Lessons From a City in Shambles

We have spent seventeen weeks covering the book of Nehemiah and have considered the many life-application lessons that these chapters provide. But today, for our eighteenth and final study, we’ll zoom out to get the bigger picture. There are five “mega-themes” from this book that we can benefit from. These great themes provide both encouragement and warning to us today.

I. Great Cities Can Fall

II. Ordinary People Can Help

III. Real Prayer Can Work

IV. Spiritual Revival Can Happen

V. Good Movements Can Falter

Talk with God: Meditate on Isaiah 6:8 this week and ask the Lord to give you His heart for your city and the people He’s placed in your life.

Talk with others: Ask a believing friend or mentor to pray for and support you as you seek revival in your walk with the Lord.

Talk with kids: How did God rescue His people through Samson?
