Nehemiah: Brick by Brick
Nehemiah: Brick by Brick
Sometimes life feels too broken to fix. But the story of Nehemiah shows us that with God, restoration is always possible.
In our series Brick by Brick, we’ll follow Nehemiah’s journey from heartbreak to hope as he leads the rebuilding of Jerusalem’s walls. It all started with one man’s burden, a prayer, and a step of faith.
Each week, we’ll explore what God rebuilt through Nehemiah—and what He might want to restore in us. This isn’t just about ancient ruins. It’s about reclaiming faith, renewing purpose, and rebuilding what’s been broken in our lives and in our church.
No matter where you are, you’re invited to join the journey. Let’s see what God wants to build brick by brick.
Day 2: Faithful Leaders Make the Difference
Nehemiah 7:1–2
When Nehemiah was ready to move on, he didn’t just leave a job half done. He appointed leaders who were faithful and God-fearing. He handed off responsibility to people he trusted.
This is what discipleship looks like. It’s not about doing everything yourself—it’s about raising others up to carry the mission forward. That takes humility. It takes intentionality. And it takes trust that God is the one who truly holds it all together.
Reflection: Who has poured into your life as a faithful leader? Who are you pouring into? Are you raising someone up to take your place when the time comes?
