“For on the first day of the first month he began to go up from Babylonia, and on the first day of the fifth month he came to Jerusalem, for the good hand of his God was on him. For Ezra had set his heart to study the Law of the Lord, and to do it and to teach his statutes and rules in Israel.” -Ezra 7:9-10
“How can you know God’s hand is on your life? Study the Word. Obey the Word. Seek to share the Word. Live according to the Word, not striving to satisfy God, but letting His life flow through you.” -Pastor Steve Wainright (excerpt from Sunday Evening Sermon “Experiencing God’s Hand” from Ezra 7)
