The words of Nehemiah the son of Hachaliah. And it came to pass in the month Chisleu, in the twentieth year, as I was in Shushan the palace,2 That Hanani, one of my brethren, came, he and certain men of Judah; and I asked them concerning the Jews that had escaped, which were left of the captivity, and concerning Jerusalem.3 And they said unto me, The remnant that are left of the captivity there in the province are in great affliction and reproach: the wall of Jerusalem also is broken down, and the gates thereof are burned with fire.4 And it came to pass, when I heard these words, that I sat down and wept, and mourned certain days, and fasted, and prayed before the God of heaven,5 And said, I beseech thee, O Lord God of heaven, the great and terrible God, that keepeth covenant and mercy for them that love him and observe his commandments:6 Let thine ear now be attentive, and thine eyes open, that thou mayest hear the prayer of thy servant, which I pray before thee now, day and night, for the children of Israel thy servants, and confess the sins of the children of Israel, which we have sinned against thee: both I and my father's house have sinned.7 We have dealt very corruptly against thee, and have not kept the commandments, nor the statutes, nor the judgments, which thou commandedst thy servant Moses.8 Remember, I beseech thee, the word that thou commandedst thy servant Moses, saying, If ye transgress, I will scatter you abroad among the nations:9 But if ye turn unto me, and keep my commandments, and do them; though there were of you cast out unto the uttermost part of the heaven, yet will I gather them from thence, and will bring them unto the place that I have chosen to set my name there.10 Now these are thy servants and thy people, whom thou hast redeemed by thy great power, and by thy strong hand.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. For I was the king's cupbearer.

Ezra 9-10; Nehemiah 1

Send me a Text Message!This episode is going to hit on a few of my favorite themes, calling, travailing prayer, revival, finishing well, and God's desire to do a new thing. You know I have found over and over again, that it's difficult, to finish well, if we aren't willing to lean into new things. And it's almost impossible to lean into new things, without being done with the old things. So my question is, "Are we done with the old things?" As a church are we done with the old things? I long to see the church shine bright like a city on a hill. I long for us to be known as the hands and heart of Christ. I still believe that the church that Jesus is building is the hope of the world. I want to be part of that church and I'm praying for that church to be done with old things. Do you know what the Bible calls being done with old things? It's called repentance. That's where we will end this episode, with a call to repentance. 

Message from Andrew Robbins on May 31, 2026

Send me a Text Message!In this episode we will ponder what it takes to finish well. That's one of the themes that I take with me from the first half of Nehemiah into the second half. John Ortberg writes, "The capacity to finish well is what the New Testament writers called endurance or perseverance....any truly meaningful human accomplishment  will require perseverance. Bobby Clinton defined finishing well as coming to the end of my life being more in love with Jesus than I was in the beginning; having a sense of the unique contribution that God has desired to work through me, and not flaming out through moral sin.None of that happens without perseverance. Finishing well requires a series of breakthroughs that only come with hopeful expectancy. What is the next step you need to take on the journey of finishing well?

Nehemiah was an ordinary man with an extraordinary burden. When he heard that Jerusalem's walls were broken down, he didn't rush into action. He wept, fasted, prayed, waited, and trusted God to open the right door at the right time.In Nehemiah 2, we see how God strengthens faith in the waiting, forges faith through prayer, and activates faith through obedience. Nehemiah's burden became conviction, his conviction became action, and his action invited others into the work God was doing.This message challenges us to ask: What is keeping us from being used by God? Too often, our excuses override our obedience. But God still uses ordinary people who are willing to pray, trust, act, sacrifice, and step into His mission.

Verse-by-verse through the book of Nehemiah!

Nehemiah was a real man, in a real place, facing a real burden. When he heard that Jerusalem was in great trouble, its walls broken down and its gates destroyed, his first response was not strategy, control, or panic. He wept, fasted, prayed, confessed, and turned to the God of heaven.In this message, we begin a study through Nehemiah and look at the kind of person God uses: ordinary people with kingdom-minded hearts, deep dependence on God, lives rooted in prayer, and a willingness to repent honestly before Him.Nehemiah reminds us that ministry is not just for pastors or professionals. All of God's people are called to live with purpose, to care about God's honor in the world, and to let His kingdom define every part of life.

