The Psalms have much to teach us about how to relate to God - when we are in pain, when we are being persecuted, and when we are celebrating.

Providence and Sovereignty to hand in hand. As John MacArthur states, in defining providence: it is God orchestrating all natural laws, human actions, and possibilities to achieve His precise will without interrupting the normal course of life.

Being a father and/or leader is something each of us may be, at one time or another. And maybe even without realizing it. Nehemiah shows us what makes a good leader.

Serving God starts with a heart attitude. God started the rebuilding project by working and preparing Nehemiah's heart.

Divine Providence can be summed up as "God's gracious oversight over everything." He is actively involved in everything and is in control of everything.

When Nehemiah found out about how things were in Jerusalem, his first thought wasn't what he could do about it, he turned immediately to God in prayer and what the cause of the problem was and how big God was and what He could do about it.

True joy is found in a right relationship with Christ - and that is only found with a heart of real repentance.

As we expand on the theme of prayer from Nehemiah 1, we see how James shows us that patient, persistent prayer can have a powerful effect with an example from the life of Elijah.

Another example of intercessory prayer is Abraham (and Job). We look at 7 characteristics of their prayers.

Both Nehemiah and Daniel are examples of how a full prayer life can give you strength and wisdom to handle life's difficulties and struggles.
