Stepping Into the Purposes of God- Nehemiah Lesson 1, Eps. 3

Nehemiah returned to his homeland to rebuild the nation following their defeat by the Babylonians and their exile. In this video, I examine chapter 1-2 and discuss relevant issue facing our culture and the personal investment that Nehemiah was willing to make for God and his country. I. Nehemiah cared enough about God and his country and the purposes of God to inquire/be informed. II. Nehemiah cared enough about his county and the purposes of God to make an emotional investment. III. Nehemiah cared enough about his county and the purposes of God to make a spiritual investment. IV. Nehemiah cared enough about his country and the purposes of God to risk his life. V. Nehemiah cared about the reputation of his country and God. Nehemiah was wiling to make an investment in both the Kingdom of God his country-a land he had never even seen with his own eyes since he was born and raised in exile in Babylon. How can we learn from Nehemiah about the investments we can make for the eternal good of our home land.
