Sermons About Nehemiah
Stick to the Plan
Distraction, Diversion and Discrediting are all ways that are used to make followers of Jesus Christ deviate (go off course) from the plan that God has for their life. It is easy to get sidetracked and derailed by even good things. The goal of the believer must be to pursue the best thing, the plan that God has for them. Regarding following Christ we need to keep it simple and stick to the plan.

In$ide Out
Some of the most destructive opposition we will face in our lives does not come at us from the outside. The insidious nature that is found on the inside will destroy much more quickly. In Nehemiah chapter 5 we find that God's chosen people are imploding with sin from the Inside out. The catalyst for the sin is the love of money. If we are going to see God build his church and his kingdom then his people are going to need to be transformed from the Inside Out.

overcoming OPPOSITION
Into every life a little rain must fall...that's an understatement when the deluge of opposition hits your life. Jesus said in John 16:33, "In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” Overcoming opposition is not as easy at it sounds but for the follower in Jesus Christ it not only possible but expected. Learn from Nehemiah the 2400 yr. old secrets of overcoming Opposition.

Don't Quit Building Walls
In Pastor Mike's final sermon Cornerstone Baptist Church before leaving for seminary, he examines the life of Nehemiah. God led Nehemiah to go rebuild the walls around Jerusalem. This sermon looks Nehemiah's life and at all the opposition that came from the enemies of God as he led the Jews in rebuilding the walls around the city. No matter what Satan and the world through at Nehemiah though; he never quit building the walls for God. We likewise must never quit serving God and building the walls that are the tasks he has given each of us to do. Each of as blood bought born again Christian needs to remind ourselves why we can't quit serving God. I can't quit because...

Nehemiah 5: The Road to Revival: What Does Your Life Look Like?
The Building of the wall was just part of the goal of Nehemiah. The real goal... evangelism... to tell the nations the greatness of God. The "nobles" forgot this purpose. So often in our lives we are scared to share the Good News with others. We may be afraid we won't know what to say or that we will say something wrong. But, the reality is... you could do a lot more damage to the Gospel with the way you live than with what you say or don't say. Ought we not to fear the Lord? Are you looking to serve or be served?

motion
MOTION: noun - the action or process of moving or being moved. When it comes to our lives we all want to have momentum but there will be no momentum if don't courageously get into motion. Jesus did not say to the disciples, "come and stand by me". He said, "come and follow me". Nehemiah 2:11-20 chronicles a man whom God has stirred and has been set in in motion. We must embrace with Nehemiah that our faith is meant to be active.
