Have you ever tried to build something? Have you ever reached out or started a work for the Lord? If not, I want to encourage you. It is time for you to start ministering and reaching out for the Lord and to extend His Kingdom. All of us have a Ministry from the time we are saved. Go read about it in Romans 12. So do not hold back any longer and get started, will you?

When you start to do a work it is always the same that happens. As soon as you start the enemy wants to destroy it and stop it. So you will always face opposition. I always said to my wife. "You know honey. I don't care about the attacks of the devil. He is a looser and will not succeed anyways. What really bothers me are the attacks from inside the camp."

I hate it the most when the enemy uses the people that are close to you. Or sometimes he uses things that are in your heart and you would love to do them, like ministry opportunities. Oh... I would love to go preach there... I would love to see my old friend. I would love to go do that... but what did the Lord say?

I found lately that as soon as I am back on track and doing what the Lord called me to do, that many distractions are coming my way and want to hinder the work of the Lord. I am so thankful for people like Nehemiah, who shows us the way and tell us how to handle this. I am encouraged to really just keep going and trying to fulfill the work the Lord has given us in this Ministry, no matter what comes our path! Come on... let us all move forward and really extend His Kingdom and fulfill the plan God has for us.
