Why does doing the right thing often lead to resistance? The Jewish exiles returning from Babylon learned this lesson quickly. After rebuilding the altar and laying the temple foundation, they faced immediate opposition. Their enemies discouraged them, spreading fear and frustration until the work completely stopped. Have you ever felt like giving up on something God called you to do? In this episode, Stephen Davey explores the story of Ezra 3–4, showing how worshiping God faithfully invites both His blessing and the enemy’s attacks. But take heart—opposition never means defeat when God is leading the way. Learn how to stand firm in faith, press forward in obedience, and resist the enemy’s schemes. If discouragement has ever slowed your spiritual growth, this lesson will give you the encouragement you need to keep going.
