“In the month of Kislev in the twentieth year, I, Nehemiah, was in the capital city of Susa.” - nehemiah 1.1

“I was the one who served wine to the king.” nehemiah 1.11

• God is causing things to happen
• God is positioning people for his ultimate purpose and glory
• You can be that person
• THE MOMENT YOU REALIZE HE IS POSITIONING YOU; HE HAS ALREADY STARTED.

Serving wine was the hinge for God’s ultimate purpose for Nehemiah.

It has to be this way. God’s people. You. Me. It has to be this way. It has to be the narrow way. It has to be the extra mile, difficult, delayed gratification. It has to be. It has to be the thankless, extra time, “no one else does”, why doesn’t this seem to work out the way I thought.” GOD IS POSITIONING YOU.

God’s may already have you 1 step from your ultimate destiny. 

look at this wiki article. “Once there he defied the opposition of Judah’s enemies on all sides - Samaritans, Ammonites, Arabs and Philistines - and rebuilt the walls within 52 days”

Cupbearer to key component to the story of God’s people. Cupbearer to being surrounded by angry enemies of Israel while he built back the distinction and dignity for his beloved people.

Everything we experience is more than what it is.
