Day 139: RENEWAL, Confession, and Covenant in Nehemiah 7-9 | Bible In A Year (CSB)


Listen Later

On Day 139 of our "Bible in a Year" journey, we explore Nehemiah 7-9. Nehemiah organizes Jerusalem’s repopulation to secure the city, and the people gather to hear Ezra read the Law. Their heartfelt confession and covenant renewal, recounting God’s faithfulness, mark a spiritual revival, anchoring the restored community in God’s promises.Questions:1. The reading of the Law in chapter 8 sparks joy and repentance—how does this response challenge us to consider the transformative power of God’s Word in reorienting our hearts toward His truth and grace?2. The people’s prayer in chapter 9 recounts Israel’s history of rebellion and God’s mercy—how might this reflection prompt us to examine our own patterns of unfaithfulness and the constancy of God’s compassion in our lives?3. The covenant renewal in chapter 9 binds the people to God’s commands—how does this commitment invite us to wrestle with the balance between human resolve and reliance on God’s strength to live out His calling?Use my affiliate link to get the CSB apologetics study bible hereMy video review the CSB Apologetics Study BibleAll our links are here
