You Can Rebuild

To rebuild effectively, you must have a strong hand—one that is courageous and resilient. A strong hand is more than physical strength; it is a mindset of toughness, a commitment to keep working even when the odds are against you. When challenges arise, when progress seems slow, and when doubts creep in, having a strong hand means enduring with faith, determination, and strategy.

Zechariah 8:9 reminds us, “Let your hands be strong, you who now hear these words spoken by the prophets who were present when the foundations were laid to rebuild the temple, the house of the LORD of Hosts.” God calls us to have strong hands because rebuilding requires not only effort but also the courage to face opposition and keep pressing forward.

Strength for the Journey

The Bible continually encourages us to be strong:

• “Therefore strengthen your limp hands and weak knees” (Hebrews 12:12). When we feel weak or unqualified, God calls us to rise up, find strength, and keep moving.

• “You therefore, my child, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus” (2 Timothy 2:1). Our strength is not merely human; it comes from God’s grace, which empowers us to do what we cannot do on our own.

• “Prepare your minds for action. Be sober-minded. Set your hope fully on the grace to be given you at the revelation of Jesus Christ” (1 Peter 1:13). A strong hand begins with a prepared mind, focused and ready to take action.

Strength doesn’t mean ignoring opposition or pretending challenges don’t exist. It means facing them head-on with a strategy rooted in God’s wisdom and power.
