  2. ‘It isn’t over until the fat lady sings …’

  3. most of chapter 7 …

  4. “I’ve started … so I’ll finish!” Magnus Magnusson

  5. Lord God, when you call your servants to endeavour any great matter, grant us also to know that it is not the beginning, but the continuing of the same, until it be thoroughly finished, which yields the true glory; through him who, for the finishing of your work, laid down his life for us, our Redeemer, Jesus Christ.

  6. I’ve started … - so I’ll finish?

  7. “You were running a good race …” “Demas, because he loved this world, has deserted me.” “The love of many will grow cold”

  8. The devil’s schemes: (“we are not unaware of Satan’s schemes”) distraction (2,4) accusation (5-7) intimidation (9) conspiracy (10) commitment (3) truth (8) prayer (9b) discernment & courage (11-13) “I was afraid … so I hid”

  9. ‘So the wall was completed … - all the surrounding nations were afraid and lost their self-confidence, because they realised this work had been done with the help of our God.” TRUTH WILL OUT!

  10. “I’VE STARTED – SO I’LL FINISH” Vague hope? Grim determination? Gracious promise? Confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus Philippians 1:6
