Nehemiah Rebuilds the Wall

Bible Point: God helps us face challenges

Key Verse:
“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men” (Colossians 3:23).

Bible Exploration: Nehemiah 2:11-6:19

To think about and discuss:
1. Which character traits of Nehemiah helped him to face challenges so well?
2. Why did God help Nehemiah and the other Jews?
3. If you were suddenly placed in Nehemiah’s shoes, which truths about God would be important to remember?

Family Worship Challenge
  • Have family members brainstorm about challenging situations in which people need to pray and ask God for strength, wisdom, and protection. After brainstorming, have each person mention a difficult situation he or she is facing (or has recently faced), and talk
    about ways to plan ahead for the next challenge and what it means to rely on God.
