1Seeing it Through, part 2
2Nehemiahs Big Ideas
Get There!
31 The wall had been rebuilt. I had put up the
gates at the main entrances to the city. Those
who guarded the gates were appointed to their
positions. So were the singers and Levites. 2 I
put my brother Hanani in charge of Jerusalem.
Hananiah helped him. Hananiah was commander of
the fort that was by the temple. Hanani was an
honest man. He had more respect for God than most
people do. Nehemiah 71-2 (NIrV)
4Get there, but... Dont Stay There!
512 ... I press on ... because Christ Jesus has
made me his own. 13 Brothers, I do not consider
that I have made it. But one thing I do
forgetting what lies behind and straining forward
to what lies ahead, 14 I press on toward the
goal for the prize of the upward call of God in
Christ Jesus. Philippians 312-14 (ESV)
6Its not about me! (emphasize spiritual priority)
