Then everyone in Judah brought their tenth of grain, new wine, and oil to the Temple. These things were put into the storerooms. I put these men in charge of the storerooms: Shelemiah the priest, Zadok the teacher, and a Levite named Pedaiah. And I made Hanan son of Zaccur, son of Mattaniah, their helper. I knew I could trust these men. They were responsible for giving the supplies to their relatives. My God, please remember me for these things I have done. Don’t forget all I have faithfully done for the Temple of my God and for its services. Nehemiah 13:12-14ERV:
These verses remind us that God sees every act of faithfulness done for His kingdom. Nehemiah faithfully cared for God’s house, appointed trustworthy workers, and made sure the needs of others were met. Then he prayed, “My God, remember me.” The Lord has a long memory and many rewards for those who faithfully serve Him. Whether through tithing, volunteering, helping in the church, or caring for the poor and needy, none of it goes unnoticed by God. Stay faithful in the work of the Lord. What is done for Him today will never be forgotten.
Father God, thank You that You remember every act of faithfulness done in Your name. Help me to serve with a willing heart, to give generously, and to help those in need. Strengthen me to stay faithful in Your work and to honor You in all I do. Love You, thank You, praise You and give You all the honor and glory in Your Mighty Precious Name Lord Jesus Amen.
