We explore how faith and effort work together through Nehemiah’s bold request to rebuild Jerusalem, showing how prayer fuels practical planning. Along the way we unpack convergent faith, journaling for clarity, and choosing open doors over closed ones.

• Two wings of progress: faith and human effort
• Nehemiah’s courage in the king’s court
• Specific asks: letters, timber, timelines, and travel
• Preparation as evidence of trust and character
• Convergent faith: gifts, calling, and prayer aligned
• Journaling to remember lessons and track God’s provision
• Discernment: not every good thing is your thing
• Practical questions to identify gifts and passions
• Looking for open doors instead of closed ones
• Blessing to rebuild from the inside out
