Hell Can't Stop The Build

Oct 5, 2025    Pastor Darrio Melton

In this powerful message, we're reminded that when God calls us to build something, opposition is inevitable. The story of Nehemiah rebuilding Jerusalem's walls serves as a profound metaphor for our own spiritual journeys. Just as Nehemiah faced ridicule and threats, we too may encounter obstacles when pursuing God's purpose for our lives. However, the key lesson here is that conflict often confirms our calling. When the enemy attacks, it's a sign we're moving in the right direction! We're encouraged to view opposition not as a setback, but as confirmation that we're advancing God's kingdom. The message emphasizes the importance of both prayer and action - we must rely on God's strength while also doing our part. By holding a 'tool in one hand and a sword in the other,' we're called to be both builders and warriors in our faith walk. This teaching challenges us to examine our own lives, identify our weak areas, and reinforce them with God's Word and the support of fellow believers. Ultimately, we're reminded that no matter what hell throws our way, it cannot stop what God has ordained us to build.
