Nehemiah 8:1-9:21, 1 Corinthians 9:1-18, Psalms 33:12-22, Proverbs 21:11-12

Today is the 14th day of August welcome to the Daily Audio Bible I’m Brian it is wonderful to be here with you today as we bring week number two of this month to a close together. This week we've been spending our time in the book of Nehemiah which we’ll continue to do. And it’s…well…that story is quite a ride and there's an awful lot for us there in our own lives. And, so, let's dive in. We've been reading from the Christian Standard Bible this week, which is what we’ll do today. Nehemiah chapter 8 verse 1 through 9 verse 21 today.

Prayer:

Father, we love You and we thank You for Your word. We thank You for bringing us through another week. All of these weeks, all of these verses, all of these books that we've engaged with thus far, all of the thoughts and intents of our hearts being challenged, all of the comfort, all of the counsel, all of the encouragement that comes from the Scriptures, we love You, we thank You. Our hearts are open with gratitude, and we just take this moment and as we kind of approach the middle of another month to just look back in awe at what You're doing inside of us from the inside out and we also look forward to what You have yet to do in our lives this year. So, come Holy Spirit into all that we've read this week, all that we’ve learned from sources like the book of Nehemiah and applied to our own lives. May this sink in, may this stick, may this transform us we pray. In the name of Jesus, we ask. Amen.

Announcements:

dailyaudiobible.com is home base, it’s where you find out what's going on around here. If you’re using like a laptop or a computer, a desktop, if you’re using your…your phone or your tablet you can find out what’s going on around here if you’re using the Daily Audio Bible app. In the Daily Audio Bible app there’s a little drawer icon in the upper left-hand corner and that opens up a Drawer and you can find things like the Community section or the Daily Audio Bible Shop.

And in the Shop, there are a number of categories that have resources in them all for this journey, whether that be a journal to journal your way through the Scriptures or things to write with. I have…well…since my mom got sick…so 2016 is when I discovered writing and journaling with a pencil and kind of moving away from the digital and back to actually in my own hand which my penmanship is not that great but I can read it, kind of, sort of usually if I have to refer back. But to write things down with our own body with our own hand from our mind to our hand to the page, and there's something about that that's a little different than typing things out and I just to pause and think and contemplate and be able to refer back in the days when it just feels like everything has gone sideways and nothing is working, or even a season where it just feels like you’re just slogging through and it’s so difficult. To be able to go back to different seasons in our life and see God was faithful to us, it's our own testimony, it's our own testament in our own hand. So, we certainly encourage journaling our way through life and through the Bible. It’s a precedent that’s set in Scripture. Remembering what God has done in certain places at certain times is all throughout the Scriptures. And, so, you can check that out as well as any other number of resources in the Daily Audio Bible Shop.

Community Prayer and Praise:

Hi DABbers Bubba D here with you August 10th, 2021. I listened to yesterday's message today this morning. Oh my gosh Brian it was amazing, just hit the nail on the head with the message and the psalm and…and repentance and tying it all with Ezra definitely spoke to my heart and I want to join in with that prayer. Father God You know where we have made so many compromises and rationalized and reasoned ourselves out of Your will out of Your goodness out of Your peace. All the other things that come as a free gift, the fruit of Your spirit. Holy Spirit we have offended You we have grieved You. Asking You forgive us. All the different lacks the lack of faith, the lack of trust. Lord so many times we've reasoned ourselves out of it and grieved You for Your word is very plain, do this, trust, be filled, walk in my joy. And we have not done so. Lord help us get back to the clear very easy to understand word of trusting You with all we have and take everything foreign out of us to be back to a square one commitment to Abba. Thank You, Lord in Jesus name. Amen.

