3 Keys to Perseverance in God’s Work for the Glory of God
Nehemiah 6 – 3 Keys to Perseverance in God’s Work for God’s Glory 1) We must have a laser-focus on what God has called us to do. (Nehemiah 6:1-8) 2) Sometimes we need to pray less that God would change our situation, and pray more that God would change us in the situation.

For Those Who Fear (All of Us) – Psalm 23
We live in a society full of fear today. Yet the Lord offers us freedom from fear because He is our Shepherd. Do you know Him? Can you say, “The LORD is MY Shepherd,” not just, “The LORD is A Shepherd?” I will not fear because the Lord is my Shepherd (vv. 1-3) I will not fear because the Lord is my Savior (vv. 4-5a) I will not fear because the Lord is my Sovereign (vv. 5b-6)