What do you do when the burden is too big, the problem feels impossible, and you do not know where to begin? In this sermon from Nehemiah 1, we see how God forms a leader through grief, prayer, confession, and dependence. Nehemiah teaches us that before God rebuilds walls through us, He often rebuilds something within us. When the need is overwhelming, prayer is not a delay from the work — prayer is where the work begins.In this message, Pastor Aaron unpacks how Nehemiah responds to brokenness with compassion, courage, and faith in a God who is bigger than the problem.

In Ezra 10 and Nehemiah 1–3, the people repent and separate from foreign marriages, and Nehemiah leads efforts to rebuild Jerusalem's walls despite opposition.Read the WHOLE Bible with me!

Dive into the historical and spiritual journey of Nehemiah, a cupbearer turned leader, as he rebuilds Jerusalem's walls. This episode of Bible Discovery delves into Nehemiah Chapter 2, exploring his significant influence and the challenges faced by the Israelites. Join Rod Hembrough, Corey, and Ryan as they uncover the lessons from Nehemiah's story and its relevance for modern believers.

A new MP3 sermon from Christ Covenant Reformed Presbyterian is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: Nehemiah 1 (2026) Subtitle: Scripture Readings Speaker: Rev. Todd Ruddell Broadcaster: Christ Covenant Reformed Presbyterian Event: Sunday - PM Date: 5/3/2026 Bible: Nehemiah 1 Length: 12 min.

In the book of Nehemiah, we pick up the story of God's people continuing to rebuild their city. When Nehemiah, one of Israel's leaders, hears about trouble in Jerusalem, he doesn't react impulsively or cynically. Instead, he strives to honor God and others in how he prayers, responds to trouble, and helps build his city. Over time, God begins to shape Nehemiah's heart before calling him to step into action. As we continue to look ahead at who we want to become through this building initiative, we want to be honor-filled like Nehemiah. To do that, we must examine how we respond to brokenness, how we pray, and where we fall short of honoring God and others.

Friday Bible Study (4/24/26) // Nehemiah 1:4-11 (ESV) // Nehemiah's Prayer // 4 As soon as I heard these words I sat down and wept and mourned for days, and I continued fasting and praying before the God of heaven. 5 And I said, “O Lord God of heaven, the great and awesome God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, 6 let your ear be attentive and your eyes open, to hear the prayer of your servant that I now pray before you day and night for the people of Israel your servants, confessing the sins of the people of Israel, which we have sinned against you. Even I and my father's house have sinned. 7 We have acted very corruptly against you and have not kept the commandments, the statutes, and the rules that you commanded your servant Moses. 8 Remember the word that you commanded your servant Moses, saying, ‘If you are unfaithful, I will scatter you among the peoples, 9 but if you return to me and keep my commandments and do them, though your outcasts are in the uttermost parts of heaven, from there I will gather them and bring them to the place that I have chosen, to make my name dwell there.' 10 They are your servants and your people, whom you have redeemed by your great power and by your strong hand. 11 O Lord, let your ear be attentive to the prayer of your servant, and to the prayer of your servants who delight to fear your name, and give success to your servant today, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man.”Now I was cupbearer to the king.Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://mbchicago.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ FOLLOW USFacebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  / mbc.chicago  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  / mbc.chicago  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  / mbc.chicago  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ TO SUPPORT US Zelle to: info@mbchicago.org Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://mbchicago.org/give⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Venmo: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://venmo.com/mbchurch⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ DAF Donations: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://every.org/mbc.chicago⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ PayPal: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://paypal.com/donate/?hosted_but...⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ #Nehemiah #BookOfNehemiah #BibleStudy #BibleExplained #Bible #BiblicalStudies #BibleTeacher #WordOfGod #BiblicalLessons #rebuild #Jerusalem #walls

Send me a Text Message!In the midst of all the rubble, all the pain, all the conflict, all the brokenness in our world, I am reminded of this. I am reminded that God is our Unwavering Certainty in the midst of uncertainty. He is our Loving Father who covers us in his love when we are prone to fear. He's our Overflowing Spirit when scarcity whispers, protectwhat is yours. He is our Sacrificial Savior when we are not sure what love does. He is our Almighty King, our Redeemer and in the end, when we see Him, what was lost will be found and what was broken will made whole. Glory is coming and I am filled with hope. If you need a breakthrough, that's not a bad place to start!

