Access Granted

Nehemiah recognized that he had some things working in his favor that could open the doors needed for the Jews and Judah’s recovery. He had a relationship with God and he had presidents before the King because of his former position as an cupbearer. Nevertheless, his greater influence was God. He needed favor. The first order of the day was for Nehemiah to humble himself before the face of God and then approach the King with confidence knowing that he had been Granted Access.
