Bible Text: Nehemiah 1:11 | Preacher: Scott Roe | Series: Your Best Will Always Make Us Better

Have you ever had someone say something to you and it just makes you feel lousy?  Or have you ever had someone say something to you that makes you feel better, stronger or happier?  It’s amazing the power that there is in words.  Words can be used to build us up, and they can also be used to tear us down.

The broken down wall of Jerusalem was in a sorry state – much like the hearts of the Jewish people.  Nehemiah had a dream to rebuild the wall, but he knew that the place he had to start was with the hearts of the people.  Just as in rebuilding a wall requires using the right tools, so too with rebuilding a heart requires that we use the right words.
