GOD HELPS ME DO BIG THINGS (4)

Memory Verse : “I know that God helps me.” Psalm 54:4, NIrV

We can do big things when we work together.

Nehemiah Asks for Help • Nehemiah 1–4, 6:1, 15

Nehemiah hears that the wall around his home of Jerusalem is broken. He cries and fasts and prays for days. The king whom Nehemiah works for notices that Nehemiah is sad and asks him what’s wrong. Nehemiah tells the king about his home. With the king’s blessing, Nehemiah heads to Jerusalem to see what he can do. When he gets there, the job is SO BIG that he asks people for help. Soon the city wall is repaired and Nehemiah and the people learn that God helps them do big things when they work together.

2. Who does God send to help Nehemiah?

“God sends His people to help Nehemiah repair the wall of Jerusalem.”

3. Who can you ask God for help when you can’t do certain tasks?

Sometimes doing certain things like learning how to read or play a musical instrument can be very difficult. But God knows that you need help in doing difficult things. God gives us teachers who can help us read or write better. He can also give us a good music teacher to teach us how to play a musical instrument better. God can also give us an older person to help us fix a broken toy. God can help us do things that are difficult to do.
