But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. (Isaiah 40:31 KJV)  Hurrying has become the sword with which many destinies have been slaughtered.

THE DAILY FOUNTAIN DAILY DEVOTIONAL OF THE CHURCH OF NIGERIA (ANGLICAN COMMUNION) DATE: SATURDAY, AUGUST 19, 2017 TOPIC: REBUILDING THE TEMPLE READ: EZRA 2:64-70 MESSAGE In this passage, we see that the first batch of returnees from exile was carefully recorded (verses 64-66). Their servants and transport animals were also indicated (verses 65-66). In addition, major contributions for rebuilding the temple were specified (verse 69). In today's units of measurement, these freewill offerings amount to about 500 kilograms of gold and 2,900 kilograms of Silver! What will be their monetary values? Probably millions of naira! In verse 58, we note that only some of the family heads contributed towards the temple rebuilding effort. What must have prevented the other leaders from making their own contributions? See Haggai 1: 2 for possible answers. Consider your own contributions towards the work of God so far this year. Do you personally think they are reasonable, considering how th...
