Nehemiah, Part 36: Protecting What We Have I (Neh. 7)
by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on May 25, 2025)
Now that the rebuilding project had been completed, you might think the next verse would read, “And they all lived happily ever after.” But we all know that’s not true! Sometimes after the great “mountain top experiences” of life, our most difficult tests come around. In Nehemiah Chapter 7, we learn that God is just as interested in protecting that which He has blessed us with, as in giving it to us in the first place. Today, we see the Nehemiah did that by focusing upon recruiting godly leadership to help him in protecting the blessings he had received from God.
