Skilled Scholarly Scribe

Nehemiah 8:8And they read in the book, in the law of God, interpreting and giving the sense, so that they understood the reading.
Generally, I do not care too much for the natural man's birthday, and not mine own nor my family members. But for the sake of humanity and as the Spirit inspires, I do post some birthday wishes. Today morning as I was enjoying the word of God for my need to be skilled scholarly scribe, the Lord reminded me of my younger sister's birthday. On praying for her, the best wish and prayer I could offer is for her to be a skilled scholarly scribe in the word of God, as she and her husband themselves are real academic scholars. 

Spiritually, there is a great need for such a scholarly scribe, constituted and skilled in the word of God. The age we live in today has been indoctrinated with different teachings, wrong teachings, incomplete teachings, improper teachings, unhealthy teachings, and even no teachings at all. Many children of God have grown up with almost little or no healthy teaching of the word of God. Immense knowledge on secular and academic field have been imparted, even humongous amount have been spent for secular education, but what about spiritual education? No wonder, the state of Christianity is what is seen today; a deadly deficiency in spiritual vitamins! Christians are starving for healthy spiritual food, if not, dying for the lack of it. Therefore, the need for the recovery of the children of God by education through skilled scholarly scribe. 

This burden is on par with what God had done with the Israelites when they returned from Babylon to Jerusalem; the reconstitution work is carried out by Ezra, a priestly scribe, skilled in the word of God. 

Therefore, I sent a prayer and wish to NY sister the following:
God’s intention with us (today's Israel) is to have on earth a divinely constituted people to be His testimony. Because of the degradation of today's Christianity, we have been contaminated with various different teachings and practices. Therefore, there is an urgent need for today's Ezra, a priest who serves God, and also a scribe, and a scholar, and who is skilled in the Word of God.  
Wishing and praying for you and your husband to be such Skilled Scholarly Scribes for the Lord's testimony.  
Blessed Birthday!
Lord, grace us and train us to be Your skilled Scholarly scribes.
