My storm is still going, and I do some times fall into temptations to loose my temper. However I have God's Word and it feeds my Holy Spirit, keeping me cool, calm, and collected. I also surround myself with friends who are also walking the same journey as I am. None of us are perfect, but we do have the perfect high Priest in Heaven, Jesus Christ, advocating on our behalf to God. My circle of friends are oh so kind to understand we are all rebuilding the same wall. This wall is made of God's Word written on our heart, and when one of us are low on material (scriptures), its our duty as brothers and sisters in Christ, to be a lender. Thus, providing the strength needed through God's word, for our struggling spiritual sibling to rely on God for protection and provision.

With this being said, Nehemiah 3 assisted in carrying me through my storm. I began preparing for the building of God's duties for me with the instructions provided in Nehemiah 3:1. Eliashib, the high priest, and his high priest brothers, not only assisted in rebuilding Jerusalem, but also blessed the walls, and gates after their assembly. Sanctifying the establishment builds a strong foundation. Glory be to God! The high priest didn't stop there! In every construction, they sanctified its assembly through prayer; worshiping, glorifying, and honoring God for His mercy, strength, and guidance! Glory be to God!.

"Hi Dustin!!!!
God heard our prayers and blessed me with an amazing home! However! It needs to be blessed and purified. And I want to return it for God's use!"
"Hi Jalisa! Praise God! I'm so happy to hear that! Been praying"
"God heard it! It's in the center of Dallas! University Park"
"Amen! We should do a house blessing!"

Nehemiah 3:2-32 presents specifics regarding how each part of Jerusalem was rebuilt. The Jewish remnant community all took part in using their God given talents for the ultimate renovation. From the men of Jericho, to the goldsmith's son.

I was over whelmed with excitement. In awe, I prayed;


"Dear Heavenly Father,
I'm so enthusiastic! Excited! Please use me as Your Host for the bible studies, revivals, and gatherings in Your name! The same apartment You are blessing me with, I ask that You use for Your Will! To spread Your Word! Oh Heavenly Father, I'm so excited!"

God is so compassionate! In so many ways The Book of Nehemiah shows God's love for us, but my favorite one of all is, God Never Changes! Even til this day, decades later, God's faithfulness is still strong and He will flex His faith in His time. All you need is faith in Jesus, God's Word, and patience.

I give God all my blessings, glory, and honor, because remember, this is all happening in the midst of my storm. I am grateful for the simple opportunities God blesses me with, and you should be too!
