Psa 127:1 A Song of degrees for
Solomon. Except the LORD build the
house, they labour in vain that build it:
except the LORD keep the city, the
watchman waketh but in vain.
Psa 127:2 It is vain for you to rise
up early, to sit up late, to eat the
bread of sorrows: for so he giveth
his beloved sleep.
Psa 127:3 Lo, children are an
heritage of the LORD: and the fruit
of the womb is his reward.
Psa 127:4 As arrows are in the hand
of a mighty man; so are children of the
youth.
Psa 127:5 Happy is the man that
hath his quiver full of them: they
shall not be ashamed, but they
shall speak with the enemies in
the gate.

The Warfare
Israel warfare Accomplished
Isa 40:2 Speak ye comfortably to
Jerusalem, and cry unto her, that her
warfare is accomplished, that her
iniquity is pardoned: for she hath
received of the LORD'S hand double
for all her sins.
The Battle in Building
Neh 4:1 But it came to pass,
that when Sanballat heard that
we builded the wall, he was
wroth, and took great
indignation, and mocked the
Jews.
Neh 4:2 And he spake before his
brethren and the army of Samaria,
and said, What do these feeble Jews?
will they fortify themselves? will they
sacrifice? will they make an end in a
day? will they revive the stones out of
the heaps of the rubbish which are
burned?
The Battle in Building
Ezr 4:1 Now when the adversaries of
Judah and Benjamin heard that the
children of the captivity builded the
temple unto the LORD God of Israel;
Ezr 4:2 Then they came to
Zerubbabel, and to the chief of the
fathers, and said unto them, Let us
build with you: for we seek your God,
as ye do; and we do sacrifice unto
him since the days of Esarhaddon
king of Assur, which brought us up
hither.
Ezr 4:3 But Zerubbabel, and Jeshua,
and the rest of the chief of the fathers of
Israel, said unto them, Ye have nothing
to do with us to build an house unto our
God; but we ourselves together will build
unto the LORD God of Israel, as king
Cyrus the king of Persia hath
commanded us.
Ezr 4:4 Then the people of the land
weakened the hands of the people of
Judah, and troubled them in building,
Ezr 4:5 And hired counsellors against
them, to frustrate their purpose, all the
days of Cyrus king of Persia, even until
the reign of Darius king of Persia.
Ezr 5:16 Then came the same
Sheshbazzar, and laid the foundation of the
house of God which is in Jerusalem: and
since that time even until now hath it been
in building, and yet it is not finished.
The Promise to Israel
Psa 121:4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel
shall neither slumber nor sleep.
Psa 121:5 The LORD is thy keeper: the
LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
The Promise to the Church
Rev 3:10 Because thou hast kept the
word of my patience, I also will keep
thee from the hour of temptation,
which shall come upon all the world,
to try them that dwell upon the
earth.
Promise to you Christian
1Pe 1:4 To an inheritance
incorruptible, and undefiled, and that
fadeth not away, reserved in heaven
for you,
1Pe 1:5 Who are kept by the power
of God through faith unto salvation
ready to be revealed in the last time.
1Ti 1:18 This charge I commit unto
thee, son Timothy, according to the
prophecies which went before on thee,
that thou by them mightest war a good
warfare;
1Ti 1:19 Holding faith, and a good
conscience; which some having put away
concerning faith have made shipwreck:
