Where in the story | God's Persistence: Ezra and Nehemiah

"The walls we build up to give us a sense of security will ultimately crumble. But only God's presence leads to our true provision and protection in this life."

Welcome to the surprising (and anti-climactic) end to your Old Testament. As the people return from Exile, the same pattern of rebellion and ritual continue. Where God's heart is relationship, the people of God continue to choose paths that lead to their own destruction. As this movement ends, God goes silent for 400 years. But his silence does not mean his absence. Rather he is orchestrating all things for his glory and the ultimate good of his people. This will take place when he breaks the silence through his own Son.
