Ezra 5:2 Then rose up Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and began to build the house of God which is at Jerusalem: and with them were the prophets of God helping them.

Many people lose by default because they are waiting on others to do what is needful. You must know and understand that the power to succeed has been given to you. Your needed help may never showed up until you take the very first step. Rise up today like Zerubbabel, then others will join you to fulfill that assignment of God. Someone said: "If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude towards it."

There was a word on Zerubbabel, that not by power or might, the ruins, the small beginning shall end up in greatness. Despite this, unless he rise up to build, nothing will happen. There was a man who had been by the pool of Bethesda for 38years, the day Jesus met him, He simply told him, take your bed and walk. The man rose and walk, he did what he initially was complaining about with an instruction. 

The moment you assume that someone is responsible for your stagnation or lack of progress, you lose by default in life. Brian Tracy said: "The only limits you have are the limits you believe." Today, pick up yourself and stair up God's abilities in you and you will be shocked at your outcome in life.
