Real Men Do Cry

Book excerpt: Real Men Do Cry captures the wisdom of Nehemiah for the twenty- first century. Learn how God intervened to restore a remnant of his people in Israel in the fifth century BC, a time when the nations existence had reached a desperation point. Gods ways have not changed. He still acts on behalf of those he is calling to follow him. As an absolute sovereign, he expects complete obedience to his will. See how God overruled the dominant powers of that time to fulfill his purpose in the world. This practice has not changed. God is still King; however many circumstances and the boasts of the ungodly may seem to mask that fact. Understand the true basis for prayer as Gods people in any age relate to their true King and persist in their obedience to him.
