Let's Read: Psalm 89: 31 - 38, Nehemiah 1 and 2, Apocalypse 18
"Come, let us rebuild the wall of Jerusalem,
and we will not be in disgrace. "
Nehemiah 2: 17
Meditate:
- What God has planned for the descendants of David (Ps. 89: es 31.)? What the Lord is there any different (vs. 34-38)? How the offspring of David still does today (vs. 37)?
- learns Nehemiah, the cupbearer of King Artaxerxes in December 445 BCE guests from Jerusalem (Nehemiah 1: 3)? What is his reaction (vs. 4)? Request that he to God (vs. 11)? How did his prayer was answered four months later (Nehemiah 2: 1-8)? What is his reaction when he first arrived in Jerusalem (vs. 11), then what does it (vs. 12 to 16)? Nehemiah how he motivates people to rebuild the walls of the city (vs. 17 to 20)? How important is God's? Before and during mobilization (vs. 10, 19) Nehemiah has already faced opposition.
- What characterizes the fall of the great Balylone (Rev. 18)? Who complain about its destruction (vs. 9, 15, 17)? Who rejoice, why (vs. 20, cf. 17: 6, 6: 10)? The city of Babylon is guilty of many persecutions of Christians. Many have identified with Rome, the capital of the Roman Empire or the Roman Catholic Church.

Many are involved in Buddhism or New Age. The Luxembourg were difficult to leave their Catholic culture even when they no longer believe. Many have never clearly heard the gospel of grace.
