Mercy

CCLI Song # 7000689

Verse 1

I will kneel in the dust

at the foot of the cross

Where mercy paid for me

 

Where the wrath I deserve

it is gone it has passed

Your blood has hidden me

 

Chorus 1

Mercy mercy as endless as the sea

I'll sing Your hallelujah

for all eternity

We will lift up the cup

and the bread we will break

Remembering Your love

 

We were fallen from grace

but You took all our shame

And nailed it to a cross

 

Chorus 1

Mercy mercy as endless as the sea

I'll sing Your hallelujah

for all eternity

(2X)

 

Chorus 2

May I never lose the wonder

O the wonder of Your mercy

May I sing Your hallelujah hallelujah

O the wonder of Your mercy

May I sing Your hallelujah hallelujah

Amen

I will kneel in the dust

at the foot of the cross

Sep 22, 2024 "Revival" (Nehemiah 9:1-8)


Revival

Nehemiah 9:1-8

 

In the book of Nehemiah, the titular character come back to rebuild the wall and, with God's help, he and the Israelites living there rebuild the wall in 52 days.

 

In chapter 8, the people listen to the word of God and celebrate the festival of booths. In chapter 9, we read that the people after hearing the word and experiencing God's grace, the people confess their sins and repent.

 

Nehemiah 9:1-2 ESV

[1] Now on the twenty-fourth day of this month the people of Israel were assembled with fasting and in sackcloth, and with earth on their heads. [2] And the Israelites separated themselves from all foreigners and stood and confessed their sins and the iniquities of their fathers.  

 

We also read that the Israelites separate themselves from the foreigners. This separation required action and had consequences on their lives.

 

Nehemiah 9:3 ESV

[3] And they stood up in their place and read from the Book of the Law of the Lord their God for a quarter of the day; for another quarter of it they made confession and worshiped the Lord their God.  

 

True repentance involves action as we see in verses 1 and 2.  Another aspect of true repentance also involves is immersing yourself in God. This involves reading and hearing God's word as well as praising Him. We live a life or worship.

 

Romans 12:1-2 ESV

[1]  I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. [2] Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.  

 

We also need to make a conscious choice to live a life of living sacrifice

 

True revival also leads to a life of gratitude. We do not just give thanks for success for or answered prayers but an understanding of who God is and what God has done for us. God alone is sufficient regardless of our circumstances.  

 

Nehemiah 9:6-7 ESV

[6]  “You are the Lord, you alone. You have made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them; and you preserve all of them; and the host of heaven worships you. [7] You are the Lord, the God who chose Abram and brought him out of Ur of the Chaldeans and gave him the name Abraham.

Sep 15, 2024 "The Wall" (Nehemiah 6:15-7:4)

The Wall

Nehemiah 6:15-7:4

 

In real life, we continually face problems and obstacles even after large victories. Life is not a fairy tale and neither is the Bible.

 

The walls were built in 52 days despite, opposition, ridicule and even death threats. This was a testament that it was God who had done this, and all the nations knew this.

 

Nehemiah 6:16 ESV

[16] And when all our enemies heard of it, all the nations around us were afraid and fell greatly in their own esteem, for they perceived that this work had been accomplished with the help of our God.  

 

Nehemiah built the wall to protect the temple. The wall is not just a physical wall, but a spiritual wall as well.

 

Nehemiah 7:1 ESV

[1] Now when the wall had been built and I had set up the doors, and the gatekeepers, the singers, and the Levites had been appointed,  

 

Nehemiah sets gates and gate keepers. The leader of the gate keepers has to have special qualities. Nehemiah wanted someone who feared God. These men were full of integrity and took sin seriously.  

 

Nehemiah 7:2 ESV

[2] I gave my brother Hanani and Hananiah the governor of the castle charge over Jerusalem, for he was a more faithful and God-fearing man than many.  

 

Guarding our faith is not something we can do alone. We need to be in a community and support one another.  We pray together to keep faith. Difficult times will come, and a church can help one another to overcome difficult times. We all must be involved.  

 

Nehemiah 7:3 ESV

[3] And I said to them, “Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun is hot. And while they are still standing guard, let them shut and bar the doors. Appoint guards from among the inhabitants of Jerusalem, some at their guard posts and some in front of their own homes.”  

 

The people building the wall put that before their own homes. Instead of building their homes, they wanted to protect the temple first. Their priority was God and this is why they could build the wall first.

 

Nehemiah 7:4 ESV

[4] The city was wide and large, but the people within it were few, and no houses had been rebuilt.  

 

Just like Nehemiah and the people who rebuilt the wall, we will face problems. We need to set our priorities right and fear God. Loyalty is not enough. We need to revere God.
