Make it personal
Here we find Nehemiah getting news of his hometown and devastated because it is left in ruins and be people are suffering, so He begins to fast and pray and cry before the Lord. What we are doing is much like Nehemiah, the people are afflicted christians are hurting, and the enemy is attacking the body of Christ. We must see the condition of the people in order to answer the call of God, we must see our condition. God has used great men and women of God throughout the Bible and they all had some very serious conditions, yet God used them. We must take a look at ourselves, and be willing to cry out to God for ourselves, lay every burden at his feet and move forward as we help others. Never forget where you come from, never forget the mission that has been laid in front of us and always remember He has enable us through his grace to answer the condition of those souls he has assigned to our lives.
Prayer is key, Fasting is key, to answer any problem we must look to him. Our focus must be on him, and our flesh must be crucified, in order to be risen with him. As we study and train, we must be the first partakers of the word, the word we preach must hit us first, change happens in us first and then to the people. We must alway keep in mind, who God has made us..We are Kings in his Kingdom. We gain territory by winning the hearts and minds of people to Jesus. Yes we preach salvation, but we must live the Kingdom!
