Sermons on Nehemiah
After the wall of Jerusalem was rebuilt, Nehemiah and the Jewish people assembled to dedicate it and celebrate what God had done for them (Neh. 12:27). Their joy teaches us how to make our church family more appealing to outsiders.
After the reconstruction of Jerusalem’s wall was finished, the people gathered in the square before the Water Gate and worshiped God (Neh. 8:1-6). Their example helps us understand how to worship in a way that is pleasing to God and meaningful to us.
Immediately after the reconstruction of Jerusalem’s wall, the people of Judah assembled in the square before the Water Gate to read the book of the law (Neh. 8:1). Without an open Bible, we can’t build anything of lasting value.
