are scriptural descriptions that can be unfolded to reveal the Father. Paul describes this revelation as: “the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ.” 2 Corinthians 4:6 So the purpose of the unfolding is not simply to give us more biblical information. It is to give us the revelation knowledge of the Father. The Body of the Word: White Like Wool and Snow Consider the description John gives: “His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow.” Revelation 1:14 This is a detailed description of the Body of the Word. But John is not alone in seeing this. Daniel saw the Ancient of Days and wrote: “His clothing was as white as snow; the hair of his head was white like wool.” Daniel 7:9 Then Song of Solomon gives another description: “His appearance is like Lebanon.” Song of Solomon 5:15 Lebanon was associated with its mountainous, snow-covered appearance. The Scriptures are therefore giving us a repeated picture. The Body of the Word is white like wool, as white as snow. And because Christ is: “the exact representation of his being” Hebrews 1:3 the description of Christ also becomes a revelation concerning the invisible God. This is why the details matter. The head matters. The hair matters. The eyes matter. The face matters. The hands matter. The feet matter. The mouth matters. The voice matters. The entire Body becomes a vocabulary through which Scripture speaks about the Person of the Word. The Body Is More Than a Description Every detailed description of the Body of the Word is also a Scripture because it testifies about the Person of the Word. Jesus said: “These are the Scriptures that testify about me.” John 5:39 Therefore, the description of His whiteness is not simply a physical observation. It is a testimony. It is a Scripture. It is a figure of speech. It is a revelation waiting to be unfolded. And Scripture gives us a principle for understanding this: “I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden since the creation of the world.” Matthew 13:35 God uses visible and natural things to communicate invisible and spiritual realities. The Body of the Word is therefore not merely something we look at. It is something Scripture teaches us to understand. The Father Is Speaking Through the Body Isaiah gives us another remarkable statement: “The hand of the Lord will be made known to his servants.” Isaiah 66:14 Why the hand? Because the hand is part of the body. The hand becomes a doorway into understanding the Body of the Word. And the Body becomes a doorway into understanding the Person of the Word. And the Person of the Word reveals the invisible Father. Body → Person → Father. This is why I believe Jesus Christ, the Head of the Church, is addressing His Church through the detailed descriptions of His Body. He is continually making the Father known. Jesus said: “Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father.” John 14:9 And the Holy Spirit does not speak independently of Christ. Jesus said: “He will bring glory to me by taking from what is mine and making it known to you.” John 16:14 The Spirit takes what belongs to Christ and makes it known. And Paul tells us: “The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.” 1 Corinthians 2:10 So there are depths in God that the Holy Spirit searches and reveals. Scripture Is God's Script for His Work There is another dimension to this revelation. The Scriptures are not merely records of what God has done. They are also the script through which His purposes are fulfilled. Again and again, Jesus said: “It is written…” Matthew 4:4, 7, 10 And concerning His ministry: “Today this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.” Luke 4:21 The Scriptures therefore have a relationship with God's performance on Earth. When the Father has an intention, He opens Scripture according to that intention. When He is doing a work, He brings particular Scriptures into revelation. When the Spirit speaks to the churches, He speaks through what is being revealed: “Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” Revelation 2:7 This makes the present question very important: What is the Spirit saying to the Church through the Scriptures He is opening? And if Christ is presently revealing Himself through the detailed descriptions of His Body, then these revelations deserve our attention. The Body of the Word Is Our Inheritance The Father has not given us Christ merely so that we can know facts about Him. He has given us Christ so that we can know Him. The Body of the Word is therefore not something we should approach casually. It is an inheritance. It is a revelation. It is an invitation to know the Person of the Word in greater detail. The Scriptures testify about Him. The Holy Spirit reveals Him. The Father is seen in Him. And the more the Scriptures are unfolded, the more light we receive concerning the Person of Christ and the glory of the invisible Father. So perhaps the question is no longer simply: “Do you read the Bible?” The deeper question is: “Do you recognise the Person whom the Scriptures are revealing?” Because the Bible is testifying. The Spirit is speaking. The Scriptures are being unfolded. And behind the revelation stands a Person: Jesus Christ, the living Word of God—the image of the invisible God.

