A Big Problem and A Bold Prayer: Part 2
Nehemiah 2:1-8
The story so far – Nehemiah spends months in prayerful preparation before God directly uses him in his redemptive plan.
Do you struggle with impatience and wanting to jump ahead of God’s timetable? Consider how the unfolding story of Nehemiah encourages us through the following truths:
- God is sovereign over our moments of crisis (Neh 2:1-2)
- Prayerful dependence on God’s sovereignty leads to right action (Neh 2:3-6)
- God’s sovereignty is for his people’s good (Neh 2:7-8)
A concluding encouragement for those impatient to reverse current circumstances.
