Fear-FREE focus

 

Proverbs 4:25-27

King James Version

25 Let thine eyes look right on, 

and let thine eyelids look straight before thee.

26 Ponder the path of thy feet, 

and let all thy ways be established.

27 Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: 

remove thy foot from evil.

When you are a child of GOD, a believer in JESUS, a faithful servant of CHRIST, and a student of the HOLY SPIRIT, you are focused.

You do not deviate, are not distracted, and thus, are not destroyed.

Much as CHRIST's enemy tries to attack you, every single time.

Just so you know, the devil has many devices.

But the born again has a mission, are powered by faith, and by our love for GOD.

Obedience to GOD's will is our DNA.

One great example of such focus is Nehemiah.

"Interestingly, he was cupbearer to Artaxerxes I.

Who happens to be the fifth king of kings to the Achaemenid Empire, 

from 465 to December 424 BC.

This empire was also called "The First Persian Empire".

It was founded by Cyrus the Great in 550 BC.

You mean, Israel and Persia were once friends?"

-- "City in RUINS"

He was tasked with rebuilding Jerusalem.

It was a formidable task, but GOD wanted it done.

Of course, Nehemiah's enemies were in a rage when he was securing the walls of the city.

They aimed to put every block to his thinking, and rebuilding.

Here's what they did, and how Nehemiah responded.

Nehemiah 6:1-2

King James Version

6 Now it came to pass when Sanballat, and Tobiah, 

and Geshem the Arabian, and the rest of our enemies, 

heard that I had builded the wall, 

and that there was no breach left therein; 

(though at that time I had not set up 

the doors upon the gates;)

2 That Sanballat and Geshem sent unto me, saying, 

Come, let us meet together 

in some one of the villages in the plain of Ono. 

But they thought to do me mischief.

Nehemiah's response:

Nehemiah 6:3

King James Version

3 And I sent messengers unto them, saying, 

I am doing a great work, 

so that I cannot come down: 

why should the work cease, whilst I leave it, 

and come down to you?

But his enemies wouldn't let up.

Nehemiah 6:4

King James Version

4 Yet they sent unto me four times after this sort;

and I answered them after the same manner.

Nehemiah 6:5-7

King James Version

5 Then sent Sanballat his servant unto me in like manner 

the fifth time with an open letter in his hand;

6 Wherein was written, 

It is reported among the heathen, and Gashmu saith it, 

that thou and the Jews think to rebel: 

for which cause thou buildest the wall, 

that thou mayest be their king, according to these words.

7 And thou hast also appointed prophets 

to preach of thee at Jerusalem, saying, 

There is a king in Judah: 

and now shall it be reported to the king 

according to these words. 

Come now therefore, 

and let us take counsel together.

Nehemiah's response:

Nehemiah 6:8-9

King James Version

8 Then I sent unto him, saying, 

There are no such things done as thou sayest, 

but thou feignest them out of thine own heart.

9 For they all made us afraid, saying, 

Their hands shall be weakened from the work, 

that it be not done. 

Now therefore, O God, strengthen my hands.

He was warned further.

Nehemiah 6:10

King James Version

10 Afterward I came unto the house of Shemaiah 

the son of Delaiah the son of Mehetabeel, 

who was shut up; and he said, 

Let us meet together in the house of God, 

within the temple, 

and let us shut the doors of the temple: 

for they will come to slay thee; 

yea, in the night will they come to slay thee.

Nehemiah's response:

Nehemiah 6:11

King James Version

11 And I said, 

Should such a man as I flee? 

and who is there, that, being as I am, 

would go into the temple to save his life? 

I will not go in.

His impression of the whole thing:

Nehemiah 6:12-13

King James Version

12 And, lo, I perceived that God had not sent him; 

but that he pronounced this prophecy against me: 

for Tobiah and Sanballat had hired him.

