Faith and Works

Nehemiah 4:9,14, 20~

(Nehemiah, and the rebuilding of the wall in Jerusalem
while their enemies tried to stop them.)

An excellent way faith and works should be practiced~
"BUT WE PRAYED TO GOD~~~AND WE SET UP
A GUARD DAY AND NIGHT."
~and the verses following tell how they worked, defended themselves,
but also relied on God.
"DO NOT BE AFRAID OF THEM,
REMEMBER THE LORD WHO IS GREAT AND AWESOME,
OUR GOD WILL FIGHT FOR US."
There are also lessons here on spiritual warfare.
