Battling the Lies of Fear
It's easy to think of Nehemiah as a powerful figure and to aspire to his level of boldness. But what if the key to Nehemiah's accomplishments wasn't based on his innate boldness or supernatural strength, but in his fear of the Lord? As we journey through Nehemiah's story, we will learn to trade the lies we believe for the truth of God, for it was out of Nehemiah's fear of God that he was able to battle his biggest fears. When our fear feels too big for us to overcome, we will find the fear of God becomes our greatest tool against every other fear.
