Jerusalem was surrounded by enemies 2. Nehemiah exhorted the people to depend on the Lord, reminding them of His great and awesome works on their behalf. He challenged the workers to fight for their families. We battle against evil spiritual forces and deceptive schemes of the devil. God provides our armor.
Prayer is vital at all times, for all occasions.
We should support other believers with our prayers when they are under satanic attack or seeking to spread the gospel. Jesus used Scripture from Deuteronomy to defeat Satan. Recall a time when you were discouraged. Review Deuteronomy 20.3-4 and Hebrews 13.5. Although we are aware of family or church problems, we sometimes get too busy to take an honest look at them.