Hey everybody this is Jonathan from Denver. This is my first-time calling in. I've been listening for maybe a month, a month and a half now. This has been a season of slow, slow growth for me. I'm 20 years old. I have struggled with lust and pornography addiction since I was 12, 13, very young. And for the first time in a very long time, I'm starting to feel like this might be something that I might one day be free of, but it's very, very slow. And sometimes it feels like what feels like progress to me would be embarrassing to any normal person. And I'm just tired of trying to be different and be better. It feels like I try and bathe myself in scripture all day and I try my best all day to be better than I am and then still at the end of the day I still struggle with these things. And it's…I feel gross, I feel terrible. So, I just…I'm asking for your prayer and asking that you would intercede for me as I try to be better. And I just thank you for what this community means to me. I haven't been listening long, but this is a place to go and it's a relief when things are difficult. And, so, I thank you. Thank you for your prayer.

Father God thank you for the Daily Audio Bible, thank you for Brian and his family for…for being obedient to your calling Father God. And Father I just want to lift up all my brothers and sisters who have family members or they themselves are going through eating disorders Father God. I'm thinking of bulimia and anorexia Father. Father You are God and the great physician the great psychiatrist the great counselor who can only intervene for our spirit our souls our bodies Father God. You delivered me from anorexia and bulimia Father God, and You can work miracles in these children and in these people's lives Father. We need to put You first Jesus on the throne of our hearts, do not care what men have to say about our bodies or our minds or who we are. It's You that tells us who we are. We are Your children born in Your image, created in Your image, knitted together in our mother's womb to be who You want us to be not what the world wants us to be Father. And we truly do not want to be someone that we are not meant to be. You have given us our identity Father God. The world doesn't tell us who we or how much we weigh or what we should and shouldn't eat. Father God deliver all these children from this evil spirit in Jesus Christ name we pray in the name of the Father the son and the Holy Spirit Lord. I love you DAB family. I love you Brian. And thank you so much for your commentaries. They are life changing and I can tell that the Holy Spirit just speaks through you and uses you. Thank you for being obedient. I love you brother. I love all my brothers and sisters in Christ. This is your sister Julie signing out. God bless you. Bye-bye.

Hi everybody this is Susie from Colorado I just wanted to call in and give you a little update on me. Your prayers just took me out of an incredibly dark place. Doctor John from Illinois, thank you for reminding me that even Jesus lied down and went to sleep in a boat during a storm because He was so tired. And so many times He was…He was tired. And I never even thought about that. And I just thank everybody out there who called in and said, you know, I understand that you're weary we're here for you. Kathy from Aspen CO you know what you mean to me. Thank you so much. It was honestly like cold water to a parched soul. That was really, really, really struggling and I realize that I still will struggle. I do have a lot…a lot of burdens to bear but, you know God, said that He would help…that He would help. So, that is my hope and when I feel like I don't have help I gotta remember that He said that He would help me. And you guys just lift me up and I pray for every single one of you, every call that comes in I'm praying for you. And you have just really helped me get through a really bad time. So, God bless you all. Thank you.

Happy Wednesday my DAB family it's Melissa from Jamaica and it's 6:09 AM in the morning. And I just heard my brother BG give an incredible testimony about the miraculous healing power, that of God and it just ignited a flame on the inside of me to remember that our God still heels. He still does that. I mean when you were talking about it brother goosebumps 'cause I'm saying you never had another headache in your life, you don't know what that feels like. That's amazing. And to hear how __ God has worked in your life, it has just built my faith this morning and I just want to say thank you so much for sharing. And it…and it reminds us. You know, before that I listened to Doctor John about having adjusted his operation. Doctor John it is well, you are well. I declare healing over you right now. All the COVID sufferers, I declare healing over your life. The God who heals is still in that business. I will decree and declare it mighty God. We thank You, we thank You God for reminding us of who You are. You are the great and awesome God and we give You thanks, we give You glory. We believe, we believe You are still able and therefore God we know we will see Your glory in our lives. We know we will see the glory of God if we believe, and we believe with clarity. And we're standing on Your word and all that You've done before in the past. Thank You, Jesus. Thank You, Jesus. Glory to Your name. Father God be with every situation that needs You this morning. We thank You; we bless Your holy name. Be with every single member of our DAB family. Cover us under your blood Lord. And it's in Jesus’ precious and holy name we pray.
