When ridicule threatens to stop your work for God, how do you keep building?

In this episode, we dive deep into Nehemiah 4, where opposition escalates from mockery to military threats, yet the wall keeps rising. We'll explore how Nehemiah's leadership demonstrates the biblical pattern of "pray as if it depends on God, prepare as if it depends on you."

Key lessons in this episode:

  • Why ridicule is actually evidence you're building something spiritually significant.
  • The "flesh versus faith" framework for responding when attacked.
  • How to build a wall of faith that protects your heart from opposition.

Opposition is inevitable when you're doing Kingdom work, but Nehemiah 4 gives us a masterclass in victory through prayer, preparation, and persistent faith. Whether you're facing mockery for your beliefs, threats to your calling, or discouragement in your spiritual journey, this chapter offers practical wisdom for building through adversity.
