Keeping An Eye Out

Keeping An Eye Out

Neh 7:1-4

1. Always keep watch vs 1

The number one rule in boxing, Always keep your guard up

It doesn't matter if the walls are up, the enemy is still on the prowl

2. All should keep watch 3b

Luke 12:47 42 And the Lord said, Who then is that faithful and wise

steward, whom [his] lord shall make ruler over his household,

to give [them their] portion of meat in due season? 43 Blessed

[is] that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so

doing. 44 Of a truth I say unto you, that he will make him ruler

over all that he hath. 45 But and if that servant say in his heart,

My lord delayeth his coming; and shall begin to beat the

menservants and maidens, and to eat and drink, and to be

drunken; 46 The lord of that servant will come in a day when

he looketh not for [him], and at an hour when he is not aware,

and will cut him in sunder, and will appoint him his portion

with the unbelievers.3 47 And that servant, which knew his

lord's will, and prepared not [himself], neither did according

to his will, shall be beaten with many [stripes]. 48 But he that

knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be

beaten with few [stripes]. For unto whomsoever much is given

of him shall be much required: and to whom men have

committed much, of him they will ask the more.

Heb 13:17 Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves:

for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account,

that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that [is]

unprofitable for you.
