Hello steemit user
WHY SHOULD YOU FEEL DISCOURAGED?
To who or what do we gravitate when we are pressured by life or by contrary circumstances? Each person over the years mayhave developed unbelievable coping mechanisms; some take long walks, others turn to family, a few attempt to bury the issues by going out or pretending their issues no longer exists. But Nehemiah chose a path that we must emulate, especially if we are not already doing that.
WITH HIS RIGHT HAND WILL HE UPHOLD YOU
Sanballat the Horonite, and Tobiah the servant, the Ammonite, and Geshem the Arabian, were bent on preventing Nehemiah and his crew from rebuilding the temple of God. They employed divisive means to stop the children of Israel. However, Nehemiah was not in the least bit discouraged. He would not be stopped. Why? I'll show us why.
BECAUSE THE LORD IS YOUR SHEPHERD
Neh 2:20 "Then answered I them, and said unto them, The God of heaven, he will prosper us; therefore we his servants will arise and build: but ye have no portion, nor right, nor memorial, in Jerusalem." Nehemiah was focused on the Lord. He said boldly that the God of heaven would prosper them. He was certain the Lord would prosper his work, he entertained no assumptions, and was emphatic. Obviously such a boldness does not come from a casual acquaintance but through intimate knowledge. This man knew his God.
THEREFORE YOU ARE VICTORIOUS!
Are we so confident in the Lord? Can we boldly say the Lord will prosper our work in the face of staggering opposition? Are we settled and grounded in God?
