Nehemiah 5:17-18

You’ve put in your all, only to see a project fail because of others. It’s tempting to blame them and turn your back completely. But that won’t help you succeed, and it can hurt you spiritually. The book of Nehemiah offers a way to move forward when other people fail you. This plan contains practical suggestions and spiritual encouragement so you can keep working with excellence in spite of failure.

Have you ever felt disappointed about the outcome of something that you believed was God’s will? Did you wonder if you perhaps did not understand Him correctly? In this Plan, we will explore how to keep on trusting God when things seem to go wrong. “The Lord directs our steps, so why try to understand everything along the way?” (Proverbs 20:24, NLT).

After hearing about Jerusalem’s fallen walls, which left the city vulnerable and disgraced, Nehemiah knew that action had to be taken. But first, God needed to be sought out. Often, we are moved to “make things right,” but when we do it in our own power, we miss out on the guidance and blessing of the One who brings true restoration. Discover how Nehemiah navigates his circumstances in difficult times.

You might not be able to change the whole world, but you can change your part of it. What’s your purpose? What’s your story? What will God do through you? Find out through the experiences of Nehemiah in this Life.Church Bible Plan, accompanying Pastor Craig Groeschel’s message series, The Good Work.
