Where does the determination, the grit to continue on in this life when things are tough come from? How do we maintain heart felt joy in the face of suffering or adversity? Nehemiah helps us to discover the joy of the Lord is our strength.

Nehemiah points to the Greater Nehemiah, Jesus Christ, offering a look forward within the redemptive story arc. Nehemiah shows us how to step out boldly on behalf of faith, how to get involved, how to live in community with the gifts God has given. we are all one and have much to contribute.

Oh Lord light a fire in us for your Word. That our hearts would clamor for the Book! That our souls would shout, "BRING OUT THE BOOK!" That we would purposefully, attentively, thoughtfully, prayerfully consume the Word. That our posture would reflect our desire to learn and listen to you speak Lord. Let us feel responsive to the Word, let it penetrate. Let us truly see our spiritual condition and existing weaknesses. Let us seek joy, the true joy that that bubbles up from within and is only found at the foot of the cross, rather than the sort of generic happiness the world is peddling. Let us stand tall on the rock as children of the promise, knowing your great grace will have the last word.
