God Is Faithful to His Promise
(Prayer Walk thro Ezra 1-10)
Backgrounder: After 70 years
of exile, God Fulfils His Promise
to return His people to their
homeland. Under His direction,
King Cyrus of Persia now rules
Babylonia, and the Jews are free
to go home. The first group of
returnees rebuild the temple in
Jerusalem (E1-6). 58 years later,
Ezra leads a second group back to
Jerusalem to rebuild the spiritual
character of the people (E7-10).
Dear Lord, thank You for the book
of Ezra, showing God’s faithfulness
and the way You kept Your promise
to restore Your people to their land.

Help us Submit wholly to U. Amen
