Nehemiah 4:9-10
Nevertheless we made our prayer unto our God, and set a watch against them day and night, because of them. And Judah said, The strength of the bearers of burdens is decayed, and there is much rubbish; so that we are not able to build the wall.

Examples -
Saul lost the kingdom because of disobedience
Moses didn’t go into the promised land
Remove the Rubble - It wore the laborers down

Nehemiah 4:1
Your past testimony.
Then I told them of the hand of my God which was good upon me; as also the king’s words that he had spoken unto me. And they said, Let us rise up and build. So they strengthened their hands for this good work.
The people were prepared to fight but they realized the Lord was fighting for them.

When God is for you, who can be against you. -
Keep The Vision Before You
And I looked, and rose up, and said unto the nobles, and to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, Be not ye afraid of them: remember the Lord, which is great and terrible, and fight for your brethren, your sons, and your daughters, your wives, and your houses.
My people perish for a lack of vision -
