Re:Verse passage – Nehemiah 10:28-30 (day six)
In Nehemiah’s day, Israel renewed their commitment to God’s law, which included their rhythms. They pledged to honor the Sabbath, observe sacred days, and trust God enough to pause their productivity. This wasn’t legalism, it was a rhythm of resistance against the pull of the surrounding culture.
We, too, live in a world that glorifies busyness and productivity. But repentance means more than avoiding sin; it means reordering our lives around the reign of King Jesus.
What rhythms shape your week? Is there space for rest, worship, and dependence on God? Or have our calendars been quietly discipled by the culture around us?
Renewal begins when God’s people not only believe differently, but live differently.
Let’s make room for rhythms that reflect Kingdom priorities.
