The people who were working with Nehemiah were confident under his leadership, with “a mind to work,” ready for to accomplish God’s Plan. What a great reminder that our attitude is important and that, with our confidence in Christ to work in us and through us, we can overcome obstacles for His glory.
What have you learned about opposition this week?
Does it encourage you to understand that there will always be opposition to the work of God?
How will you prepare yourself to be ready and not distracted by the taunts of our enemy?
Be ready! Embrace the bold plans that God will place in front of us to win our community to Christ, to strengthen disciples in our walk with Him, and to take the Gospel to the ends of the earth!
As we anticipate tomorrow’s sermon, reflect now on how opposition can be used by God to teach us to trust and develop His character within us.
