#soap # Nehemiah 13 ## Title: It’s All For Him ## Scripture: (Nehemiah 13:14) “Please remember me for this, O my God, and do not wipe out the kindness that I have done for the temple of my God and for its services!” (NET) ## Observation: Nehemiah has said these things before, but it is a great reminder of who all this was for. Nehemiah has accomplished a great thing. Against so many odds, he rebuilt the walls of Jerusalem, reestablished the city, corrected injustice, and so much more. He has a lasting legacy, and we still read about him today. However, it was never for us or anyone else. He did it for God. His only hope was that God noticed. Wow. Do you want to be successful at life? Do you want to achieve great things? Only God knows if your view of greatness and His view of greatness are the same thing. But the best way to find out is to make it all about Him. Make God the focus of your attention and watch what happens. ## Application: Take a moment and think about who you are hoping notices you. Make sure the primary One is the Lord. He affects everything else. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for always seeing us.
