Speaker: Pastor Andy Searles

Scripture Focus: Nehemiah 4:1-10 & Nehemiah 6:1-14

Sermon notes are as follows:

Let Mockery Motivate You

• If we are doing God’s work and people are getting angry at us, their offense is ultimately against God. We must let God defend us.

• When we feel belittled, we must allow God to be bigger within us.

Let Manipulation Strengthen You

• Don’t listen to the whispers of lies; invite truth to speak louder!

• Work on strengthening your character, not your reputation, because your reputation always reflects your character.

Let Intimidation Embolden You

• Always stand, never run. One who understands all that Christ has done for them and has lost their life in Christ should always stand and never run.

• Don’t let pathetic words become prophetic words in your life!
