When Nehemiah heard about the threat to his native city, he remembered his heritage and in spite of his comfortable life as a successful politician in Persia, he began fasting and praying and asking for God\'s help to rebuild Jerusalem.

Nehemiah’s Prayer
1
The words of Nehemiah son of Hakaliah: In the month of
Kislev in the twentieth year, while I was in the citadel of Susa, 2
Hanani, one of my brothers, came from Judah with some other
men, and I questioned them about the Jewish remnant that had
survived the exile, and also about Jerusalem.
3
They said to me, “Those who survived the exile and are back in
the province are in great trouble and disgrace. The wall of
Jerusalem is broken down, and its gates have been burned with
fire.”
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.
NEHEMIAH 1:1-10

3. • We Remember Who We Are (And
WHO we belong to)
• In spite of position (v.10, cupbearer,
or 2nd
in command, to the king), in
spite of prosperity, in spite of power,
Nehemiah did not forget who he
was and where he had come from
