What book of the Bible do you feel you could explain to someone who had not read it?
I would say for me it would be the book Nehemiah. I listened to it yeaterday and found myself thinking hat it would be like to try to explain this book to a class of students. |

Britty, JB, Tiff, Miguel, (not Manuel hahahaha) and of course our frequent quest of honor funches.....Hope everyone is well.....I say JB let's take the book of Nehemiah and do a bible stude right here in the coffeehouse.
Key Verses Nehemiah 6:15,16 8:8 Completion of the wall with the help of God. 15,16 and they read from the book, from the law of God, translating to give n the sense so they they understood the reading..... What do you find the significance of these scriptures is? explain as much or little as you would like. |

Nehemiah 6
15. So the wall was finished in the twenty and fifth day of the month Elul, in fifty and two days. 16. And it came to pass, that when all our enemies heard thereof, and all the heathen that were about us saw these things, they were much cast down in their own eyes: for they perceived that this work was wrought of our God. Nehemiah 8:8, So they read in the book in the law of God distinctly, and gave the sense, and caused them to understand the reading. |

Nehemiah came before the Lord with humility. I feel we can learn from some of his prayers.
Nehemiah 1:11 O Lord, I beseech thee, let now thine ear be attentive to the prayer of thy servant, and to the prayer of thy servants, who desire to fear thy name: and prosper, I pray thee, thy servant this day, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man. |

The work on the wall around the walled city of Jerusalem had been ravaged by fire and war. When they went to rebuilding the wall, they started at the Sheep Gate. This was the gate where the sacrificial lambs were led into the city. To rebuild this section of the wall and the big city gates would take enough lumber to build a town. This was not small task that these people took on. The wood cutting tools of the day were not what we have today. Where today a tree feller can expect to cut down 6-10 thousand board feet of lumber in a day, two men would take all day to fell one tree in these days. We now bring lumber to the mill at speeds up to 60 MPH. The top speed of log transport in the days of the Bible was 4 MPH, and that speed did not happen very often. This was a monumental task these people took on. They began their work at the Sheep Gate.
Do you have the faith in God to take on a job as big as this? |

Direct Me, O Lord
Direct me, O Lord To where you want me to be Give light to my steps And a lamp to my feet Give me your wisdom So I’ll know which road to take And know the twists and turns And when I need to wait All these things O Lord Are important in our walk So we won’t go the wrong way Forgetting what you’ve taught Let us know your will The plans you have for us So we may fulfil our destiny And be walking in your love So that others may also Come to know your ways And follow after you O Lord And walk within your grace © By M.S.Lowndes |
