Preacher : Elder CHARLES C.CHRISTIAN
THEME : BUILDING OUR MORAL WALLS
Text : Nehemiah1:1-5 Genesis 1:26
The world today often identifies its greatest problem as economics, but in reality, our deepest challenge is morality.
Throughout history, moral decay has always led to destruction, and only when morality is restored can true progress be made.
Nehemiah stands out in biblical history as a young man of great vision and burden.
When he heard that Jerusalem, the sacred city of his fathers, had been destroyed and its walls broken down, he wept and mourned for three days.
Though he served as the king’s cupbearer (tasting officer) in the palace, his heart was with God’s people and God’s city.
What makes you weep?
What breaks your heart when it comes to lost souls?
Whatever moves us to joy or sorrow reveals how God truly sees us.
Prayer is the channel God has given men to connect with heaven and effect change on earth.
To rebuild lives, cities, and morality, we must channel everything through prayer.
Remember: it is not by our convincing words that souls are won, but by the power of the Holy Spirit.
History has proven that no one has ever stopped the gospel and no one ever will.
God’s only method to reach the world is you and I.
If we accept this mandate, we can rebuild the walls of morality in our generation.
The problem of our Christian walk is not that Introduction

ii.Prioritize our mission with prayer – Prayer is the foundation of every soul-winning effort.
iii.Avail ourselves to God – God uses available vessels more than gifted ones.
