Hello Everyone,

Last time we saw Nehemiah's vision, and now it must become reality beginning in chapter 3, and that's going to take a lot of help.

Many people skip over this chapter because it reads like a Hebrew phone book. It's all names and sounds like the 'begat' chapters in Genesis. But it is a very important chapter.

Take time to read it this week.

It is the most detailed description of the layout of old Jerusalem, with intricate details about the placement of each wall and gate.

Even archaeologists sometimes use this chapter as a map to help them as they dig in the old city.

The first 2 chapters have been all about preparing to do the work of God. Now the actual work will begin. Nehemiah was given an assignment from God, and WE should find out our assignment from God as well.

You have a life and family to build, a business, a ministry...a church to build!

Nehemiah could never have completed this work so quickly without a lot of good help that he delegated.

Greater Things Are Still to Come
