Daily Devotional: Defending the Wall
Nehemiah 4:1-23
When God calls us to rebuild, opposition is inevitable. In Nehemiah 4, we witness how the Israelites faced mockery, threats, and intimidation as they worked to restore Jerusalem’s walls. Their enemies, led by Sanballat and Tobiah, ridiculed their efforts and plotted to stop the work. But instead of giving in to fear, Nehemiah turned to prayer, strengthened the people’s resolve, and set up defenses to protect the work. With one hand on their tools and the other on their weapons, the builders pressed on, trusting in God’s protection.
This passage reminds us that spiritual opposition often accompanies God's assignments, but with prayer, perseverance, and faith, we can stand firm. Just as Nehemiah encouraged his people to fight for their families and their future, we too must remain steadfast in our calling, knowing that God fights for us. Stay equipped with the Word, stand guard in faith, and continue building what God has placed in your hands.
