Isaiah 58:12 (NKJV).
\”Those from among you shall build the old waste places; You shall raise up the foundations of many generations; and you shall be called the Repairer of the Breach, the Restorer of Streets to Dwell In\”.
Genesis 2:28
\”And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth\”.
As the devil steals, kills and destroys through people, God gives life, provides hope in abundance . He builds through people, as many as are sons of God and are called by His name. Sometimes, before building, certain things have to be destroyed or taken out of the way; In Jeremiah .1:10. God told Jeremiah that
\”Today, I appointed you to stand up against nation\’s and kingdoms some you must uproot and tear down, destroy and overthrow others you must build up and plant\”.
Destroying is usually easier than building and in the same way fewer people take the narrow road that leads to life, fewer people are also willing to commit themselves to the sacrifices necessary to build. Building requires time and patience. Building also requires wisdom,
Prov.24:3. Says \”A house is built by wisdom and becomes strong through good sense\”.
The Lord will build you up and use you to build up the lives of others. Keep growing spiritually. Keep building up yourself in your most holy faith, Jude 20. Also, keep building up your character, skills and other abilities, 1Sam.16:18, Dan.1:4&20.
The Bible says that except the Lord builds, those that build labour in vain, Psa. 27:1.
The Lord will build, repair and replenish through you. He will give you creative ideas and supernatural strength and favour to accomplish them. You will supernaturally overcome every obstacle on your way so that nothing can stop you from actualizing great results.
Zech.4:6-7. Then He said to me \”This is what the Lord says to Zerubbabel ; it is not by force nor by strength, but by my Spirit, says the Lord of heaven\’s armies. Nothing, not even mighty mountain will stand in Zerubbabel\’s way, it will become a level plain before him and when Zerubbabel sets the final stone of the temple in place , the people will shout May God Bless it! May God bless it!\”. ( NLT).
You will start strong and finish well in Jesus name 🙏. May God enable You to build, repair and replenish not only structural projects but human lives, families, societies, organizations, economies and parastatals.
God Almighty will make you an influencial person amongst your contemporary and you will not slack in anyway amen! Like the same way Jesus told Peter that He will make him a fisher of men. God will use you to restore good things that have been long lost and good things that people have even lost hope of experiencing again. So many things will work again and will be possible just because of you. God will surely cause His fingers to move in favor of you. This year we shall see His mighty works in our lives and families and testify that indeed this is the work of his fingers like the Psalmist did tesified in psalm 8:3. SHALOM!!. ✍️ BlessingOnugha ❤️.
