193 Thrive Deeper: Nehemiah 1-7
In the book of Nehemiah, we encounter a man named Nehemiah, who serves as the cupbearer to King Artaxerxes in the citadel of Susa – capital of the reigning Persian empire. Nehemiah receives distressing news about the state of Jerusalem: its walls lie in ruins, and its gates have been burned down. Deeply moved, Nehemiah prays to the God of heaven, confessing the sins of the Israelites and seeking divine intervention. The king grants Nehemiah permission to return to Jerusalem and rebuild the city. Nehemiah faces opposition from enemies who mock the restoration efforts, but he perseveres. With determination and leadership, Nehemiah organizes a citywide construction crew, and within weeks, the walls of Jerusalem stand tall once more, instilling confidence and hope among the Jewish remnant.
