May 15, 2013 – Ezra 5
Dear Saints,
Today we prayerfully Feast in Ezra 5 . Here we
see that God has mercy on his people. God sent a prophet to let his people know it
was time to rebuild the temple. Satan
is quick to influence someone to try and stop the people of the Lord from any
good work. “3 At the same time Tattenai the governor of the
province Beyond the River and Shethar-bozenai and their associates came to
them and spoke to them thus: “Who gave you a decree to build this house and
to finish this structure?” 4 They also asked them this: “What are the names
of the men who are building this building?”” Ezra 5:3-4 English
Standard Version (ESV). The enemy is
quick to confront the saints and ask them by whose authority they are
proceeding with good works. It is
somewhat intimidating when somebody says; “What is your name?” “19 and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who
believe, according to the working of his great might 20 that he worked in
Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in
the heavenly places, 21 far above all rule and authority and power and
dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also
in the one to come. 22 And he put all things under his feet and gave him as
head over all things to the church,” Ephesians 1:19-22 ESV. This s the answer saints; Jesus is the head
of the church! Those that have
accepted Jesus are the body of the Church.
Therefore when you are doing a good work and someone says; “By whose
authority are you doing this?” You can
simply lovingly reply; “Jesus”!
Is Jesus is calling out to you? Do you hear
that small voice calling; sinner com home?
Do you want to choose good over evil? If the answer is yes please

“Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who
has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15 ESV.
This is one of the reasons we try to read every word in God’s
Word. We need to nourish ourselves in
the Word of God to stand in the battle. “Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against
the schemes of the devil.” Ephesians 6:11 ESV.