13 Therefore was he hired, that I should be afraid, 

and do so, and sin, and that they might have matter 

for an evil report, that they might reproach me.

His prayer:

Nehemiah 6:14

King James Version

14 My God, 

think thou upon Tobiah and Sanballat 

according to these their works, 

and on the prophetess Noadiah, 

and the rest of the prophets, 

that would have put me in fear.

The result of his prayer, and unbending focus:

Nehemiah 6:15-16

King James Version

15 So the wall was finished 

in the twenty and fifth day of the month Elul, 

in fifty and two days.

16 And it came to pass, 

that when all our enemies heard thereof, 

and all the heathen that were about us 

saw these things, 

they were much cast down in their own eyes: 

for they perceived that this work 

was wrought of our God.

The lesson that SPIRIT inspired me to give you from all these:

"FORTIFY your FORTRESSES 

through FAITH and FOCUS."

GOD put it upon my heart on 22 January 2024 to write about Nehemiah, and the rebuilding of Jerusalem.

Here are the series of articles His HOLY SPIRIT inspired me to write then:

City in RUINS

REBUILDING the GATES

BUILDERS and WARRIORS

52-day WONDER

JERUSALEM comes ALIVE

DEDICATING the city

Israel is going through the same situation today.

She is being attacked and bullied, on all fronts.

But she stays on the path.

She knows GOD is with her.

Let us, born again workers, watchmen, and warriors, be like Nehemiah.

Let us not be distracted by things of the world.

Let us not be fearful of what people can do to us.

Let us not be cowed, or bullied, into giving up our faith.

Let us remain focused on CHRIST JESUS alone.

Colossians 3:1-4

King James Version

3 If ye then be risen with Christ, 

seek those things which are above, 

where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

2 Set your affection on things above, 

not on things on the earth.

3 For ye are dead, and your life 

is hid with Christ in God.

4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, 

then shall ye also appear with him in glory.

SURE and STRONG

 

JESUS said:

Matthew 7:24-25

King James Version

24 Therefore whosoever heareth 

these sayings* of mine, and doeth them, 

I will liken him unto a wise man, 

which built his house upon a rock:

25 And the rain descended, 

and the floods came, 

and the winds blew, 

and beat upon that house; 

and it fell not: 

for it was founded upon a rock.

What makes us certain about life?

What makes us strong in this world?

The world is filled with tons of temptations.

And tons of traps, that aim to ensnare us all.

We all need to be born again, to have a robust heart.

SPIRIT, through Scripture, will guide us every moment.

We will know the things that matter.

Such as being aligned with GOD's will.

We will know the commands we need to obey.

That our life, and our family's life, can be secure.

Not through fame, or fortune, but through FAITH in GOD.

Unless we follow JESUS, we cannot survive this world.

We need the strength of His mind, that we may survive.

Satan will wear us out, every chance he can get.

Unless our foundation is rooted firmly in CHRIST, we will succumb.

A TRUE BORN AGAIN is steady.

Because of these things:

We LIVE by the BIBLE.

It is the NONNEGOTIABLE gospel.

It is NOT a gospel of accommodation.

We are FREE from ambivalence.

We live FREE of distraction.

We are CONFIDENT in CHRIST.

We are HAPPY with JESUS.

We have VICTORY through JESUS.

We are SOLDIERS of CHRIST.

We are ROCK steady.

We know GOD's PLAN of SALVATION.

We have PEACE through JESUS.

He is our CHIEF Corner Stone.

GOD is STEADY.

JESUS is CONSISTENT.

The ONLY thing that will REMAIN is GOD's WORD.

GOD's WORD stands forever.

As WATCHMEN, we are STEADY at our posts:

"We remain steady, at our posts.

Waiting for our Master's command.

That we may know what to do, where to be, how to act.

We rely on His EVERY command.

Thus, we wait, watch, warn, worship.

His will, ways, and wisdom are planted upon our hearts."

