Last week Pastor Paul began a message about praise. He showed us what true praise is, and how we can implement it in our daily lives. Now today, he shows us how we can praise the Lord as a body. Whether we’re talking about your family, your local church, or even a larger event where thousands of believers get together, we see the example of Nehemiah who led the entire nation of Israel in praise to the Lord at the end of the wall building project. As we finish our study of Ezra and Nehemiah today, we will see how God was honored and how the people set the groundwork for a national revival and recommitment to the Lord. It’s a step we must take today.
