Nehemiah's relationship with God was ongoing. He continually had conversations and sought Jesus in the things he did...When he found out about the state of Jerusalem. When he saw that something had to be done. When he rebuilt the walls. When he found sin had taken over. For us, we can live in this restored, joyous life that isn't under the rules of the old law as Pastor Bill reminds us today. When JESUS came and gave His life on the cross, it enabled us to live free of sin through the power of the Holy Spirit!
