Weeping for God's People

You’ve seen the bumper sticker “Pray for Our Nation.” But what are we praying for? When Nehemiah heard the report of the condition of Israel in his day, he prayed. His prayer was for the rebuilding of Israel, of course, but his prayer reflected a quality that many of us are lacking today. Nehemiah’s prayer came from his understanding of a covenant keeping God. In this message, Dr. Sproul looks at Nehemiah’s prayer to find insight for our situation today.
