Description

Episode Summary 

Perseverance is a requirement for reaching any worthwhile goal and a quality that God constantly seeks to build into his children. As we come to the closing chapter in our study of Nehemiah, we continue to see an inspiring leader at work, in this case a leader who persevered, a leader who confronted sin when it needed to be dealt with, and a leader who finished his race well.

For Further Prayerful Thought

1. What is your reaction to the direct match in chapter 10 (what the inhabitants of Judah vowed), with chapter 13, (the vows they had broken)?
2. What have you discovered to be the hardest part of confrontation?
3. Have you made commitments during a spiritual high that you found tough to keep when you were spiritually low? What have you discovered about keeping your spiritual passion high? What have you discovered about watching over your heart?
4. What do you find most encouraging about Jeremiah’s prophecy of the New Covenant that Hebrews 8 tells us has come to pass in Christ?
