Day 11: Nehemiah 11~Ways God Fills Our Empty Places


Hey Reader,

Have you ever felt like there were gaps or empty spaces in your life? Places that felt vulnerable to the enemy's attacks?

I know I have. But in today's powerful Bible study on Nehemiah 11, we discover how Nehemiah helped repopulate Jerusalem after the Israelites returned from exile. The enemy was looking for those empty, vulnerable places to attack, and Nehemiah knew they needed to fill the city to keep it secure.

I know it's not always easy. Following Jesus often requires sacrifice and doing difficult tasks that others may be unwilling to do. But when we say "yes" to God, even when it's hard, He will use our obedience for His glory.

Watch today's full teaching on Nehemiah 11 for more encouragement on how to live a life fully surrendered to God. And be sure to grab the Nehemiah Bible study guide to enhance your personal study time!

Let's chat in the comments: How is God challenging you to fill the empty places in your life with more of Him?

Praying for you to experience the fullness of God's presence today!

Reader, Today, we begin. Colossians was written by the apostle Paul while imprisoned, to a church he'd never visited but deeply cared for. That church was being pulled toward ideas that mixed truth with philosophy, legalism, and mysticism. Paul's response is one of the most exalted descriptions of Christ in the New Testament: the image of the invisible God, the one in whom all things hold together, the head of the church. Today's video went live at 7:00 a.m. ET and walks through that overview...
