Revival Nights – The Finale

Nehemiah 1:3-4  //  “They said to me, ‘Those who survived the exile and are back in the  province are in great trouble and disgrace. The wall of Jerusalem is  broken down, and its gates have been burned with fire.’ When I  heard these things I sat down and wept… 
Nehemiah 6:15-16  //  “So the wall was completed … in fifty-two days … with the help of  our God.”  
Nehemiah 2:20  //  “The God of Heaven will give us success; We his servants will arise  and build.’”
1. God CENTERED (God of Heaven)
Nehemiah 1:4-9  //  “When I heard these things, I sat down and wept. For some days I  mourned and fasted and prayed before the God of heaven. Then I  said: ‘Lord, the God of heaven, the great and awesome God, who  keeps his covenant of love with those who love him and keep his  commandments, let your ear be attentive and your eyes open to  hear the prayer your servant is praying before you day and night for  your servants, the people of Israel. I confess the sins we Israelites,  including myself and my father’s family, have committed against  you. We have acted very wickedly toward you. We have not obeyed  the commands, decrees and laws you gave your servant Moses.  Remember the instruction you gave your servant Moses, saying, ‘If you are unfaithful, I will scatter you among the nations, but if you  return to me and obey my commands, then even if your exiled  people are at the farthest horizon, I will gather them from there and  bring them to the place I have chosen as a dwelling for my  Name.’”
