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!

Hey Reader, We’ve reached the final part of our When Mountains Don’t Move series. Over the past two Mondays, we’ve journeyed to Mount Sinai to experience God’s covenant in solitude and to Mount Carmel to see His power revealed in the midst of opposition. Today, we climb our last mountain together—one that takes us beyond the familiar into the breathtaking. On Mount Tabor, Jesus revealed His supernatural glory to a select few disciples, leaving them forever changed. This final mountain reminds...

When Mountains Don't Move Weekly Devotional Series

Hey Reader, Welcome to Part Two of our When Mountains Don’t Move series. Last week, we looked at Mount Sinai and how God often reveals His covenant nature in the stillness of solitude. This week, we’re shifting from the quiet of the mountain top to the intensity of the crowd. Some mountains require us to stand alone, but others require us to stand among many—sometimes in the middle of open opposition. In today’s devotional, we’ll step onto Mount Carmel with Elijah and see how God uses these...

Hey Reader, I’m so excited to walk with you through our new three-part devotional series called When Mountains Don’t Move. Each Monday over the next three weeks, we’ll explore how God uses the “mountains” in our lives—not just as obstacles to be removed, but as sacred spaces where He reveals His character, deepens our faith, and anchors His promises in our hearts. And as we look ahead, mark your calendar: in September, we’ll begin our next Bible study on 1st and 2nd Thessalonians. It’s going...
