Arise & Build ~ The Enemy is Always Around

Nehemiah 2

Inspired thots

Nehemiah was given permission by king Artaxerxes to return to Jerusalem to rebuild the temple of God. He asked the king for the needy after consulting God on what was required. The 3 generations of the Persian kings were godly because there was godly counsel.

Nehemiah went about his task of rebuilding quietly but the enemy caught wind of it. Sanballat and Tobiah were displeased and tried to stir up problems for Nehemiah. How important to be secure in God as the enemy is always around to taunt us and bring us down. But if one ARISE & BUILD on God, the foundation is secure even in enemy territory.

How much more today when the time of Christ's return is soon! God's people needs to arise and rebuild their lives on God.
