A Lesson of Obedience…

February 19, 2014 by Ema Gates Leave a Comment

This post is also available in: Romanian

These days, as I was studying the book of Ezra, I was fascinated to see the way in which God leads historical events according to a well established plan.

I could see God stirring up the spirit of Cyrus, Zerubbabel, Ezra and Nehemiah in order to accomplish His will. I could see how the Isaiah’s prophecy regarding the return of the people from the Babylonian captivity and the rebuilding of the House of the Lord, the temple from Jerusalem, came true. I could see how a part of the people that came back to Jerusalem, started to build the altar and the foundation of the temple.

For 18 years they hadn’t been able to continue the work due to internal and external obstacles. I understood that only those who belong to the people of God are able to build the house of the Lord, but only if their heart obeys God.

We are also the people of God. We are called to build the Church of Christ. We are called to build the Kingdom of God by using our gifts, serving and working under the guidance of the Holy Spirit of God.

Nowadays, when we have to face climate changes, major social and political conflicts, extreme poverty, diseases or armed conflicts, we are called to bring Christ into our community in a practical way.

I would like to invite you to show Christ to those who need it so much. I invite you to join Charis ministry in this pursuit of building the Body of Christ in Romania.