-- "The WARRIOR's protection"

Our pillar is CHRIST.

Our pillow is the WORD.

Our peace is JESUS.

Our homes are fortified with GOD's TRUTH.

Our souls are safe from sin.

Our hearts belong to GOD.

Our minds are fixed on JESUS.

We wear the FULL ARMOR of GOD.

We sleep good nights because of the LORD.

Confident, and grateful, in His LOVE.

We are His.

John 10:27-28

King James Version

27 My sheep hear my voice, 

and I know them, and they follow me:

28 And I give unto them eternal life; 

and they shall never perish, 

neither shall any man 

pluck them out of my hand.

*NOTE:

Matthew 7:1-23 refers to what JESUS said about "these sayings of mine" .

The things we need to do.

JESUS identifies the enemy

 

Job 1:6-7

King James Version

6 Now there was a day when the sons of God 

came to present themselves before the Lord, 

and Satan came also among them.

7 And the Lord said unto Satan, 

Whence comest thou? 

Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, 

From going to and fro in the earth, 

and from walking up and down in it.

The battles we fight are never that simple.

Unless we are born again, we can't determine who we're really fighting.

Much less know the spirit behind all battles.

Neither would we know how to conquer the battle.

JESUS commands we be born again.

John 3:5-8

King James Version

5 Jesus answered, 

Verily, verily, I say unto thee, 

Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, 

he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; 

and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, 

Ye must be born again.

8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, 

and thou hearest the sound thereof, 

but canst not tell whence it cometh, 

and whither it goeth: 

so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

Being born again gives us accurate discernment.

1 Corinthians 2:14

King James Version

14 But the natural man receiveth not 

the things of the Spirit of God: 

for they are foolishness unto him: 

neither can he know them, 

because they are spiritually discerned.

A true born again believes in the WORD.

And that WORD is CHRIST.

I trust in CHRIST alone.

Herein, the LORD identifies the enemy:

Matthew 6:24

King James Version

24 No man can serve two masters: 

for either he will hate the one, and love the other; 

or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. 

Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

Matthew 16:23

King James Version

23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, 

Get thee behind me, Satan: 

thou art an offence unto me: 

for thou savourest not the things that be of God, 

but those that be of men.

Mark 1:23-26

King James Version

23 And there was in their synagogue 

a man with an unclean spirit; 

and he cried out,

24 Saying, Let us alone; 

what have we to do with thee, 

thou Jesus of Nazareth? 

art thou come to destroy us? 

I know thee who thou art, 

the Holy One of God.

25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, 

Hold thy peace, and come out of him.

26 And when the unclean spirit had torn him, 

and cried with a loud voice, 

he came out of him.

Luke 16:15

King James Version

15 And he said unto them, 

Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; 

but God knoweth your hearts: 

for that which is highly esteemed among men 

is abomination in the sight of God.

John 8:44-45

King James Version

44 Ye are of your father the devil, 

and the lusts of your father ye will do. 

He was a murderer from the beginning, 

and abode not in the truth, 

because there is no truth in him. 

When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: 

for he is a liar, and the father of it.

45 And because I tell you the truth, 

ye believe me not.

John 15:18-19

King James Version

18 If the world hate you, 

ye know that it hated me before it hated you.

19 If ye were of the world, 

the world would love his own: 

but because ye are not of the world, 

but I have chosen you out of the world, 

therefore the world hateth you.

John 16:7-11

King James Version

7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; 

It is expedient for you that I go away: 

for if I go not away, the Comforter 

will not come unto you; 

but if I depart, I will send him unto you.

8 And when he is come, 

he will reprove the world of sin, 

and of righteousness, 

and of judgment:

9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;

10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, 

and ye see me no more;

11 Of judgment, 

because the prince of this world 

is judged.

