SINGING ON THE WALL

SINGING ON THE WALL
Nehemiah 9-12
Jerry Vines
Three hours they read from the Word of God. As result of what
they read in the Word of God for three hours the children of God

of their fathers.
If you had gone to Jerusalem at this particular time you would
have witnessed a very unusual scene. You would have heard a loud
sobbing on the part of the people. You would have seen people who had

You would see people who would put earth on the their bodies and thrown
earth up in the air. You would have seen people who were dressed in

Jerusalem for the rebuilding of the walls around the city. The building
of the walls was not intended as an end to itself. The purpose of the
rebuilding of the walls was to bring the children of Israel back to
Jerusalem, but also to bring them back to God. You must never confuse
the means with the end. You must never allow the means to become the
end. Same thing is true in the building of our auditorium. We have
a building that we are building but that building is not an end to
itself. It is a means to an end. The end is to win people to the Lord
Jesus and to help those who are saved grow and mature in their Ch ...
