In Nehemiah 9 the people spend the chapter confessing and repenting. As we move into chapter 10 they now focus on the fruit of their repentance. Christians today are called to bear fruit in keeping with our repentance. What kind of fruit are we to bear? That's what this message seeks to answer.

In chapter 8 the revival of God’s people begins when God’s Word is read, revered, retold and responded to - one of those responses is repentance. However, chapter 8 wasn’t the time to grieve and mourn but a time to celebrate. Chapter 9 is now the time to confess and repent. What do we learn about repentance in Nehemiah 9? That’s the question this week’s message seeks to answer.

The book of Nehemiah is a revival story and in chapter 8 the revival of God's people continues as they hear the Word of God read and respond to it with reverence and obedience.

In Nehemiah 6 the walls of Jerusalem are rebuilt but the city remains essentially empty. Nehemiah 7 shows what needed to be set up for the people to fill the city and again paints a picture of the makeup and call of the church.

In Nehemiah 6 his opposition’s intentions are bad when they say, “come down from the wall.” Nehemiah’s reply is, “I cannot come down for I am doing important work.” All Kingdom work is important work. How do we respond to our opposition, the world, our flesh, and the devil when they ask us to walk away from Kingdom work?

Nehemiah feared God above anyone else. It was this fear of God that enabled him to confront the broken-down ways of God’s people, call for repentance, and see change.

In chapter 3 the work of rebuilding the walls and homes of Jerusalem began. But in chapter 4 opposition against the work rises up against Nehemiah and the people. This message focuses on how they respond to the battle and what the church today is to learn from it.

In this week's text the rebuilding of Jerusalem begins, finally! In itself it's a beautiful story of a people coming together and committed to a common goal. But more than that, and in the fullness of time, Nehemiah 3 paints a picture of the church coming together in unity, diversity and humility for the sake of Christ.

In chapter 1 Nehemiah heard the sad news of the state of the city and people of Jerusalem. After four months of prayer and preparation Nehemiah is allowed the opportunity to return to the city and in doing so reminds the church of its call today and the better Nehemiah to come.

We launch a new series this week in the book of Nehemiah by understanding the context and the lead up to the events of the book. We end by looking specifically at the prayer of Nehemiah in chapter 1 and seeing what we can learn from it and about Nehemiah himself.
