This powerful message from Nehemiah 8 confronts us with a challenging question: Are we truly listening when God speaks? We discover a remarkable scene where God's people, after 140 years of broken walls and scattered worship, finally gather as one to hear the Law of Moses read from morning until midday. What's striking isn't the length of the reading, but the people's response—they stood in honor, wept in conviction, and ultimately rejoiced in restoration.
