Nehemiah 4:1-20 is an exciting narrative full of action and danger as Nehemiah and the people of Jerusalem rebuild the walls of Jerusalem. It's also a practical section of text for us in the 21st century. What emerges from the text is a Godly approach to dealing with adversity and opposition because of our faith. As Nehemiah faces adversity and opposition, we see him take action and lead. He calls the people to pray, rally together, and remember that God is with them!
