    The Leader And Opposition Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Feb 20, 2015
     | 6,415 views

    Despite opposition Nehemiah keeps them building. He organises the work to go on. We too experience opposition but can trust God to help us to persevere.

    Sermon by Rev George Hemmings Sometimes you read these stories from the Old Testament and they seem so remote, so removed from our modern world that you wonder whether they can have any relevance for us. I mean, as George pointed out last week, we wouldn’t even think of getting out and ...read more

    Countering The Critics Series

     | 8,731 views

    Whenever you attempt to do anything great for the glory of God, expect opposition. So when it comes, pray, proceed with the work, and protect yourself as much as possible.

    This last fall (September 19, 2014) when Apple introduced its iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, a group of workers from Teardown.com lined up at 5 a.m. at various stores in Austin to buy the devises. Then they returned to the company's offices, where engineers began disassembling the new products. One of the ...read more

    This is the 5th sermon in the series "Rebuilding". When you are rebuilding, there will be struggles.

    Series: Rebuilding [#5] ENDURING THE STRUGGLES OF REBUILDING Nehemiah 4:1-23 Introduction: I heard an old preacher say, “The Bible tells us to love our neighbors and to love our enemies, probably because they are generally the same people.” In the case of the Jews rebuilding the ...read more

    Nehemiah demonstrates how to deal with discouragement in our walk with Jesus.

    In general, I really enjoy doing projects around our house – especially those projects that give a sense of accomplishment once they are completed. Over the years Mary and I have taken on some pretty big projects. We’ve done significant landscaping work on at least 4 different houses ...read more

    Working With The Lord's Help Series

    Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 15, 2013

    It should never surprise us when we do the Lord's work and people react with anger, ridicule, and rejection. Nehemiah gives us a great example of how we need to respond when the enemies of God oppose His work.

    In this lesson, I would like to look at the leadership of Nehemiah through the hardship and opposition that the people went through. They had opposition from outside and discouragement from inside, yet they got the job done. It should never surprise us when we do the Lord's work and people react ...read more

    Double Down To Defeat Discouragement

    Contributed by Charles Mims on Sep 22, 2012
     | 4,820 views

    We have the world figured out, the wind is at our back, and something goes wrong that deflates us. It's an age old problem, with an age old solution. We need to double down on God, and defeat that demon of discouragement.

    Doubling Down against Discouragement September 21, 2012 Nehemiah 4:1-23 (Background Passage) Nehemiah 4:10-14 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB) 10 In Judah, it was said: The strength of the laborer fails, since there is so much rubble.

    Close The Gaps - Circle The Wagons

    Contributed by Val Black on Oct 21, 2019
     | 7,043 views

    God's work never goes forward without opposition from the enemy. In fact, opposition is almost always caused by success and not failure. In building the walls of Jerusalem, Nehemiah faced much opposition but he knew what to do and now we can know also.

    Nehemiah 4:7-23 (NLT) “But when Sanballat and Tobiah and the Arabs, Ammonites, and Ashdodites heard that the work was going ahead and that the gaps in the wall of Jerusalem were being repaired, they were furious. 8  They all made plans to come and fight against Jerusalem and throw us into ...read more

    Nehemiah's Prayers Series

     | 24,315 views

    Nehemiah's contemporary, Ezra, had taken some of the exiles back to their homeland and rebuilt the temple. But the walls had been broken down and the gates had been burned. This is where Nehemiah comes in. Let's see how prayer factors into this endeavor.

    NEHEMIAH’S PRAYERS In 586 b.c. Jerusalem was destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar. He captured the Jews and exiled them to Babylon. Nehemiah’s time is 141 years later in 445 b.c., when the Persians ruled the land. Nehemiah's contemporary, Ezra, had taken some of the exiles back to their homeland and ...read more

    As followers of Jesus we MUST stand firm in the struggle against evil just as Nehemiah did in his work of rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem.

    Matthew 7:24-27 (ESV) 24 “Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. 26 And ...read more

    There will always be resistance to the work of God, and ridicule and violence are the weapons of the enemy (esp. to the Gospel). Being prepared for the attack is our calling, using the weapons of prayer and scripture.

    Introduction - Nehemiah is a great study of leadership; also shows obedience to God - Remember we saw Nehemiah’s assessing of the project before him, and, -- He also revealed the mission God had given him to his team -- We also noted that the job would be tough … and there would be ...read more

    The Power Of Purpose Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 5, 2021
    based on 3 ratings
     | 8,976 views

    Attaining the church's purpose is about "keeping the main thing the main thing." People must not only "know" the core values, but they must also "hear" them continually restated so they can envision what they're working towards.

    Proverbs states, “Where there is no vision, the people perish” (Proverbs 29:18 KJV). Bill Hybels, in his book Courageous Leadership, tells us, “When a leader is casting a vision publicly the goal is to help people know, understand, and remember the ‘main thing’.”(1) Purpose is all about keeping ...read more
