But if you return to me and obey my commands and live by them, then even if you are exiled to the ends of the earth, I will bring you back to the place I have chosen for my name to be honored.’ (Nehemiah 1:9 NLT)
“O Lord God of Heaven, the great and awesome God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, let your ear be attentive …(Neh 1:5-6)” We offer up our gratitude today for your love. You are faithful in every generation. You are the perfect covenant keeper O God. Yet we struggle daily to live as you have called us to live. We too often are consumed with our own pleasures, and the pursuit of our own desires. We too often worship the idols of our heart rather than YOU the great and awesome God of heaven. May we return today, may we obey your commands and live by them. May you honor your name in this place through your people. Renew our hearts and our desires to honor you. Be faithful O God, restore what the years have taken, so that we may again bring honor to You Great NAME.
