Bobbie Frere | Nehemiah 9:38 | Nehemiah 10:28-39
‘The rest of the people - priests, Levites, gatekeepers, musicians, temple servants and all who separated themselves from the neighbouring peoples for the sake of the Law of God, together with their wives and all their sons and daughters who are able to understand - all these now join their fellow Israelites the nobles, and bind themselves with a curse and an oath to follow the Law of God given through Moses the servant of God and to obey carefully all the commands, regulations and decrees of the Lord our Lord.’
It had taken the people a long time to get to the point where they could make this full and open commitment. Having recently returned from exile, they promised to observe the Law which marked them out as the people of God. As Bobbie explains, an essential step was to truly appreciate the goodness and faithfulness of God. Yet: human failure is never far away. Bobbie encourages us to remember what God has done for us but also to trust in his power rather than our own as we seek to follow him.
The recording begins with the reading from Sarah Trinder.
