“WITH THE HELP OF OUR GOD!”

Nehemiah 6:15-16 (ESV)
“15 So the wall was finished on the twenty-fifth day of the month Elul, in FIFTY-TWO DAYS.
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 was used by GOD to rebuild the wall of Jerusalem. Everyone around the task said it was a task that was far beyond the skills and abilities of Nehemiah and the ones assisting him.  

When there is something that SEEMS unattainable, too hard to be accomplished, that is when GOD gains GLORY! In FIFTY-TWO DAYS the wall was finished! WHEN ALL THE ENEMIES HEARD OF IT and fell greatly in their own esteem. How could Nehemiah and his helpers have done something in FIFTY-TWO DAYS that everyone knew should have taken SO MUCH longer???

“WITH THE HELP OF OUR GOD” there is NOTHING, NOTHING that is impossible! JESUS says in Matthew 19:26 “With man this is impossible, but with GOD “all things” are possible." It has been said that ALL means ALL! Since GOD “spoke” these worlds into existence, performing what we SEE as miracles is an every day occurrence for HIM. Isaiah 42:5 says that GOD gives breath to the people of the earth! Let’s not attempt to place limitations derived from our earthly minds on a GOD WHO has NONE! We need to accept that ANYTHING is possible “WITH THE HELP OF OUR GOD”!!!
