Actual Work!


NEHEMIAH 3
Nehemiah was sent by God back from the big worldly city where he lived out of touch with God’s people and God’s work. His life was being used up by the King of Persia. God sent him back to Jerusalem to lead the defeated people there to rebuilt it, starting with the walls. The first thing he did on his return was to examine the state of the walls to see how serious the need was. He faced the truth about the size of the task at hand. Too big for him – too big for the people – but not too big for God! You are also called to do some rebuilding. Remember there are two parts to your building work: 1. The building up of your personal life in Christ. 2. Building up the Church.
