What if where you are isn’t an accident? What if God has placed you, not punished you? In this powerful message from the Radical Trust series, we explore how God uses providence, prayer, and proximity to position us for purpose—just like He did with Nehemiah. 💡 Big Idea: Radical trust means believing that where God has you right now isn’t random—it’s intentional.

(Nehemiah 1:1–2, 11) ✅ Prayer in the Pain — Before Nehemiah moved, he wept and prayed. (Nehemiah 1:4–11, Philippians 4:6-7) ✅ Purpose in the Proximity — The king said yes because Nehemiah was ready. (Nehemiah 2:1–9, Colossians 4:5-6) If you’re feeling stuck, overlooked, or questioning your place—this message will renew your perspective and challenge your faith. 🎯 Don’t just survive this season—trust that it’s preparing you for what’s next.
