I remember the day I heard this sermon. Not the date but the day. I know where I was when I first heard Nehemiah 2:20.
“…The God of heaven, He will prosper us; therefore we his servants will arise and build…” KJV Nehemiah 2:20
It’s been about ten years since I heard Adrian Rogers preach on this bit of scripture. Since then I have read The Book of Nehemiah twice and have referred to this “Arise and Build” many times. It’s like a battle cry. The Lord is on my side. He’s already blessed me so I ought to do the work.
Here is Adrian Rogers’ sermon that changed my life, part 1:

May the Lord call you and bless you.
