Nehemiah 6 stood out to me from my Bible Study this morning, specifically where his enemies make multiple attempts to disrupt his work, finally by bribing a "prophet" to make him afraid. But, Nehemiah said this,

"Should such a man as I flee?"
—Nehemiah 6:11

Wow.

It reminds me of where Jesus said,

“Now My soul is troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father, save Me from this hour’? But for this purpose I came to this hour."
— John 12:27

It is a conqueror's mindset—marching forward, refusing to be stopped by fear (note I didn't say we're not afraid or concerned but rather not stopped).

And I glean this:

When the Lord gives you a work, let no one make you afraid—even those who come to you in the name of the Lord, because a spirit of fear is not from God. (2 Timothy 1:7)
