Nehemiah Devotional - April 28

A Heart That Breaks

Read: Nehemiah 1

Key Verse: Nehemiah 1:4 – “When I heard these things, I sat down and wept. For some days, I mourned and fasted and prayed before the God of heaven.”

Inductive Questions:
• What does Nehemiah’s reaction to Jerusalem’s condition reveal about his heart for God’s people?
• How do you typically respond when you see brokenness in the world around you?
• What burden has God placed on your heart that calls for prayer and action?

Prayer:
Lord, break my heart for what breaks Yours. Help me not to turn a blind eye to the needs around me, but to bring them to You in prayer. Give me the courage to act according to Your will. I pray humbly in Jesus’ name, Amen.
