TO WORK Now it came about that when Sanballat heard that we were rebuilding the wall, he became furious and very angry and mocked the Jews. He spoke in the presence of his brothers and the wealthy men of Samaria and said, "What are these feeble Jews doing ? Are they going to
restore it for themselves? Can they offer sacrifices ? Can they finish in a day ?
TO WORK
Can they revive the stones from the dusty rubble even the burned ones?” Now Tobiah
the Ammonite was near him and he said, "Even what they are building -‐ if a fox should jump on it, he would break their stone wall down !”
-‐Nehemiah 4:1-‐3 (NASB)
TO WORK
Hear, O our God, how we are despised! Return their reproach on their own heads and give them up for plunder in a land of capOvity.
-‐Nehemiah 4:4 (NASB)

Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind, for he who has suffered in the flesh
has ceased from sin… -‐I Peter 4:1 (NKJ)
