"So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God." - 1 Corinthians 10:31 When it comes to taking care of our health, we often joke more than we act. We know what we should do, but deep down, we just do not feel like doing it. Ice cream seems more satisfying than discipline, and comfort almost always wins out over effort. But what if we stopped treating our physical heal...  Read More

"Dear friend, I pray that you are prospering in every way and are in good health, just as your whole life is going well." - 3 John 1:2 There’s a lot of noise out there about getting healthy. Whether it’s joining a gym, trying a new diet, or chasing physical results, health has become a major focus. But the truth is, what the world calls healthy and what God wants for your life might not always be ...  Read More

"Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ." - Colossians 3:23-24 There is a hidden part of obedience that no one talks about much. It is the part where you are building what God told you to build, and nobody seems to notice. The part where you are doing the work, day ...  Read More

"Let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up." - Galatians 6:9 There will be days when you want to quit. When the things God has called you to do feel too heavy. When you feel like the progress is too slow, the results are too small, and the weight is too much. In moments like that, you have to remember your “why.” Why did you say yes to God in the fir...  Read More

"Do not be afraid of them. Remember the Lord, who is great and awesome, and fight for your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wives, and your homes." - Nehemiah 4:14 When Nehemiah gathered the people to rebuild the wall around Jerusalem, it looked like a construction project on the surface. But if you really look at what was happening, you’ll see this was never just about a wall. This was a...  Read More

“Don’t be afraid of them. Remember the great and awe-inspiring Lord, and fight for your countrymen, your sons and daughters, your wives and homes.” - Nehemiah 4:14 There are moments when following God’s vision will wear you out. The work gets heavy. The critics get loud. And before long, even the strongest believers begin to question if the vision is worth it. That’s exactly what happened in Nehem...  Read More

“And we prayed to our God and set a guard as a protection against them day and night.” - Nehemiah 4:9 Pursuing God’s vision will not be easy. If you’ve ever stepped out in faith, you already know that. The moment you say yes to God, the enemy starts drawing up his plan to stop you. That is not a coincidence. That is spiritual resistance. Nehemiah faced it every step of the way. The moment he began...  Read More

"So we rebuilt the wall until all of it reached half its height, for the people worked with all their heart." - Nehemiah 4:6 Nehemiah had a burden. He prayed. He believed God for a vision bigger than himself. But what came next was just as important. God didn’t call Nehemiah to rebuild the wall of Jerusalem by himself. He called him to lead others. And then, God provided the right people at the ri...  Read More

"So the wall was finished on the twenty-fifth day of the month Elul, in fifty-two days." - Nehemiah 6:15 Nehemiah was never supposed to be the guy who would build the city. He wasn’t a contractor. He wasn’t a general. He wasn’t a strategist or a builder. He was a cupbearer. His job was to serve drinks and stay quiet in the presence of royalty. And yet, when God gave him a vision, Nehemiah stepped ...  Read More

"Our God will fight for us" - Nehemiah 4:20 There will always be risk when you follow God. That’s the part no one talks about. We love the idea of blessing and favor and open doors, but we often forget that the path to purpose usually walks straight through danger and opposition. Nehemiah knew that firsthand. As he stepped into the vision God gave him, he also stepped into a fight. The moment he b...  Read More

"And the king granted me what I asked, for the good hand of my God was upon me." - Nehemiah 2:8 When God gives you a vision, He never leaves you empty-handed. That is one of the clearest lessons from Nehemiah’s story. God had called him to rebuild the broken walls of Jerusalem, but Nehemiah had no materials, no money, and no manpower. On paper, the plan was impossible. But when Nehemiah stepped ou...  Read More

"And the king said to me, 'What are you requesting?' So I prayed to the God of heaven." - Nehemiah 2:4 Have you ever looked around at your life and wondered, “Why am I here? Why this job, this school, this neighborhood, this circle of people? Maybe it feels random or even frustrating. But what if it is not? What if God has placed you exactly where you are for a reason? Nehemiah was not a pastor or...  Read More