    TOPIC: RELY ON GOD _4
    ANCHOR SCRIPTURE:Daniel 1:8 (NKJV)
    “But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s delicacies, nor with the wine which he drank...”
    Devotional message:

    Yesterday, we saw that one of the ways we demonstrate our reliance upon God is through prayer. When we pray, we acknowledge that we need God and cannot successfully navigate life by our own strength.

    Today, we look at another evidence of genuine dependence upon God: choosing purity and holiness even when compromise appears attractive.Our reliance upon God is not demonstrated only by what we say in prayer; it is also demonstrated by the decisions we make when nobody is watching and when compromise appears to offer us an advantage.

    Joseph is a powerful example.When Potiphar's wife repeatedly attempted to entice him into sexual immorality, Joseph refused. His response revealed where his confidence was anchored:Genesis 39:9 (NKJV)“How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?”

    Joseph understood that compromising his purity would not merely be an offence against Potiphar or his wife—it would ultimately be sin against God.He valued his relationship with God more than the temporary pleasure being offered to him.

    Daniel demonstrated the same conviction. Although he had been taken into Babylonian captivity and was surrounded by a culture that did not honour his God, he purposed in his heart not to defile himself with the king's provisions.Daniel could have reasoned that circumstances had changed and therefore his standards could change too. Instead, he remained faithful.

    Then we see Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. When commanded to bow before Nebuchadnezzar's golden image, they refused—even when the consequence was being thrown into a fiery furnace.Their response demonstrated remarkable confidence in God:Daniel 3:17–18 (NKJV)“Our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace... But if not, let it be known to you, O king, that we do not serve your gods...”

    Child of God, one of the clearest ways you demonstrate that you trust God is by refusing to compromise your convictions when obedience becomes costly.There will be moments when an opportunity may appear attractive because it offers money, promotion, influence, relationships, pleasure, acceptance, or recognition. But you must ask yourself:“Is this worth compromising my relationship with God?”

    Remember, God does not need sin to bless you. You do not have to compromise your values to enter your destiny.Therefore, do not trade what is eternal for what is temporary.Do not exchange your relationship with God for an offer that will eventually disappear.Do not sell your convictions for temporary comfort.Stand firm. Remain pure. Walk in holiness. Trust God.

    When you refuse to compromise because you believe God is able to sustain you, you are demonstrating genuine reliance upon Him.

    PRAYER

    Heavenly Father,Give me the strength to stand firm. Help me to value my relationship with You above every temporary pleasure, opportunity, possession, or recognition.In Jesus' name, Amen.

  • SPEAKING HIS MIND......

    A Wake-Up Call to Every Believer

    By Apostle Jeremiah Nyamvura

    Scripture Reading: Revelation 3:14-22

    "He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches." — Revelation 3:22

    DEVOTION: WHEN GOD SPEAKS, THE CHURCH MUST LISTEN

    There are moments in history when God does not only want to comfort His people; He wants to correct, awaken, and redirect them. We are living in days where many voices are competing for the attention of believers — the voice of culture, the voice of human wisdom, the voice of materialism, and the voice of personal desires. Yet above all these voices, there is still a voice that must be heard: the voice of God.

    God is speaking His mind in these days.

    He is calling His people back to prayer.
    He is calling His people back to holiness.
    He is calling His people back to truth.
    He is calling His people back to a genuine relationship with Him.

    The greatest danger facing believers today is not only persecution from outside the church, but spiritual blindness within the church. A person can be surrounded by spiritual activities and still lose sensitivity to the voice of God.

    Jesus warned the church of Laodicea that they had become lukewarm. They thought they were rich, successful, and in need of nothing, but spiritually they were poor, blind, and naked. This is a powerful warning for our generation: we must never measure spiritual health by outward appearance, popularity, wealth, or human approval.

    God is looking for hearts that are surrendered.

    A CALL TO WAKE UP

    Romans 13:11 says:

    "It is time to wake up from your sleep, because our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed."

    This is a divine alarm ringing over the body of Christ. Many believers have become comfortable when they should be watchful. Many have become distracted when they should be focused. Many have become silent when they should be declaring the truth of God.

    The enemy does not always destroy faith through open attacks; sometimes he destroys faith through gradual compromise. Little by little, prayer becomes less important. The Word of God becomes less valued. Sin becomes acceptable. The fear of God becomes forgotten.

