(R) Don't Rest Before You Press

Nehemiah 6:3 says, "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?" Let that sink in. Sometimes, the most spiritual thing you can do is keep working. The enemy doesn't always show up with destruction—he shows up with distractions. You were locked in. You were building something great. You had momentum. Then a text came through. A funny video. An opinion. A discouraging voice. A false opportunity. And suddenly, the press stopped. Nehemiah had people trying to pull him down from the wall. They weren't threatening to kill him, just inviting him to have a conversation. But Nehemiah saw it clearly: "If I come down to talk, the work stops." Some of you keep stopping for conversations that are killing your call. You've given too much attention to the wrong voices. The devil couldn't destroy you, so he tried to distract you. And the most dangerous thing about a distraction—it looks harmless. You're not burnt out. You're not finished. You're just letting notifications dictate your anointing. Put your phone on Do Not Disturb and press. Not later. Now. God is building something in you, through you. Your schedule is the shovel. Your discipline is the hammer. Your wall is rising—don't come down. You don't need another sign. You need to press.   Links: Patreon → https://www.patreon.com/godlovessmalltalk Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/4Vk6QIlNiEG2Y5Vv4p3UVc Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/search?term=god%20loves%20small%20talk