Revelation 2:12-13

King James Version

12 And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write; 

These things saith he which hath 

the sharp sword with two edges;

13 I know thy works, 

and where thou dwellest, 

even where Satan's seat is: 

and thou holdest fast my name, 

and hast not denied my faith, 

even in those days wherein Antipas 

was my faithful martyr, 

who was slain among you, 

where Satan dwelleth.

Revelation 2:14-15

King James Version

14 But I have a few things against thee, 

because thou hast there them 

that hold the doctrine of Balaam, 

who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock 

before the children of Israel, 

to eat things sacrificed unto idols, 

and to commit fornication.

15 So hast thou also them 

that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitanes, 

which thing I hate.

FORTIFICATION from GOD

 

Philippians 4:13

King James Version

13 I can do all things through Christ 

which strengtheneth me.

Nothing like GOD's WORD to give us peace, safety, security.

And a good night's sleep.

Nothing like His Word to reassure us, each day.

Let His Word tell us so.

What could be stronger than a fortress?

Exodus 15:2-3

King James Version

2 The Lord is my strength and song, 

and he is become my salvation: 

he is my God, 

and I will prepare him an habitation; 

my father's God, 

and I will exalt him.

3 The Lord is a man of war: 

the Lord is his name.

What makes the enemy flee?

James 4:7

King James Version

7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. 

Resist the devil, 

and he will flee from you.

How must we fortify?

Acts 16:31

King James Version

31 And they said, 

Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, 

and thou shalt be saved, 

and thy house.

What strength do we have?

Ezekiel 3:8-9

King James Version

8 Behold, 

I have made thy face strong against their faces, 

and thy forehead strong against their foreheads.

9 As an adamant harder than flint 

have I made thy forehead: 

fear them not, 

neither be dismayed at their looks, 

though they be a rebellious house.

Where do we get power from?

Luke 24:49

King James Version

49 And, behold, 

I send the promise of my Father upon you: 

but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, 

until ye be endued with power from on high.

How do we conquer fear?

2 Timothy 1:7

King James Version

7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; 

but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

What ensures freedom?

2 Corinthians 3:17

King James Version

17 Now the Lord is that Spirit: 

and where the Spirit of the Lord is, 

there is liberty.

Who oversees everything?

Psalm 127:1

King James Version

127 Except the Lord build the house, 

they labour in vain that build it: 

except the Lord keep the city, 

the watchman waketh but in vain.

Who is the head of our army?

Acts 4:10-12

King James Version

10 Be it known unto you all,

and to all the people of Israel, 

that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, 

whom ye crucified, 

whom God raised from the dead, 

even by him doth this man 

stand here before you whole.

11 This is the stone 

which was set at nought of you builders, 

which is become the head of the corner.

12 Neither is there salvation in any other: 

for there is none other name under heaven

 given among men, 

whereby we must be saved.

Of course, we need GOD to fight our battles.

And to help fortify us, in spirit, and in truth.

Especially it's not an ordinary enemy.

JESUS tells us who the enemy is.

That's for the next post.

WATCHMAN verses

 

Psalm 130:6

King James Version

6 My soul waiteth for the Lord 

more than they that watch for the morning: 

I say, more than they that watch for the morning.

A believer in JESUS has a watchman ministry.

As born again, our work is three-fold.

We watch over ourselves, that we live right by GOD.

We watch over the LORD's sheep, that you come to no harm.

We watch for the LORD's coming.

It is an honor to be a watchman.

It takes great love, dedication, and vigilance.

It takes great love for the LORD, to serve Him.

It takes great love for you, that we do this task.

All because SPIRIT and Scripture taught us about JESUS.

JESUS tells us what it means to be a watchman:

Matthew 26:41

King James Version

41 Watch and pray, 

that ye enter not into temptation: 

the spirit indeed is willing, 

but the flesh is weak.

Matthew 26:40-41

King James Version

40 And he cometh unto the disciples, 

and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, 

What, could ye not watch with me one hour?

41 Watch and pray, 

that ye enter not into temptation: 

the spirit indeed is willing, 

but the flesh is weak.

