Every wall that’s ever been built started with faith — not blueprints. But the kind of faith that rebuilds broken things? It’s gritty, persistent, and courageous.
In A Faith That Overcomes, Pastor Josh continues the Building Beyond series, showing how Nehemiah moved from burden to bold faith.
Faith that rebuilds is not just emotional — it’s enduring. It keeps praying, keeps building, and keeps believing even when resistance comes.
Main Idea: Faith builds and battles at the same time.
Main Topics Covered:
1. Faith Starts with the Word
2. Faith Encounters Resistance
3. Faith Is Declared
4. Faith Is Contagious
5. Faith Builds and Battles Simultaneously
Practical Life Applications:
- Anchor your faith in the Word; let prayer frame your response to resistance.
- Expect opposition — but let it strengthen conviction, not steal momentum.
- Speak faith out loud — your words can steady your heart.
- Remember your example matters: faith is transferable.
- Keep your trowel and your sword — build and battle with equal resolve.
Key Takeaway
- Faith doesn’t wait for perfect conditions; it builds through imperfect ones.
-God is constructing something through your battle — and forming something in you at the same time.
-Faith builds and battles at once, and both are holy work.
