Vision starts in a leaders heart, but renewal happens when people say, “yes Let's do this!”

Nehemiah 31) Nehemiah 1:1-11 This chapter looks at the state of the people of God. They are in exile, seemingly defeated. The walls are broken and the gate is burned (v3). Nehemiah is emotionally moved by the state of God's people (v4) but instead of resigning himself to pessimism, he confesses the weaknesses of the past (v6-7) and trusts in God's promises (v5-6, 8-11).

"Revival That Lasts"(If You Build It, He Will Come - Nehemiah Series, Part 4)Nehemiah, 8:1-3, 5-6Revive Us AgainWhat comes to mind when you think of the word revival? Does it take you back to your childhood when churches would hold services every night of the week in an attempt to recapture the love of Christ again?  There's absolutely nothing wrong with a church attempting to grow closer to God through a week of services to seek His face but real, lasting revival begins in an individual's heart, then spreads to his or her family and then spreads to the church, then the community and then quite possibly the nation. Taken from the root word revive, it quite literally means to bring back to life, to become active, to flourish again. Our nation and our world are in a state of decay. The more that God is removed from a society, the more that society descends into depravity, filth, moral decay and chaos. We are living in a time where everyone does what is right in their own eyes. Absolute truth is becoming unacceptable and intolerable, especially the Word of God. The Truth of Scripture has even become intolerable in many churches. The Truth of God's Word has been exchanged for a lie. Many churches are lukewarm at best, many more are dead altogether. But Christian, all is not lost. This Sunday we will finish our 4-week sermon series in Nehemiah with Nehemiah Part 4: Revival That Lasts. God used Nehemiah to bring about revival in Jerusalem. The Lord began by placing a burden in Nehemiah's heart for the Jewish people and for the city of Jerusalem. Then Nehemiah, as cupbearer to the king, moved forward in faith by asking King Artaxerxes of Persia to not only let him travel to Jerusalem but to fund the rebuilding of the wall.  Then Nehemiah inspired and rallied the Jewish people to accomplish the impossible, to rebuild 2 ½ miles of completely destroyed and burned walls and gates surrounding the city of Jerusalem and with God's help, they did it in just 52 days! In this final sermon, we will learn how God used both Nehemiah and Ezra to not only bring about revival for the Lord, but revival that would last. Ezra read the forgotten Word of God to the Jewish people and they responded with confession of sin and a returning to God. Beloved, our God is a God of mercy, his heart is always longing for forgiveness, restoration and revival. I believe we witnessed the beginning of a revival in this country 3 years ago, February 8th, 2023 on the campus of Asbury University in Wilmore, Kentucky. No famous theologians, no big-name worship leaders or musicians...just a group of students who were hungry for an encounter with God. They humbly confessed their sins and shortcomings and simply poured out their hearts to Jesus. That revival spread to many other college campuses around the country and it's still burning today.Christian, do you long for revival? God is always ready!  If you'll completely and humbly confess your sins and surrender your life to the Lordship of Jesus Christ, then you are positioned for revival to break out in your own heart, and in the hearts of your family members and then who knows, perhaps then in your church, your community, the nation and the world. All things are indeed possible with our great God!Revive us again Lord, I pray! I love y'all...Your brother in Christ Jesus our Lorddoug 2 Chronicles 7:14If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

If You Build It, He Will Come, Nehemiah Part 1: Burden Before Breakthrough Nehemiah 1:1-11 Every great work of God begins not with a blueprint, but with a broken heart. Before a single stone was laid in Jerusalem, there was a burden. Obedience to God invites His presence and activity. When we say yes to what He is stirring in us, He shows up in ways we could never manufacture on our own.• The burden comes before the breakthrough• God does not give you a burden without a plan• The broken heart is the beginning of something extraordinary Nehemiah's first response was not a plan, it was prayer. His prayer gives us a three-part model for responding to the burdens God places on us:1. CONFESSION (vs. 6-7) — He said 'we,' not 'they.' He owned the brokenness as his own. Corporate humility creates space for God to move.2. COVENANT REMINDER (vs. 8-9) — He prayed Scripture back to God. He stood on God's promises and said, 'Lord, You said this. I am holding You to it.' When walls look broken, go back to what God has said.3. BOLD PETITION (vs. 10-11) — He asked specifically for favor before the king. Not vague. Not passive. He knew what he needed and he asked.The prayer moves from humility to hope, from 'we have sinned' to 'give me success today.'Beloved, God does not give you a burden without a plan. The burden is not the end of the story, it is the beginning of the breakthrough.We have a promise from God Almighty. If we build our lives on Jesus, the Cornerstone of our faith, He will come and lead us and guide us and shepherd us. Jesus said that He is the Vine and we are the branches. If we abide in Him, He promises to abide in us.I pray that you will join us this Sunday as we study the life of Nehemiah. Christian, his story is our story too. Jesus wants to use you and I to build his glorious kingdom one life at a time.I love y'alldoug

What happens when good intentions fade and old habits return? In the final week of From the Ground Up, Lead Pastor Steve Garcia walks through Nehemiah 13, where promises are broken, compromise creeps in, and God's people drift once again.  This closing message reminds us that while Nehemiah could rebuild walls, only Jesus can rebuild hearts.  Through Nehemiah's reforms, we learn how to get back on track — and why we ultimately need a Savior who can change us from the inside out. If you've ever fallen back into old patterns or struggled to keep the commitments you made to God, this message points you to hope, grace, and the true Rebuilder. - NEXT STEPS  Looking to take your next step?  We want to help!

What do you do after the rebuilding is finished — but you still feel spiritually empty? In week seven of From the Ground Up, Pastor David Gaunt takes us through Nehemiah 7–9, where God shows that restoring walls was never the end goal — restoring hearts was.  Through genealogies, worship, repentance, and revival, we see that God is the Promise Keeper who rebuilds more than structures… He rebuilds people. If you've ever felt discouraged, spiritually dry, or unsure of what God is doing in your life, this message will remind you: the God who rebuilds walls also restores hearts. - NEXT STEPS  Looking to take your next step?  We want to help!

In week six of From the Ground Up, Lead Pastor Steve Garcia walks us through Nehemiah 6, where the wall is nearly complete — and the enemy intensifies the attacks.  Through Nehemiah's discernment, courage, and devotion to God, we learn how to see clearly and act wisely in a world filled with pressure and deception. If you feel pulled, pressured, or spiritually worn down, this message will strengthen your resolve and refocus your heart on the great work God is calling you to. - NEXT STEPS  Looking to take your next step?  We want to help!

From the Ground Up | Nehemiah Pt. 5 | Carlo Mendoza | Sunrise Church CA What do you do when the biggest threat to your progress isn't coming from the outside — but from within? In week five of From the Ground Up, Pastor Carlo Mendoza takes us into Nehemiah 5, where internal conflict nearly derails the rebuilding project.  In this powerful message, we discover that finishing well requires courage to confront what's wrong, wisdom to examine our motives, and humility to build a legacy that honors God and serves others.
