1:5-11 Nehemiah’s prayer includes praise (1:5), confession (1:6-7), remembrance of God’s promises (1:8-9), and petition (1:10-11). Nehemiah recognized that Israel’s current situation was not a failure of God’s covenant of unfailing love. Israel’s persistent sin had brought about the punishments entailed in the covenant.
