Marks of Revival: God’s Hand Is Upon It
Nehemiah 2 | Our God establishes our steps and turns hearts of kings as he pleases. We know these Proverbs to be true, and as we study Nehemiah 2, we get to see them functionally play out. Nehemiah will pray, he will plan, and he will obey, and we will see God sovereignly accomplish his will.

Burdened For What’s Broken
Nehemiah 1 | Nehemiah heard the situation in Jerusalem, and it wasn't good. The people were in great trouble and shame. The walls were broken down and the gates burned. These words reporting the broken state of Jerusalem laid a burden on Nehemiah that led to days of weeping, mourning, fasting, and prayer. Fortunately for us, we have his prayer recorded for us. This week we will turn to his prayer to learn what it looks like to pray when we are burdened for what's broken.

Marks of Revival: Confessing & Forsaking Our Sin
Ezra 10 | Ezra gives us a beautiful picture of what happens as God revives and restores his people. Though beautiful, there is brokenness that happens in the beauty. One of the marks of revival is the confession and forsaking of sin. Ezra 10 gives us a powerful picture of what it looks like to allow the mourning of sin to lead to the confessing and forsaking of sin. As we see our sin for what it is, take heart, we will see our Savior for who he is as well.

God’s Word, God’s Power, God’s Worship
God's power...
God's worship...
In the grand scheme of life, you know what we need? More of God's word, and a deeper understanding of how it gives us all things for life and godliness. We need more awe of the power of God and how supreme He truly is. And we need to never lose sight that the end of all things is his glory and worship. Ezra 5 and 6 will give us the reminders we need on each of these.