Mark 13:37

King James Version

37 And what I say unto you 

I say unto all, 

Watch.

Mark 13:32-34

King James Version

32 But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, 

no, not the angels which are in heaven, 

neither the Son, but the Father.

33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: 

for ye know not when the time is.

34 For the Son of Man is as a man 

taking a far journey, who left his house, 

and gave authority to his servants, 

and to every man his work, 

and commanded the porter to watch.

Mark 13:35-37

King James Version

35 Watch ye therefore: 

for ye know not 

when the master of the house cometh, 

at even, 

or at midnight, 

or at the cockcrowing, 

or in the morning:

36 Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.

37 And what I say unto you I say unto all, 

Watch.

Luke 21:29-33

King James Version

29 And he spake to them a parable; 

Behold the fig tree, and all the trees;

30 When they now shoot forth, 

ye see and know of your own selves 

that summer is now nigh at hand.

31 So likewise ye, 

when ye see these things come to pass, 

know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand.

32 Verily I say unto you, 

This generation shall not pass away, 

till all be fulfilled.

33 Heaven and earth shall pass away: 

but my words shall not pass away.

John 10:11-13

King James Version

11 I am the good shepherd: 

the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.

12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, 

whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, 

and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: 

and the wolf catcheth them, 

and scattereth the sheep.

13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, 

and careth not for the sheep.

John 10:14-15

King James Version

14 I am the good shepherd, 

and know my sheep, 

and am known of mine.

15 As the Father knoweth me, 

even so know I the Father: 

and I lay down my life for the sheep.

These verses tell us more about being a watchman.

2 Kings 9:17

King James Version

17 And there stood a watchman 

on the tower in Jezreel, 

and he spied the company of Jehu as he came, 

and said, I see a company. 

And Joram said, Take an horseman, 

and send to meet them, and let him say, 

Is it peace?

Nehemiah 4:9

King James Version

9 Nevertheless we made our prayer unto our God, 

and set a watch against them day and night, 

because of them.

Nehemiah 7:1-3

King James Version

7 Now it came to pass, 

when the wall was built, 

and I had set up the doors, 

and the porters and the singers 

and the Levites were appointed,

2 That I gave my brother Hanani, 

and Hananiah the ruler of the palace, 

charge over Jerusalem: 

for he was a faithful man, 

and feared God above many.

3 And I said unto them, 

Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened 

until the sun be hot; 

and while they stand by, 

let them shut the doors, and bar them: 

and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, 

every one in his watch, and every one 

to be over against his house.

Proverbs 8:34-35

King James Version

34 Blessed is the man that heareth me, 

watching daily at my gates, 

waiting at the posts of my doors.

35 For whoso findeth me findeth life, 

and shall obtain favour of the Lord.

Isaiah 21:5-6

King James Version

5 Prepare the table, 

watch in the watchtower, 

eat, drink: arise, ye princes, 

and anoint the shield.

6 For thus hath the Lord said unto me, 

Go, set a watchman, 

let him declare what he seeth.

Isaiah 21:7-9

King James Version

7 And he saw a chariot with a couple of horsemen, 

a chariot of asses, and a chariot of camels; 

and he hearkened diligently with much heed:

8 And he cried, A lion: 

My lord, I stand continually 

upon the watchtower in the daytime, 

and I am set in my ward whole nights:

9 And, behold, 

here cometh a chariot of men, 

with a couple of horsemen. 

And he answered and said, 

Babylon is fallen, is fallen; 

and all the graven images of her gods 

he hath broken unto the ground.

Isaiah 21:11-12

King James Version

11 The burden of Dumah. 

He calleth to me out of Seir, 

Watchman, what of the night? 

Watchman, what of the night?

12 The watchman said, 

The morning cometh, and also the night: 

if ye will enquire, enquire ye: 

return, come.

