Restart from Ground Zero

[S] Leviticus 14:45 --
He shall therefore tear down the house, its stones, and its timbers, and all the plaster of the house, and he shall take them outside the city to an unclean place.

[O] If the initial complete cleansing of the house from leprosy fails, then that house is to be torn down and discarded outside the city to an unclean place.  And I'm assuming a new house will be built up in place.  This is how I need to look at my own life and my community's healthiness.  When sin or wrong-teachings creep in, try the overall cleansing but if that does not work, then be ready to tear down everything and start from scratch.

[A] I need to fearfully examine my life for any spiritual leprosy and abhor it to the point of starting fresh from ground zero.  I should not try to layer over the leprosy thinking it will just go away.  I am currently toiling over a situation where I really need God's wisdom to manage it to bring out His glory.  I feel as though we need to do a deep cleansing but I desperately need His wisdom to handle it properly.

[P] Dear Jesus, please intervene in my heart through Your Spirit to speak to me for clear way of managing this circumstance so that Your will is brought forth from it and not of my own credits. Please continue to guard my heart with Your love.  In Jesus' name.  Amen.
