The People Worked With All Their Heart

Nehemiah 3:1-4:6

Key verse: 4:6

So we rebuilt the wall. We repaired it until all of it was half as high as we wanted it to be. The people worked with all their heart.

1. Skim through chapter 3. How did the people work together to rebuild the wall? Who participated?

2. Read 4:1-5. How did Sanballat and Tobiah make fun of the workers? What did Nehemiah do? What can we learn from his prayer? What can we learn about God’s will for those who make fun of God’s people?

3. Read verse 6. How much of the wall was rebuilt? How were the people able to be successful? Why is it important to do God’s work with all our heart?
