Neh 6:15-16 So the wall was finished in the twenty-fifth day of the month Elul, in fifty-two days. And it came about when all our enemies heard of this, and all the nations that were around us saw these things, that they were much deflated in their own eyes, for they perceived that this work was done by our God.
Nehemiah’s call to rebuild the wall was faced with enormous setbacks and opposition from Tobias ,Sanballat and their allies. They faced mockery ,false accusation, threats ,insults and attacks. It was even alleged that whatever they were building was so inferior and feeble that foxes would make it collapse by just leaning or climbing on it .
However, Nehemiah and his co-builders kept on the vision and focused on completing the task. Upon its completion,enemies dreaded and shredded and had nothing else to say. Their insults and shame turned back on them . One thing that is hard to argue with is results; it is hard to argue with them . “Results have a way of marketing themselves “.
Results shows up as the truth of what has been taking place.
Winston Churchill once quipped: “The truth is incontrovertible , So with results. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, it is .” They cancel insults, and eventually elevate you to a Consultant. Men lie, women lie, results don’t. Do not fear, for you will not be put to shame. Do not feel humiliated, for you will not be disgraced.
