Nehemiah received the difficult news that his people were in a desperate situation. He turned to his only hope, the Lord. He realized his nation had not been faithful to the Lord and their sin led them to this situation. In desperation he sought the Lord through prayer and fasting. In his prayer he began to seek the forgiveness for his and his nation’s sins. The Lord was faithful, yet His people were unfaithful and found themselves in need of His forgiveness and rescue.
