Join Jay Ewing and Perry Marshall as they discuss Nehemiah chapter one. They focus on the importance of prayer, looking at the example of Nehemiah’s own prayer. They highlight praying as a first response and talk about ways we can deepen our own prayers. While the book is named after Nehemiah, they talk about how God is the ultimate hero of this story and emphasizing his role in restoration and redemption.00:00 - Introduction00:55 - The Church and Technology02:02 - God is the Hero of the Story04:00 - Nehemiah’s Contemparies05:35 - Staying Faithful in Exile07:35 - Repentance in Light of Judgement10:04 - Nehemiah’s Heart for Jerusalem13:59 - Nehemiah’s Prayer/Learning How to Pray21:20 - Connecting Nehemiah’s Prayer to Daniel’s Prayer22:47 - Bringing the Lesson’s from Nehemiah Into Everyday Life25:00 - Steps to Deepen Your Prayers28:23 - Looking Ahead to the Rest of NehemiahLike always, you can write us at theweekly@cavlarybible.com.
