OT16 Nehemiah 03-04

Study with Pastor Kelvin

Read: NEHEMIAH 3-4

Summary:
Nehemiah organizes work on the wall, assigning sections to families, neighborhoods, and even tradesmen. This strategy fixes responsibility for each part of the task. It also creates work teams out of  existing groups who have learned to work cooperatively. And it encourages competition, between teams. But as progress is made on the walls, Sanballat becomes  incensed. He and Tobiah step up their rumor and ridicule campaign. Nehemiah simply prays and keeps the people working. When ridicule fails to halt the rebuilding, the enemies plot an armed attack. Then the Jews hear Nehemiah reassure his fearful workers. He also organizes a defense, Half his workers are placed on guard while the other half work, the Jews intensify rather than abandon their building efforts.

Prayer Point:
In the name of Jesus Christ as I pray, O' Lord deliver me from distractions.
