Work & Watch!
In Nehemiah 4:17 and 18 it says, “Everyone with one of his hands worked in the work, and with the other held his weapon. Everyone had his sword girded by his side and so built.” This hit me hard when I read it. I realized that when we get busy working for the kingdom, fulfilling our purpose in life, we tend to slip and forget that the enemy is still watching us, thinking of ways to interfere with our work. We cannot let our guards down for a minute. While we do God’s will, we still need to be praying, worshiping God, warfaring and fighting off everything and everyone that comes against us. We must continue to be watchful, vigilant and ready to fight at all times! So keeping working but be watchful!