    But today, God is calling His people to arise.

    GOD IS RESTORING TRUE WORSHIP

    The days we are living in require believers who do not only speak about God but walk with God.

    God is not impressed by religious performance without obedience. He is not looking for crowds without commitment. He is not looking for people who only seek His blessings but refuse His correction.

    True worship begins when our hearts are completely surrendered to Him.

    Jesus said in John 4:23:

    "The true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth."

    The world needs believers who carry the presence of God. Families need believers who demonstrate Christ-like character. Communities need believers who are examples of righteousness and love.

    DO NOT LOSE YOUR SPIRITUAL DISCERNMENT

    In Matthew 24:24, Jesus warned that deception would increase in the last days. This means every believer must grow in spiritual maturity and discernment.

    Not everything that looks spiritual is from God.
    Not every voice that mentions God represents God.
    Not every opportunity is a divine opportunity.

    We must return to the Word of God, because the Word gives us direction, correction, and protection.

    A MESSAGE TO THE CHURCH TODAY

    Beloved believer, this is the hour to examine your heart.

    Ask yourself:

    - Am I still passionate about the things of God?
    - Has my love for Christ grown stronger or weaker?
    - Am I seeking God or only seeking what God can give me?
    - Am I living as a light in a dark world?

    God is not calling us to fear the days ahead; He is calling us to prepare for them.

    A prepared believer will not be shaken by confusion.
    A praying believer will not be overcome by fear.
    A believer rooted in Christ will stand when everything else is changing.

    PRAYER

    Father, open our spiritual ears so that we may hear Your voice clearly. Remove every distraction that has taken our attention away from You. Restore our hunger for Your Word, our passion for prayer, and our desire for holiness.

    Help us to be faithful witnesses in these last days. Let our lives reflect Christ wherever we go. Wake up Your church and prepare us for the coming of Your Kingdom.

    In Jesus Christ's name, Amen.

    "The greatest need of this generation is not more noise; it is a people who can hear the voice of God."

    DATE: MONDAY 24TH AUGUST 2026

    TOPIC: NOTHING GOOD TO OFFER

    MEMORIZE:
    "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you." James 4:7 (KJV)

    BIBLE READING: LUKE 11:24-26
    24 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I came out.

    25 And when he cometh, he findeth it swept and garnished.

    26 Then goeth he, and taketh to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in, and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first.

    MESSAGE:
    The devil has two types of captives: the willing captives and the unwilling captives. An unwilling captive is someone who has entered either willingly or unwillingly into the trap of the devil but now wants to be delivered. Such a fellow will be set free from the devil’s hold when an anointed child of God prays for him or her.

    A willing captive, on the other hand, is someone who also gets into the devil’s hold either willingly or unwillingly but refuses to repent or be delivered because of the perceived benefits he or she is getting by serving satan. Even if such a fellow is forcefully delivered, he or she will return to the devil’s camp, and this time around, the bondage will be much worse because the demon(s) that were previously cast out will be multiplied sevenfold (Matthew 12:43-45).

    Many years ago, we discovered that a witch was among us in the church. We prayed for her to be delivered; however, she remained in bondage. We then asked her if she wanted to be free, and she said, “No. Do you want me to lose the power that I use to control my husband?” Such thinking is very unfortunate because those who serve the devil are headed for eternal damnation if they do not repent.

    A woman whose children were dying one after the other went to seek help from a prophet because she needed him to pray to God for their protection.
    While waiting for him, his wife asked her why she wanted to see her husband. She explained why she had come, and the prophet’s wife gave her a kolanut to eat, telling her it would solve her problem and that she didn’t need to wait for her husband again.

    When she went to sleep that night, she suddenly found herself among some witches in the spirit realm. They welcomed her and promised to protect her children if she joined them. She agreed based on their promise, and after some time, it became her turn to supply the blood that the coven would drink. At that point, she surrendered her husband to be sacrificed.
    More time passed, and it became her turn again to supply blood. This time, however, the witches asked her to sacrifice her children. That was when she decided to seek God’s help to save her children from the devil’s plan. Thank God she came to the church, and God delivered her.

