Nehemiah 2:1-8

After four months of praying, Nehemiah knew the time had come to approach the king with his request for Jerusalem. On a particular day, Nehemiah and his band of prayer warriors appealed to the Lord to move Artaxerxes to show mercy to Nehemiah. In the Lord’s providence, God opened the doors of opportunity far wider than he could have expected as he was granted permission to go to rebuild Jerusalem’s walls with the king’s blessing and provisions. This message explores how to pray in a way that prevails.
