The Nehemiah Prayers: part 1

The Nehemiah Prayers

Nehemiah's Prayers is a Nehemiah Bible study which examines the prayers that he prayed so that we can pray his prayers when we are in similar situations. Praying these Nehemiah Prayers will add more power to our prayers since the Word of God is the sword of the spirit. (Ephesians 6:17)

Nehemiah's Prayer for Confession
O Lord God of heaven, You are the great and awesome God Who keeps Your covenant and mercy with those who love You and follow Your commandments, I ask you to listen to the prayer that I pray before You today.

I confess the sins that my ancestors and myself have sinned against you. We have behaved corruptly and not kept the commandments that you gave us. 

Heavenly Father I ask you to forgive us and remember Your Word which says that if we return to You and keep your commandments, you will gather us even if we have been scattered. (Nehemiah 1:5-9) 

Tip
This is a great prayer to pray when you need God to restore the things you have lost because of the sins you and your people have committed.  

It is also a great prayer to pray when you need God's help like Nehemiah did for The Lord's hand is not shortened so that it cannot save and His ear is not heavy that it cannot hear. But your sins have separated you from God and hidden his face from you so that He will not hear. (Isaiah 59:1-2)
