Listen to the latest 60 second episode of Integrity Moments with Rick Boxx
Integrity Moments is a 60 second workday devotional that provides business leaders with helpful insight into what the Bible says about our work and how we can fully integrate our faith into our vocational calling.

In Nehemiah 8, Ezra read from the Word of God for half the day, while Levites clarified what the words meant. I’ve been to church frequently, but I can never recall a time when the whole congregation begins weeping. But they did that day.

Nehemiah 8:9 says, “Then Nehemiah the governor, Ezra the priest and teacher of the Law, and the Levites who were instructing the people said to them all, “This day is holy to the Lord your God. Do not mourn or weep.” For all the people had been weeping as they listened to the words of the Law.”

Just prior to this, God co-labored with Nehemiah’s team in a way that connected their faith to their work, resulting in repentance and revival. Never underestimate God’s Word.
