  10.

Both my father's house and I have sinned. HOW DID NEHEMIAH ADDRESS THE GOD OF HEAVEN? HOW LONG WAS NEHEMIAH PRAYING? WHO WAS HE PRAYING FOR? WHAT WAS HE CONFESSING?

  13. READ: NEHEMIAH 1:7-9 7 "We have acted very corruptly against You, and have not kept the commandments, the statutes, nor the ordinances which You commanded Your servant Moses. 8 "Remember, I pray, the word that You commanded Your servant Moses, saying, 'If you are unfaithful, I will scatter you among the nations, 9 ‘But if you return to Me, and keep My commandments and do them, though some of you were cast out to the farthest part of the heavens, yet I will gather them from there, and bring them to the place which I have chosen as a dwelling for My name.'
