\u201cAnd they said unto me, The remnant\nthat are left of the captivity there in the province are in great affliction\nand reproach: the wall of Jerusalem also is broken down, and the gates thereof\nare burned with fire. And it came to pass, when I heard these words, that I sat\ndown and wept, and mourned certain days, and fasted, and prayed before the God\nof heaven.\u201d \u2013 Nehemiah 1:3-4<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n\n

In 1880, the French, bolstered by a\nrecent success in building the Suez Canal, decided to undertake the digging of\nthe Panama Canal. They envisioned a fifty-mile passage running at sea level,\nwhich would require no locks. Unfortunately, after thirteen years of difficult\nwork to remove seventy-seven million cubic feet of dirt, there had been 22,000\ndeaths among workers (mostly from malaria and yellow fever) and a great deal of\ndigging still remained. Keeping an experienced workforce was impossible given\nthe number of deaths, which, along with other unexpected challenges, led the\nFrench to abandon the task.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n\n

Though completion seemed hopeless,\nthe United States bought out the French interests and restarted work on the\ncanal in 1904. By then, the cause of disease among French workers had been\ntraced to mosquitoes, so the Americans' first step was to eliminate that\nthreat. They also redesigned the canal to include locks that would raise the\nships higher, thus greatly reducing the amount of digging needed to complete\nthe project. The canal, once believed impossible to accomplish, was formally\nopened in August of 1914.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n\n

Our focus verses are from another\nexample of overcoming circumstances that once appeared insurmountable. Although\nNehemiah had never lived in Jerusalem , he wept when he heard that the\nIsraelite captives who had returned there were under great oppression, and that\nthe city walls remained broken down and its gates burned. However, instead of\njust dwelling in grief, Nehemiah beseeched God to give him mercy in the sight\nof the king of Persia and an opportunity to go to the city to rebuild. As a\nresult, the king not only granted Nehemiah permission to go to Jerusalem, but\nalso gave him letters that would ensure his safe passage, and provided timber\nfor reconstruction. Nehemiah faced challenges along the way, but he remained\nsteadfast and the walls were successfully completed.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n\n

In our Christian lives, we may also\nface situations that seem impossible. We might even begin to think that doing\nnothing would be easier than trying to overcome and win the victory. However,\nif we earnestly ask the Lord for His help and willingly take the necessary steps\nto prevail, God will go before us and help us conquer whatever obstacles come\nour way. We do not need to live in defeat; just as God did for Nehemiah, He can\nmake the impossible possible for us! If you are facing an overwhelming\ncircumstance, take it to the Lord in prayer and He will make a way for you to\novercome!<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n\n
