Nehemiah chapter 6, verses 15 and 16,

so the wall was finished on the 25th day of the month illol

in 52 days. And when all our enemies heard of it,

all the nations around us were afraid and fell greatly in their own esteem

for they perceived that this work had been accomplished

with the help of our God.

Oh, what a great summary. So the wall was finished

after all this work on the wall and all this

opposition from inside and outside the wall was finished

and all these people who had opposed the work

when they heard of it. All our enemies heard of it.

All the nations around us were afraid and they fell greatly in their own

esteem for they perceived. Watch this. They perceived that this work

had been accomplished with the help of our God. They knew

that this work was accomplished not because

these Jews building the wall were amazing

wall workers and were astute at this or that.

They knew this had only happened because

God had helped them. Oh, don't you want to live your life that way?

So people see your life and they think,

wow, that's that's only possible because God is with them.
