Angels On The Wall

Good morning

Scripture reading: Nehemiah 4

Worship song: The Battle Is Not Yours

 

Meditation:

    Angels On The Wall is a nonfiction book by Pastor Wallace Brown and his wife, Mary, about their unexpected ordeal when they moved to a poverty-stricken area in Birmingham, England, to pastor at a synagogue where membership was rapidly decreasing. What they did not know before their arrival was that the church grounds were used by gangs and the home where they were to reside was used as the gang's headquarters. The gang was determined to intimidate and terrify them by hurling stones at the windows, burning the fence, and threatening to harm their children but their evil demise did not startle the pastor. The Browns, along with their children, and some congregation members circled the building multiple times, praying for divine angels to serve as protectors. The gang jeered and mocked, but one by one they retreated and gave up terrorizing the community. 

    This testimony exemplifies the miraculous power of God in situations that require His divine intervention. Their unwavering faith and fervent prayer prompted divine action resulting in their victory over the gang members and restoring freedom to the community from the perils posed by malicious invaders. Their story reflects the account of Nehemiah's encounter when he went to rebuild the wall that was torn down, and succeeded over his adversaries with God's intervention. 

    As children of God, we will face opposition from the enemy, however, we must remain encouraged for God never loses a battle.

Let us pray:

    Dear Heavenly Father, Alpha, and Omega, God of Israel, we express sincere gratitude to you for extending grace and mercy to us. Lord, all honour, glory, and praise belong to you. We seek courage, Almighty God, to withstand the wiles of the adversary and triumph victoriously over his plans. Abba Father, may we stand firm in your word, exercise our faith, and trust your divine plan recognizing you as the same God who delivered Nehemiah from Sanballat and Tobia. Almighty God, amidst challenges and difficult situations, may we maintain our focus and remain resolute, recognizing that the battles we encounter belong to you and you have never been defeated. May we acknowledge that without your intervention, we cannot prevail over our adversaries. Lord, we surrender our struggles and challenges into your capable hands in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Redeemer. Amen. 

Wishing you peace and blessings. 💕✌🙏