    Beloved, the devil offers nothing good or lasting. For everything he gives, he takes a thousandfold in return. I pray that God grants you the grace to avoid his traps, and if he currently has any hold over you and you are willing to be set free, I decree your liberty now, in Jesus’ name.

    KEY POINT:
    The devil has nothing good to give. Those who serve him are headed for eternal damnation.

    The meaning about power and faith



    From the beginning, the reading focuses on the idea that the power and success of white people throughout history did not happen by accident. It explains how white people have spread across different parts of the world, built powerful nations, gained wealth, and influenced other countries. What makes this idea different is that their success is connected to promises that God made in the Bible. The reading connects white people to the biblical people of Israel. A lot of attention is given to the promises God made to Abraham and his descendants. These promises included becoming a great nation, having many descendants, receiving blessings, and being protected. The events that happened throughout history are presented as examples of those promises being fulfilled. This makes the main point easier to understand because the reading is trying to show that God keeps His word even when people may not realize what is happening. Faith is another major part of the reading. Faith is explained as more than just believing that something is true. It means trusting a promise enough to actually act on it. The reading explains that the Greek word connected to faith describes action based on belief and confidence. This idea becomes even more important when it explains saving faith. Saving faith means acting on God’s promises and allowing Him to change a person’s life. Near the end, people are separated into two groups called the “Two Camps.” The first camp is made up of people who reject God’s promises and choose to live according to their own decisions. The second camp includes people who trust God’s promises and actually act on them. The reading connects history with faith instead of looking at power as something that only comes from money, land, or strength. It shows how the same events can be understood differently depending on a person’s beliefs. The main message is that trusting God is supposed to be shown through actions, not just words or thoughts. Faith is presented as something that can guide a person’s choices and allow God’s promises to have an effect on their life.

  • Daily devotion for August 24th
    Real Heroes And Real Life
    These were the priests and Levites who returned with Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel and with Jeshua

    Nehemiah 12:1a
    This takes us back to the heroes of the past. Zerubbabel led the first return from Babylonian captivity to Jerusalem in 538 BC, almost one hundred years earlier than Nehemiah's day. Nehemiah is looking back at these men who led that procession. Zerubbabel was a priest, and Jeshua was a Levite. They led a company of Israelites back to the city of Jerusalem to rebuild the temple. Verse 7 says that they were the leaders of the priests and their associates in the days of Jeshua.

    Verses 22-26 give the chronological time when the records that we have just looked at were recorded. The passage does not sound very interesting, but we are told that for the first group, the family heads of the Levites... were recorded in the reign of Darius the Persian. That meant that there was a time when their names were kept as temple records, but they were not actually recorded permanently until the days of Darius the Second. This would put that record somewhere between 423 and 404 BC, somewhat later than Nehemiah. Evidently some later hand added this so that we might know when it was written.

    Then there is another mention in verse 23 of the book of the annals, meaning the annals of the kings of Judah. One of them is especially mentioned in the reference to David, the man of God. What a remarkable influence David had! F. B. Meyer says, How long the influence of David has lingered over the world, like the afterglow of a sunset. Yet David had a terrible record of evil in his life. He fell into adultery with Bathsheba and was involved in the murder of her husband. Because his heart was set on God, however, and he took advantage of God's provision for forgiveness, David is known to history as the man after God's own heart.

    The passage teaches us that we must not forget past heroes, the men and women of fame and glory whom God has used in former days. I have been reading again the writings of some of my early spiritual heroes. I would urge you, on the basis of a passage like this, to read biography! It will bless you. It will challenge you and strengthen you to see how God has used men and women of the past to stand against the temptations and pressures of the world and accomplish much for His glory.

    This passage also teaches us that the deeds of God are part of the record of history. That is one of the great advantages of Christianity over all the other religions of the world. Most of them are religious philosophies or simply the musings of men meditating upon various aspects of life. Many of them are a record of visions and dreams of dubious origin. But when you come to the record of the Bible, it is based upon facts. It is not legend, myth, or fiction. It is not a record of philosophies or the inventions of humans. It is made up of historic facts. God grounds these great events in the history of the world itself.

    Lord thank You for the lessons I can learn from those who have served You in the past and for the very real facts of history, which teach me so much about You.
