Nehemiah 6
Nehemiah 6 recounts the great personal attacks which Nehemiah underwent. The lengths to which our adversary will go to destroy or, at least, hinder the work of God is quite remarkable. The enemy of the Lord's worker is not just lies, rumors, and personal attacks. Satan is too cunning to rely solely on this methodology. He will also astutely use the tyranny of the urgent. As ministers of the Gospel, it will be very easy to fill our plates with plenty of good things, while at the same time neglecting the best thing......sharing the Good News. Nehemiah gave us a great example in that he never took his eyes off his ultimate calling. He did not allow the myriad of other important things he could have been doing with his time to prevent him from doing the work to which he was called. We must be just a vigilant with our time.
