With praise and thanksgiving, they sang to the Lord ” He is good; His love for Israel endures forever”. And all the people gave a great shout of praise to the Lord, because the foundation of the house of the Lord was laid. (Ezra 3:11)
Zerubbabel, Jeshua, the priests, Levites and all who had returned from captivity began rebuilding the temple. When the foundation of the temple was completed , they celebrated because the foundation of the temple was laid. They did not wait for the completion and the official opening.
Christian friends, let us learn to celebrate small victories. Don’t wait until you accomplish “big” victories. Celebrate your first year in marriage. Celebrate your child for moving to the next class. Celebrate the completion of first year in university. Celebrate that promotion. Celebrate small achievements in your life, family and the community.
🙏🏽Blessed day🙏🏽
