2023 Devotions Week 42

ENEMIES WITHIN AND WITHOUTNehemiah 5 and 6 “When I heard their outcry and these charges, I was very angry.” Sometimes the most discouraging truth is when you discover that it is your own people that are causing the problems. “As far as possible, we have bought back our fellow Jews who were sold to the …

OBSTACLESNehemiah 3 and 4 “So we rebuilt the wall till all of it reached half its height, for the people worked with all their heart.” Chapter 3 is a heartening passage.

2023 Devotions Week 38

INTO THE LIGHTJohn 3:16-21 “Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil.
