Neh 9:25
“They captured fortified cities and a fertile land.
They took possession of houses full of every good thing,
Hewn cisterns, vineyards, olive groves,
Fruit trees in abundance.
So they ate, were filled and grew fat,
And reveled in Your great goodness.

Look at all the Lord did for them…
They captured fortified cities.
They captured fertile land.
They took possession of houses…full of every good thing…
- Hewn cisterns
- Vineyards
- Olive groves
- Fruit trees

None of which they “earned”.
God granted.
They possessed.

What was their response?

They ate…good.
They were filled…good.
They grew fat…uh…uh oh…
They reveled in God's great goodness…

God wants us to live in His goodness.

The next verse begins with “but”…as we will see.
