Word 1
Study Of The Book Of Nehemiah - Rebuilding The Broken Walls & Lives Of The Captivity Returnees By Faith! | Neh. 12:27-37
• Neh. 11:27-29 After the completion of Jerusalem’s wall, a revival of the people broke out. After the revival, Nehemiah took steps to repopulate the city. These two factors explain why the dedication of the wall was delayed. The word “dedication” (Heb. hanukkâ) is translated in English as “Hanukkah.” The festival of Hanukkah developed from the experience of the Jewish people in rededicating the temple after its desecration by the Syrians and the subsequent revolt of the Maccabees in the second century B.C. The people celebrated with gladness, referring not only to their festivity but also to the worship of God. Thanksgivings, a term commonly found in the Book of Psalms (Psa_147:7), means “public acknowledgment,” “to declare aloud, in public, to another.” This word, along with singing and instruments, suggests the use of the Psalms in musical settings with words of praise and instrumental accompaniment.

Word 2
Study Of The Book Of Nehemiah - Rebuilding The Broken Walls & Lives Of The Captivity Returnees By Faith! | Neh. 12:27-37
• Neh. 12:30 Before the feast is celebrated, the priests and the Levites first purify themselves and then the people, the gates and the wall. There can be no real dedication without purification. It is a purification with water. The washing with water through the Word is always necessary (Eph_5:26). In this way we come to confess and forsake iniquity and become clean.

Word 3
Study Of The Book Of Nehemiah - Rebuilding The Broken Walls & Lives Of The Captivity Returnees By Faith! | Neh. 12:27-37
• Neh. 12:31-37 By climbing the wall and walking over it, the wall becomes the property of the people (cf. Jos_1:3). In this way the people take possession of what lies within the wall. The walk on the wall is not meant to look at everything outside the city, but to look at everything inside. Separation is not negative, but positive. It is about what is dedicated to God. This can only be done by separating it from what is not dedicated to God. Going over the wall therefore gives the people a wide impression of the location of the city and how glorious God’s temple is. The wall of separation around our lives has the same purpose. It is intended that we walk on it with thanksgiving for all that God has given us. Then we will not fall into sour sectarianism, but our lives will be a testimony of what God has done in it. In the first place for our children, as well as for all those around us. When we fix our eyes on the Lord Jesus, we come to the Water Gate in the east. The east speaks among other things of the future, of the expectation of the Lord Jesus. Water speaks not only of refreshment but also of cleansing. We are looking forward to Him and this will have a purifying effect on us, because “everyone who has this hope [fixed] on Him purifies himself, just as He is pure” (1Jn_3:3).

Personal Supplication
Father, in the name of Jesus, thank You for the Power of purity that called me out of darkness into the glorious light of the gospel. Let this light shine on in me by the power of the Holy Spirit.
1 Pet 2:9
9 But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;

Daily Covenant Favor Declaration
I decree in the name of Jesus, from this moment forward, I see myself the way God sees me. I am highly favoured of the Lord. I am crowned with glory and honour. I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.
I am reigning as a king in life through the one man Jesus Christ

JESUS IS LORD!
