—Nehemiah 4:16-23
by: Linda Harris.
Nehemiah assigned each person a role. Some worked on the wall; others stood guard. If the enemy attacked, Nehemiah instructed everyone to report to him. Then he said, “Our God will fight for us” (4:20).
Each Christian has a role in the body of Christ. Some may have visible positions, such as pastor or teacher. Others work behind the scenes as dishwashers, janitors or accountants. Every one is important to God’s work. Do you know your spiritual gifts? If not, read Romans 12:4-8; 1 Corinthians 12; and Ephesians 4:11-13. Which of these gifts might be yours?
