5 Lessons from the Book of Nehemiah - Tony Evans
Nehemiah led the third return of exiled Jews back to the land of Israel. As cupbearer to the king of Persia, he held an important administrative post in the government. When he received word that the people who had already returned to Jerusalem were in distress, he was greatly disturbed. But, he believed God’s promise that when his people repented and returned to him, he would restore their land. Based on God’s Word, Nehemiah began a program of what we today could call “community development” among God’s people. With the blessing and help of a pagan king, Nehemiah returned home to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem, the city of God. This demonstrates that even the secular world is subject to God when his people operate according to his kingdom promises and authority. Nehemiah also provides a study in great leadership. In a mere fifty-two days, Nehemiah led the people, amid opposition, to rebuild Jerusalem’s walls. He also called for the development of solid families, for the temple to be the center of life, for the people to live under the covenant promises of God, and for them to become a righteous and just community. The book of Nehemiah is about making wrong things right. ▶ Do you know Jesus as your Savior? https://tonyevans.org/know-jesus-christ/ ▶ Stream Sermons: https://tonyevans.org/podcast/ ▶▶ Free Sermon App: https://subsplash.com/tonyevans/app/ ▶▶ DONATE: https://give.tonyevans.org/the-alternative/donation ▶ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drtonyevans/ ▶ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drtonyevans/ ▶ Are you a preacher?

Prayer and Spiritual Warfare | Dr. Tony Evans - Igniting Kingdom Prayer Devotional #11
If you keep a spare tire in the back of your car, you’ll know that it’s only kept there for when something goes flat. Tony Evans says many Christians treat prayer like a spare tire—if nothing’s going flat in life, there’s no need for it. But the Bible says to pray at all times, and in this message, you’ll find that by doing so you’re preparing yourself for the inevitable occurrence of any spiritual warfare that may strike.

5 Lessons from the Book of Colossians | Tony Evans Book of the Bible #Shorts
Paul wrote Colossians from jail to deal with some heresies that were circulating among the churches—particularly one false teaching about the uniqueness and deity of Jesus Christ. Such teachings involved a blending of Jewish and Greek ideas with a smattering of Christian perspective that resulted in a dumbing down of the truth about Christ. Paul counters this with a striking argument for the deity of Jesus—“He is the image of the invisible God” (1:15) who was responsible for creation and is the head of the church. He is King over all of His kingdom. Paul calls for the rejection of any so-called knowledge, religious or secular, that diminishes the uniqueness of Christ. But he didn’t want believers’ stance on the topic to be merely theoretical. He, therefore, calls the Colossian believers to reflect Christ’s character in every area of their lives, to put the truth into practice. The key to doing this is to submit to Jesus as Lord, both because he is God and because He is the final word of authority in the life of every believer. In the book of Colossians, Paul exalts Christ and calls the church to display his glory and truth by the way we live for His kingdom. 5 Lessons from the Book of Colossians | Tony Evans Book of the Bible #Shorts #Colossians #TonyEvans #Bible ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ▶ Do you know Jesus as your Savior? https://tonyevans.org/know-jesus-christ/ ▶ Stream Sermons: https://tonyevans.org/podcast/ ▶▶ Free Sermon App: https://subsplash.com/tonyevans/app/ ▶▶ DONATE: https://give.tonyevans.org/the-alternative/donation ▶ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drtonyevans/ ▶ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drtonyevans/ ▶ Are you a preacher?

5 Lessons from the Book of Ezra | Tony Evans Book of the Bible #Shorts
The book of Ezra is about spiritual restoration. It deals with the restoration of the temple by Israel’s people after their return from Babylonian captivity as a result of their persistent disobedience and idolatry. God had made a kingdom promise to them that if they would return to him, he would bring them back to their land. The priest Ezra led the second group of exiles back to Israel. He focused on reestablishing the temple and its sacrificial system, making it clear that the worship of God’s people would only be effective if they dedicated themselves to obeying God’s law. He challenged them that if they would get serious with the Lord, they would experience his covenantal blessings. But, this required Israel to stop compromising with God’s enemies and to turn from idolatry. Israel needed to be people separated to God to experience his blessings and be restored to his kingdom promises. The message of Ezra is that when we depart from God, we lose our experience of him. But, when we return to him, he will restore us to fellowship with him. 5 Lessons from the Book of Ezra | Tony Evans Book of the Bible #Shorts #Exra #TonyEvans #Bible ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ▶ Do you know Jesus as your Savior? https://tonyevans.org/know-jesus-christ/ ▶ Stream Sermons: https://tonyevans.org/podcast/ ▶▶ Free Sermon App: https://subsplash.com/tonyevans/app/ ▶▶ DONATE: https://give.tonyevans.org/the-alternative/donation ▶ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drtonyevans/ ▶ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drtonyevans/ ▶ Are you a preacher?