Isaiah 52:7-8

King James Version

7 How beautiful upon the mountains 

are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, 

that publisheth peace; 

that bringeth good tidings of good, 

that publisheth salvation; 

that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!

8 Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; 

with the voice together shall they sing: 

for they shall see eye to eye, 

when the Lord shall bring again Zion.

Isaiah 62:6-7

King James Version

6 I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, 

which shall never hold their peace day nor night: 

ye that make mention of the Lord, keep not silence,

7 And give him no rest, till he establish, 

and till he make Jerusalem 

a praise in the earth.

Jeremiah 1:9-10

King James Version

9 Then the Lord put forth his hand, 

and touched my mouth. 

And the Lord said unto me, 

Behold, 

I have put my words in thy mouth.

10 See, I have this day set thee 

over the nations and over the kingdoms, 

to root out, 

and to pull down, 

and to destroy, 

and to throw down, 

to build, 

and to plant.

Jeremiah 31:6

King James Version

6 For there shall be a day, 

that the watchmen upon the mount Ephraim shall cry, 

Arise ye, and let us go up to Zion 

unto the Lord our God.

Jeremiah 51:11-13

King James Version

11 Make bright the arrows; 

gather the shields: 

the Lord hath raised up the spirit of the kings

of the Medes: 

for his device is against Babylon, 

to destroy it; 

because it is the vengeance of the Lord, 

the vengeance of his temple.

12 Set up the standard upon the walls of Babylon, 

make the watch strong, 

set up the watchmen, 

prepare the ambushes: 

for the Lord hath both devised and done 

that which he spake against the inhabitants of Babylon.

13 O thou that dwellest upon many waters, 

abundant in treasures, 

thine end is come, 

and the measure of thy covetousness.

Ezekiel 3:8-9

King James Version

8 Behold, 

I have made thy face strong against their faces, 

and thy forehead strong against their foreheads.

9 As an adamant harder than flint 

have I made thy forehead: 

fear them not, 

neither be dismayed at their looks, 

though they be a rebellious house.

Ezekiel 3:16-18

King James Version

16 And it came to pass at the end of seven days, 

that the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

17 Son of man, 

I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: 

therefore hear the word at my mouth, 

and give them warning from me.

18 When I say unto the wicked, 

Thou shalt surely die; 

and thou givest him not warning, 

nor speakest to warn the wicked 

from his wicked way, to save his life; 

the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; 

but his blood will I require at thine hand.

Ezekiel 3:19

King James Version

19 Yet if thou warn the wicked, 

and he turn not from his wickedness, 

nor from his wicked way, 

he shall die in his iniquity; 

but thou hast delivered thy soul.

Ezekiel 3:20

King James Version

20 Again, 

When a righteous man doth turn 

from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, 

and I lay a stumbling-block before him, he shall die: 

because thou hast not given him warning, 

he shall die in his sin, 

and his righteousness which he hath done 

shall not be remembered; 

but his blood will I require at thine hand.

Ezekiel 3:16-21

King James Version

21 Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man, 

that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, 

he shall surely live, because he is warned; 

also thou hast delivered thy soul.

Ezekiel 33:7

King James Version

7 So thou, O son of man, 

I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; 

therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, 

and warn them from me.

Habakkuk 2:1-3

King James Version

2 I will stand upon my watch, 

and set me upon the tower, 

and will watch to see what he will say unto me, 

and what I shall answer when I am reproved.

2 And the Lord answered me, and said, 

Write the vision, 

and make it plain upon tables, 

that he may run that readeth it.

3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time, 

but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: 

though it tarry, wait for it; 

because it will surely come, 

it will not tarry.

2 Corinthians 11:27-28

King James Version

27 In weariness and painfulness, 

in watchings often, 

in hunger and thirst, 

in fastings often, 

in cold and nakedness.

28 Beside those things that are without, 

that which cometh upon me daily, 

the care of all the churches.
