Anathoth
Nehemiah 7:27 The men of Anathoth, an hundred twenty and eight.
One of the meanings suggested for Anathoth is “an answer to prayer”. It can be awesome when our project or leadership is an answer to someone else’s prayer. Samuel was an answer to Hannah’s prayer and he was no ordinary child. The saints groan for peace in the land, righteous leadership and good government. Our God answers prayers and when our plans match the prayers He seeks to answer, then we have the assistance of angelic hosts for our success. Consider this … is your business or product meeting an urgent need somewhere … has someone been crying for affordable housing and you have invented a cheaper building material or is someone in need of food and you have a concept that will feed many that are hungry … what need is your venture meeting … who is praying that your idea will come to fruition.
Apart from prayers of others, we must also spend much time in prayer concerning the execution of our actions steps. We need prayers to help us prioritise actions and also prayers to take the right decisions. God sees that when we pray, we are telling God we trust and depend on Him for guidance and He will give us the best direction.
You may find the best ideas when you consider the prayer points of the saints.

As Nehemiah’s wall was built, so will we see a reconstruction in all that may appear in distress and in waste. Nehemiah trusted and feared God, putting his faith in the Almighty whose strength is limitless to exceed all our expectations.

I am praying someone with a burden to be used by God in building will receive a fresh vision and get the job done.
