Rev. Tim Winterstein, pastor of Faith Lutheran Church in East Wenatchee, WA joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study Nehemiah 2.

The hand of God granted Nehemiah the opportunity to return to Jerusalem, gather timber, inspect the wall, and recruit workers. Although there was opposition it was God who made sure it was built. We are reminded that we give thanks to God for all His blessings and trust in His promises. Too often we can assume that what we have and accomplish is due to our hand, but it is clear that “unless the LORD builds the house, those who build it labor in vain (Psalm 127:1).” “Lord God, help us to trust that Your good hand is upon us and give us lips to give You all glory grounded in Your work in Christ. Amen”
