The Remnant.
"And they said unto me, The remnant that are left of the captivity there in the province are in great affliction and reproach: the wall of Jerusalem also is broken down, and the gates thereof are burned with fire. And it came to pass, when I heard these words, that I sat down and wept, and mourned certain days, and fasted, and prayed before the God of heaven," (Nehemiah 1:3, 4 KJV). Murder without shame, and killing without rage, people are just doing it to do it. Evil has surely fallen on America, and it corrupts the minds of men and women to kill, steal, and destroy. The eyes of many have become so distorted and blinded to the darkness that floods this world. Neither men nor women have a conscience anymore. They don't recognize that the devil is doing all he can to pull whoever he can from the will of God. Shootings and killings have become the usual topic heard on the local news. We sure have fallen far from God, which means God's judgment will come. In the middle of all the turmoil and chaos in this world, there is still hope to those that fight back on their knees in intercession for our countries and nations. Nehemiah heard, and what he heard took him into a time of prayer and fasting. The captivity of his people and the walls of Jerusalem being broken down, brought him down on his knees to cry out to God for their sins that they sinned against God. vs.6: " Let thine ear now be attentive, and thine eyes open, that thou mayest hear the prayer of thy servant, which I pray before thee now, day and night, for the children of Israel thy servants, and confess the sins of the children of Israel, which we have sinned against thee: both I and my father's house have sinned". God help us! We need to intercede for humanity with a whole heart. God bless you.
