The Need is Noticed - Nehemiah 1:1-3
Pages 25 – 52
Nehemiah 1
Ch 4 - 5
The need is noticed - It seems that the Lord gives notice to certain individuals of a specific need.
This is the first step towards the Lord giving you a ministry.
This is the time to get involved in God’s plan.
Many stay on the sideline, but God is looking for those whom He can send.
God is looking for a servant.
Qualifications for servants - 1 Timothy 3:1-13
Acts Qualifications of Servants -
February 26
Some say instead, there is a need and someone should take care of this.
If you notice the need, just take care of it.
There is a fear in stepping out because it is outside of our comfort zone.
God can do amazing things through one person, its starts with availability.
Be available to God use.
The Heart is Heavy about the Need -
Pages 53 – 78
The Lord tends to move upon a persons heart and a burden for the ministry begins on the person’s heart.
This is specifically true when a person is called into the ministry.
The movement on the heart is so great that the only thing that can be done is to bring it to the Lord.
The Power is in Prayer -
The heavy heart turns to a time of prayer
This outpouring of the heart to God is a natural progression.
With any need that is heavy on our heart, we are to seek God.
Often times, fasting and prayer is required.
Keys to Prayer
Story of Pastor Piloting
Climb - Go as high as you can, quick as you can.
Climb and Begin to pour out your heart to God.
Communicate - Tell someone where you are
Confess - Tell them if you are lost
Claiming What’s there - See landmarks
Conform - To do what he says, he has a view of where you are at
Be a person of prayer, its as natural as breathing.
Look through the rubble of this life, and see God
Look through the situations and see God
Get to the point that the things in this life does not bother you
The Preparation of the Person
Consistent time in prayer: “Pray day and Night”
2. Recognition of Sin - Personal Holiness “Both I and my father’s family have sinned”
1 Peter 1:15-16
Nehemiah
3. Go to the Word of God: “Remember what you commanded your servant Moses”
From Affliction to Action -
Ch 6 - 7
When the heart is burdened and it has been brought before the Lord, if the burden remains, there must be actions driven by faith in our God to begin the work.
He had prayed for 4 months.
The ministry at CC was in preparation for almost 5 years before God began this work
One His hand was going to be put to the plow, the wall was going to go up very quickly.
His answers were able to go quickly to the king since He had already brought the matter to the Lord.
He was able to seemingly spring to action because his case had already been brought to the Lord

Counting the Cost of the Work -
A healthy review of the task at hand is needed.
The mind is not disconnected from the process of faith.
Although the ministry takes faith to take action, it doesn’t discount that we need to understand and review the task that we are undertaking.
He was able to be covert until the moment of action.
There is Wisdom in counting the cost before making it known to everyone.
Luke 14:28-
The Vision for CCC has come slowly as the walls have taken some time to investigate.
Pages 79 – 106
The Seed of Success -
Everyone was encouraged to go to work because He had a complete vision.
The Vision for CCC has come slowly as the walls have taken some time to investigate.
Ch 8 - 9
The vision of what to do needs to be received and revealed from the Lord.
March 12
The Danger of Discouragement -
immediately upon the launch of the work of the Lord, there is opposition.
There will always be the attack of the enemy when there is a work of God.
Pages 107 – 134
If you are not under attack by the enemy, question whether you are doing the work for the Lord.
Ch 10 - 11
