Holy Stubbornness is a Christian concept meaning an unyielding, resolute commitment to God's will, truth, and promises, even when facing worldly pressure or difficulty, often framed as a positive, persevering faith (like Jesus's unchanging purpose) rather than the negative biblical stubbornness (which is willful disobedience, a hardened heart, or self-centered rebellion)
Imagine if, in 2026, our public promises carried that kind of weight. Today, we are used to "non-binding resolutions" and corporate "social responsibility" statements that look good on a website but don't change the balance sheets of the working class. Nehemiah’s world didn't have "fine print." It had the "shaking of the robe." It had a God who holds the powerful accountable for how they treat the powerless and the fear of God.
In the previous text . Nehemiah 5:10–11 highlights Nehemiah’s call for justice, integrity, and compassion among the people during the rebuilding of Jerusalem. Nehemiah confronts the nobles and officials for charging excessive interest and exploiting their fellow Jews who were already struggling financially. Although he and others had the ability to lend money and grain, Nehemiah urged them to stop practices that placed heavier burdens on the people. He challenged them to immediately restore the fields, vineyards, olive groves, homes, and the interest they had taken from those in need.
As I’ve been pondering why self-control is listed last, I’m reminded of Pastor Tony Evans’ definition of love—compassionately, righteously, and sacrificially pursuing the well-being of another. When I filter my responses through that lens, I realize that loving well sometimes requires sacrificing what I want to say. Not because I’m wrong. Not because my feelings aren’t hurt. But because choosing restraint is more sacrificial—and in that moment, laying it down makes me look more like Jesus than winning an argument ever could.
Revelation 12: 12 Amplified
Therefore rejoice, O heavens and you who dwell in them [in the presence of God]. Woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has come down to you in great wrath, knowing that he has only a short time [remaining]!”
When we are not connected to the body and when we insist on doing life, faith, calling, or purpose on our own, we don’t become stronger—we become severed.
It was never Christ's intention for us to position ourselves and strive for meaning in isolation or compete within the body. It is his intention for us to find who we are in him and from that awareness we are positioned within the body to function effortlessly.
This is the thing, that feeling I had on that plane leaving California and returning back to Dallas, I have had that feeling over and over again, in different circumstances as well, I want to continue to have it in my walk with Christ. So my encouragement for you is to finish and finish well. Finish in a manner where you know God is proud. Finish well so you can rest without guilt or shame.
Prayer: Lord allow us to know that our silence isn’t a weakness its wisdom, allow us to be like Jesus to understand our assignment, allow us to refuse to waste words where your trust isn’t honored. Father allow us to not be distracted by meaningless defense when trust isn’t values. We have an example in Jesus , we have an example in Nehemiah, now allow us to be an example in thinking before we defend. In Jesus Name Amen
Now listen this prayer did not lift my circumstances; the plate was still full ...it lifted my perspective to see that I had the capacity to accomplish each task . It would require that I lean in, focus and dare not go at accomplishing things in my own strength.
New International Version
10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him.
11 He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him.
While at work, I came across an article featured on Hacker News about how hackers are using PDFs to impersonate companies like Microsoft and DocuSign, among others, in callback phishing campaigns. As I read the article, I couldn’t help but make the connection with how the enemy seeks to hack the holiness of God from our lives, and instead of us being a light like a city on a hill (Matthew 5:14), we start to live a life of darkness.
Your assignment is yours. You can’t CC God or pass it off to someone else like it’s a hot potato—He gave it to you to steward, to grow through, and to honor Him. Hard as it may be, your assignment propels you into purpose, shapes you as a potter, shapes clay, and draws you closer to Him toward intimacy. Embrace it fully, because obedience—not avoidance—is where God’s power and purpose are revealed.
Selfishly we want full rooms when we host public events however God wants a full life that seeks to please him
Im so glad I obeyed in obedience there is rest a holy rest without shame or guilt.
Obeying unlocks unusual outcomes in heaven and on earth.
Many times we don't get the promised rest because we haven't fully fulfilled the last request God asked of us or if we did we did it without the correct posture.

"Letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace." — Romans 8:6 (NLT)
In every moment, we’re faced with a choice: let fear and doubt control our thoughts, or align our minds with the truth of God’s Word. Caleb chose life when others chose fear—because his mind was set on the promises of God, not the giants in front of him. You can do the same.
Peace isn’t found in perfection—it’s found in perspective.
And when your thoughts are led by the Spirit, they lead you straight to life, purpose, and victory.
We are often comforted by the familiar — the known details of life, the who, what, when, where, and how that make us feel safe and secure. There is ease in having the full picture, in knowing how things will turn out. But in today’s world, where everyone has a voice and oversharing is common, I’ve noticed something: when all the details aren’t shared, people rush to fill in the gaps, often misunderstanding or misjudging
As we commemorate Juneteenth, we remember that pivotal moment when enslaved people in Texas finally received word of their freedom on June 19, 1865. Though the Emancipation Proclamation had been signed years earlier, oppressors deliberately withheld this life-changing news for their own profit and gain. They sought to keep God's people bound when freedom had already been declared.
This historical reality mirrors a spiritual truth that resonates deeply in our lives today. Just as our ancestors' oppressors used deception and delay to maintain control, the enemy of our souls employs similar tactics to keep us from experiencing the freedom that God has already secured for us through Christ.
In studying Caleb, I looked at my own journey and as much as I would like to admit that I am like him, I fell like I fell short. Caleb taught me how to get my courage up, if I wanted to conquer any conquest I had to level up mentally and emotionally. In studying Caleb I saw endurance difference- I no longer saw it as a daunting thing to toil through but a way to look forward to the promise and plans that God has FOR ME.
Jesus could have exercised His divine authority over the temple guards, the elders, and even Pilate, the Roman governor. Yet, He chose not to. Why? Because the will of the Father was at the forefront of His mind, and in fulfilling that will, He kept us in mind the entire time.
During a recent Community Fast and Bible Study hosted by Fade2Bold, a friend shared this scripture that deeply resonated with me. The verse stood out because of its intentional structure, guiding us into a deeper relationship with God.
The book of Joshua opens with a clear succession plan in place. With Moses' passing, the people mourn, and God speaks directly to Joshua, revealing that the time has come for Israel to enter the Promised Land. Joshua is chosen for this pivotal role, and in this moment, God imparts a divine blueprint to him—one that includes the promise of the land, the plan for their journey, and the provision necessary to see it through. This marked the beginning of a new chapter for Israel, with Joshua leading them forward in faith and obedience to God's call.
