How To Turn Your Problems Into Possibilities
By Adrian Rogers
Nehemiah 2:20
Be finding please the book of Nehemiah. And we're beginning now a series through this book, I want us to notice what I consider to be the verse that sets the tone for the book in Nehemiah chapter two, and verse twenty.

If you want to understand it and if you want to make the Bible come alive to you, ask these three questions. Number one, what did it mean then? You study it in it's historical setting, what did it mean then? Number two, what does it mean now? Because you see, you have to take it from yesterday and put it into today. What does it mean now?
