Daily Bible Reading, November 2022: “God’s Renewing Word of Thankfulness and Praise.”

We will all face a crisis in our work at some point. Whether it’s economic uncertainty, a pandemic, or overcoming injustice, crisis doesn’t have to have the last word.

Learning to Lead With Nehemiah

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.

Discover how Nehemiah navigates his circumstances in difficult times.

We want to take new ground in every area of our lives. As we pioneer, we are going to need a big faith and a courageous spirit. One of the greatest ways we build our faith is by engaging the Scriptures and listening to the Word of God. The greatest days are ahead because the greatest adventures of your life have yet to be lived. Readings in Genesis and Nehemiah.

Pioneer: Taking New Ground Together, Part 6

The book of Nehemiah contains loads of wisdom for our work. In this five-day plan, we’ll examine five passages from this book that show us how we can “pray without ceasing” at work, which type of work is “God’s work,” how to “trust God and get going,” how to confront the darkness we see in our workplaces, and how excellent work can lead others to worship the one true God!

In this second series, we continue our trek as we take in key locations around the iconic city of Jerusalem. Join Andrew Ollerton as he shows us King David’s Palace, Hezekiah’s Tunnel and the famous walls built after the exile by Nehemiah. Discover the biblical significance of this ancient city as it relates to key stories and events from the Old Testament.  

Bible Trek | Jerusalem in the Old Testament 

There is something very human about the need to pursue and conquer impossible things. But life is rarely easy, and disappointment can drain the life of our dreams and aspirations—especially the God-given ones. And when we choose to ignore situations that look impossible, we are also choosing to ignore the work of God. He is the way-maker. Impossible circumstances are His proving ground.

Keep Doing What Seems Impossible

Often touted as a “leadership” book, Nehemiah is rich in application. The way Nehemiah led the exiled Israelites in Persia to rebuild and reoccupy Jerusalem was as much an exercise in surrender and supplication as it was leadership and strategy. In this 21-day reading plan, we’ll look to Nehemiah as a role model in prayer, obedience, perseverance, and, yes, leadership.

Daily Bible Reading - November 2020 God's Life-Giving Word of Praise and Thanksgiving

A series by Phil & Kath Henry. The book of Nehemiah in the Old Testament of the Bible is more than an account of rebuilding the wall of Jerusalem. It’s an invitation to all who read it to be inspired by one person’s faith and passion to rebuild a community of people. The story can speak to each of us today as we desire to rebuild communities of faith and hope in the wake of the discouragement and vulnerability that world events have caused in the past few years. In this plan, we consider how compassion for others can become inspirational action. We’ll also consider how we can do our God-given part without taking on more than is ours to do.

Real Hope: Nehemiah - Building Community

Whatever God is working on in and through us, He is always faithful to finish. From Broken to Restored is a Bible study on the Book of Nehemiah, focusing on how to respond when we see God move mightily in our lives.

From Broken to Restored: The Book of Nehemiah

Along with Ezra, Nehemiah chronicles the post-exilic history of Israel. Nehemiah's leadership helped resettle Israelites in the land and rebuild Jerusalem's walls. However, Nehemiah's greatest legacy was a renewed national identity rooted in repentance of sin and obedience to God.

Reconstruction: A Study in Nehemiah

There comes a time in our journey of walking in our assignment when we have to make a decision. We have to decide if the opposition is going to be an opportunity or an excuse.

Walking in Your Purpose and Assignment With Focus

Following Zerubbabel and Ezra, Nehemiah’s rebuilding of the city wall in Jerusalem is the last part of the trio. These leaders helped the Jews withstand all opposition and restore their identity as a nation. The two volumes of Ezra-Nehemiah send a strong message to us: God is faithful to the covenant with His people. We might go astray, but God will always bring us back to the Promised Land.

Through the Bible: Nehemiah

There are 66 verses about casting vision in the Bible. Arguably one of the most effective vision casters in the Bible was Nehemiah, a Jewish leader who convinced the Jews to rebuild the wall around Jerusalem in the 5th Century B.C. Although Nehemiah’s vision casting is only two verses long, it has four elements that are crucial to today’s business leader. This Bible reading plan looks at those four elements.