Send me a Text Message!Are we owning our rubble? That's the question that will end this episode. Remember the BLESS acronymn that gives us some rebuilding, story-writing, principles? B is for "Be Still." L is "Look for the rubble." Nehemiah allows his heart to be saturated by the brokenness of people and causes. He looked for the rubble. But he didn't just look for it. He owned it. And owning it led to a turn of the page. We live a culture that has a hard time seeing our own rubble. We can see it in others, the other side, the other team, the other person. But when I see it in me, when I own it, that leads to breakthrough.So are you owning your rubble?

How do you react when you hear that God's work is in trouble?

Discover how God uses ordinary individuals with extraordinary burdens to bring restoration and hope.About This Message: In this introductory study of Nehemiah 1:1-3, we are introduced to Nehemiah, the cupbearer to the King of Persia.

Send me a Text Message!You won't find much written on travailing prayer today. If you want to read about travailing prayer you have to read old books, and listen to old sermons, sermons and books birthed in revival. And yet, the Bible's pages are filled with examples of people who wrestled with God, travailed, groaned and cried out in prayer to see God's purposes birthed in their lives and the lives of broken people around them. Nehemiah wept. He mourned and fasted and prayed because of the brokenness around him. Not just broken walls, but broken lives. Because of broken lives, Nehemiah prayed with a broken heart. I don't believe we will find our breakthrough if we aren't willing to allow the brokenness that leads to travailing prayer. So Nehemiah's question of us is, "What wrecks my heart and stirs my passion? And have I ever allowed that brokenness to lead me to travailing prayer?

Send me a Text Message!In this episode, I'll start with a question for you to ask yourself, "When I look around at a broken world, what grabs my heart? What is broken in the world, or who is broken in the world, that breaks my heart?" Another way to ask that question is, "What is my holy discontent?" Sometimes, some of us...myself  included...we want to medicate our hearts so that we don't feel the pain of a broken world. We put walls around our hearts. What we need are hearts without walls that reveal the heart of God to a world in need of love. At Calvary we say that we want to be living proof of a loving God! Perhaps that starts by asking the question, "What is my holy discontent?"

Send me a Text Message!Over and over again, through the years, I've prayed Tozer's prayer, "Lord make me a person to whom you can entrust your glory." But Nehemiah is a reminder that we probably won't see His glory without some of groaning on our part. Awhile back, while pondering where I see God's hand in my life, I felt like He said, "Dan I can't trust you with my glory, if I can't trust you with my cross." I won't let you see me in the glory if you can't see my hand in the cross, in your weakness, in your groaning and suffering, in your story. If your life isn't finished, your story isn't over...but we won't find the glory without going through some mess. So is there glory in your story?

Message from The Summit Church, Raleigh-Durham, NC - February 15, 2026

New series for the next seven weeks through the book of Nehemiah called burdens to breakthroughs and what it looks like to build space where people encounter God and experience grace. The message today is entitled broken with a burden, blessed with a breakthrough. So often we want the second without the first. I'm going to show you today and throughout this series the importance of the first part and the process it takes to get from burden to blessing.

Today’s Bible Verse: “When I heard these things, I sat down and wept. For some days I mourned and fasted and prayed before the God of heaven.” — Nehemiah 1:4 Nehemiah 1:4 shows us the power of a heart that responds to brokenness with prayer. Before Nehemiah took action, he took time to grieve, fast, and seek God. His leadership began not with strategy, but with surrender. “Want to listen without ads?
