New Years: A Time for Rebuilding
Nehemiah 2:11-20
Skip Heitzig
Nehemiah 2 (NKJV™) | |
11 | So I came to Jerusalem and was there three days. |
12 | Then I arose in the night, I and a few men with me; I told no one what my God had put in my heart to do at Jerusalem; nor was there any animal with me, except the one on which I rode. |
13 | And I went out by night through the Valley Gate to the Serpent Well and the Refuse Gate, and viewed the walls of Jerusalem which were broken down and its gates which were burned with fire. |
14 | Then I went on to the Fountain Gate and to the King's Pool, but there was no room for the animal under me to pass. |
15 | So I went up in the night by the valley, and viewed the wall; then I turned back and entered by the Valley Gate, and so returned. |
16 | And the officials did not know where I had gone or what I had done; I had not yet told the Jews, the priests, the nobles, the officials, or the others who did the work. |
17 | Then I said to them, "You see the distress that we are in, how Jerusalem lies waste, and its gates are burned with fire. Come and let us build the wall of Jerusalem, that we may no longer be a reproach." |
18 | And I told them of the hand of my God which had been good upon me, and also of the king's words that he had spoken to me. So they said, "Let us rise up and build." Then they set their hands to this good work. |
19 | But when Sanballat the Horonite, Tobiah the Ammonite official, and Geshem the Arab heard of it, they laughed at us and despised us, and said, "What is this thing that you are doing? Will you rebel against the king?" |
20 | So I answered them, and said to them, "The God of heaven Himself will prosper us; therefore we His servants will arise and build, but you have no heritage or right or memorial in Jerusalem." |

Glance Backward; Go Forward; Gaze Upward Genesis 16 Skip Heitzig |
Info Message Summary I like to use the week between Christmas and New Year’s to gain some needed perspective. I usually gather together an inventory of thoughts, plans, and projects—some I’ve completed and many I have not. I like to get nostalgic and recollect my life’s journey so far and then think about the future, including what friends and family I need to reconnect with. These exercises help me find meaning in my life’s journey as I submit them for heaven’s final approval. |

Where Are We Going? Philippians 3:12-16 Skip Heitzig |

But the work is not complete. On the brink of the new year, let's consider these words of the apostle Paul, and apply some important principles that will help us finish the race well. |

Holes in the Walls Nehemiah 2:11-18 Skip Heitzig |
Info Message Summary With the coming of a New Year comes the evaluation of the old one. Today I'd like to speak candidly about some concerns that I see within the "Christian Camp" as we face the New Year. Picture your life like the four walls within an ancient city (Jerusalem in Nehemiah's time). For the city to be safe, productive, and thriving, the holes in the walls need to be closed and the gates carefully guarded. Consider carefully (and prayerfully) these four vulnerable areas in the coming year: |

New Years Revolution! 1 Thessalonians 5:14-22 Skip Heitzig |
Info Message Summary This is typically the time of year we pause to take personal inventory. How far have we come? What goals have we met? How could we do things differently? This is the stuff that makes for New Years resolutions. But in making them, where should we aim? How high should we aim? What is the best way to live our lives in the coming year? I say we could use less resolutions and more of a revolution—i.e. radical change! |

A Clear Path in a Foggy Future Joshua 3:1-10 Skip Heitzig |
Info Message Summary Do you remember lying in bed as a child wondering what you would be doing in the future? Questions like, “Who will I marry? Where will I be living? How many kids will I have?” occupied our imagination. Everyone wonders about his or her future and, around New Years, such speculation is rampant. But as believers we can walk on firmer ground. With God at the helm, life’s journey can be an exciting adventure. And since we’re already assured of the destination of this earthly pilgrimage, let’s enjoy the ride! |
