Arise and Rebuild by Marcel & Jacqueline Bruff

Arise And Rebuild.

(November 18th)

In the face of adversity, believers are called to rise above their circumstances, trusting in God's sovereignty and promises.

"Arise And Rebuild" resonates deeply with Christians, echoing the themes of restoration, renewal, and redemption found throughout Scripture.

The Bible has calls to arise and rebuild. In various books, we see Nehemiah's courageous leadership as he rallied the people to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem, despite opposition and challenges. (Nehemiah 2:17)

This story is a reminder of the importance of Christian, perseverance, and faith in the rebuilding process.

God's Promise of Restoration

God declares, "For I will restore health to you and heal you of your wounds." This promise underscores God's desire to restore and rebuild His people, bringing healing and wholeness to those who trust in Him. (Jeremiah 30:17)

Faith plays a crucial role in the process of arising and rebuilding. Hebrews 11:1 defines faith as "the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." It is this faith that enables believers to trust God's promises, even when circumstances seem insurmountable.

Practical Applications.

1. Prayer and Reflection. Spend time in prayer, seeking God's guidance and wisdom as you navigate challenges.

2. Support System. Engage with your church community or support group, encouraging one another and working together towards restoration.

3. Service to Others. Look for opportunities to serve others, using your gifts and talents to build up those around you.

4. Personal Growth. Invest in your personal growth through Bible study, mentorship, and skill development.

Conclusion

"Arise And Rebuild" is not just a call to action; it's a declaration of faith in God's power to restore and renew. As Christians, we are reminded that "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me"

(Philippians 4:13).

Let us rise with hope and rebuild with faith, trusting in the God who makes all things new Revelation 21:5.

Amen.
