9:38-10:29 The View 10:29-39 The Commitment 11:1-36 The Resettlement Nehemiah 9:38-11:36 9:38-10:29 The View 10:29-39 The Commitment 11:1-36 The Resettlement

8:38-10:29 The View Our view of God influences our response to Him. A right view of God is found in scripture.

The View How would you describe your view of God today? Through what lens do you view yourself and your life?

10:29-39 The Commitment The focus of their commitment: God’s Word Relationships Rest Ministry-Worship

Relationships Do not be misled; bad company corrupts good character. 1 Corinthians 15:33

Sabbath Rest “Seek first His kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” Matthew 6:33-34

We will not neglect the house of our God. Nehemiah 10:39 Ministry - Worship We will not neglect the house of our God. Nehemiah 10:39

How do you need to make a fresh commitment from God’s view How do you need to make a fresh commitment from God’s view? Relationships Rest Ministry

Commitment How are you recognizing “bad company corrupts good character”? What will you do in response to this? How is God calling you to trust Him with your work while you honor Sabbath rest? How are you committed to supporting the ministry of the church today? Are you giving “first” or from what is left over?

Resettlement “He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear the Lord and put their trust in Him.” Psalm 40:2

Resettlement Our Sovereign God is the author of history. History is “HIS-story” How will your name be listed?

How is your view of God influencing your relationships, rest and commitment to ministry? How is your view of God influencing where and how you life your life?

1 Peter 2:4-17 (The Message) Welcome to the living Stone, the source of life. The workmen took one look and threw it out; God set it in the place of honor. Present yourselves as building stones for the construction of a sanctuary vibrant with life, in which you’ll serve as holy priests offering Christ-approved lives up to God.

The Scriptures provide precedent: Look The Scriptures provide precedent: Look! I’m setting a stone in Zion, a cornerstone in the place of honor. Whoever trusts in this stone as a foundation, will never have cause to regret it. To you who trust him, he’s a Stone to be proud of, but to those who refuse to trust him, The stone the workmen threw out is now the chief foundation stone.

For the untrusting it’s a stone to trip over, a boulder blocking the way. They trip and fall because they refuse to obey, just as predicted. 9-10 But you are the ones chosen by God, chosen for the high calling of priestly work, chosen to be a holy people, God’s instruments to do his work and speak out for him, to tell others of the night- and-day difference he made for you—from nothing to something, from rejected to accepted.

11-12 Friends, this world is not your home, so don’t make yourselves cozy in it. Don’t indulge your ego at the expense of your soul. Live an exemplary life among the natives so that your actions will refute their prejudices. Then they’ll be won over to God’s side and be there to join in the celebration when he arrives.

1 Peter 2:4-17 (The Message) 13-17 Make the Master proud of you by being good citizens. Respect the authorities, whatever their level; they are God’s emissaries for keeping order. It is God’s will that by doing good, you might cure the ignorance of the fools who think you’re a danger to society. Exercise your freedom by serving God, not by breaking the rules. Treat everyone you meet with dignity. Love your spiritual family. Revere God. Respect the government.
