When God’s People Humble Themselves…

Scripture

Nehemiah 8

5 Ezra stood on the platform in full view of all the people. When they saw him open the book, they all rose to their feet.
6 Then Ezra praised the LORD, the great God, and all the people chanted, “Amen! Amen!” as they lifted their hands. Then they bowed down and worshiped the LORD with their faces to the ground.

Observation

This is how God’s people should have always responded to the Word of God. Ezra had recently discovered the Word of God and the people were hearing the Word of God for probably the first time. It had a powerful impact on the people. God’s hand was on them.

They had neglected the things of God for a long time and now they had come back to Him. It was a time of revival. God’s Spirit was moving among His people. I desire to see that happen at our church. How about you?

Application

I will continue to pray for the hand of the Lord to be on His people at our church. How about you?

Prayer

Heavenly Father, I desire to see this happen at our church. This past Sunday it was neat to see so many people make decisions for You. I pray that those people will cause a movement that will shake our city. God do a mighty work within and through us, Your people at Christ Fellowship. Be glorified in us and through us and use us to reach the city. Help normal at our church always be supernaturally abnormal and help us to expect You to show up in powerful and mighty ways. You are awesome. You are Mighty to save. I pray that this Sunday more people will find salvation!
