Stay On Your Wall

“And I sent messengers unto them, saying, I am doing a great work, so that I cannot come down: why should the work cease, whilst I leave it, and come down to you?”Nehemiah 6:3

Sanballat sent for Nehemiah four times, and four times the answer was the same: I cannot come down. Brother, something has been sending for you too — an old habit, an old argument, an old version of you. It doesn't deserve a meeting. Your family, your assignment, and your God are on the wall with you.

This week's action: name the one thing that keeps calling you down off your wall — and tell a brother about it before Sunday. What gets named gets guarded.

Prior Engagements: The Five Habits of Faith

Five habits that keep a man on his wall when distraction comes calling.

  • I Focus — the great work outranks the invitation
  • II Discernment — reading Gashmu before you answer him
  • III Prayer — strengthen my hands, O God
  • IV Courage — should a man like me flee?
  • V Finishing — so the wall was finished
