Like Nehemiah, you’re “doing a great work”
And can’t afford to be distracted
Or delayed
Or detoured
By the enemy’s cheap diversion tactics.When Sanballat and Geshem
Tried the trick of pulling Nehemiah off the wall
By offering a meeting at Ono,
Nehemiah said, “Oh, no” to the antics:
“I am doing a great work and
I cannot come down.” (Neh. 6:3)
I bless your spiritual eyes to see
Your life in that same light.
Whatever God has given you to do
In this season is a “great work.”
Raising a child? It’s a “great work.”
Loving a neighbor? It’s a “great work.”
Getting an education? It’s a “great work.”
Starting a ministry? It’s a “great work.”
When Hell’s deceptive minions invite
You off your wall with an alluring distraction,
May you find Nehemiah’s words handy:
“I’m doing a great work and cannot come down.” |
