(USA) Rebuild With God's Vision by D*an Bockenfeld of IIT
By J*oshua Hong
This is a part of D*an Bockenfeld's message "Rebuild with God's Vision:"
Nehemiah 1:1-11
Key verse 1:9 “But if you return to me and obey my commands, then even if your exiled people are at the farthest horizon, I will gather them from there and bring them to the a place I have chosen as a dwelling for my Name.”
Welcome to another rendition of the 2022 key verse message for our ministry. This will be the third time we will be having a message from our key verse passage this year, and it is just over halfway through the year [...] Today, I want to focus on that vision for rebuilding. It is not something that is taken lightly, and Nehemiah has that vision for Jerusalem, a vision from God [...] We each have a struggle that we deal with. It might not be major, but it is still there. In order to rebuild, we need to acknowledge those struggles and help each other through them. We have to be honest about our struggles. We need to be there for each other. We need to pray for God’s presence in each of our lives, that it gives us strength and peace through the hard times. We need to repent of our sins and stand before our Lord with a sincere desire to come together to serve him and love him. It is not about us but about each other. We are called to love God and love each other. We have to do both, only then can there be rebuilding.

May God bless IIT ministry and D*an to rebuild students, families, and ministry with God's vision.
