The sixth law of progression: Anticipate and Prepare For Obstacles
Obstacles are a sign that we are well on our way to progress. Most of us are disappointed when we encounter obstacles and tend to discontinue our efforts because of some misguided idea that the way to progress should be problem-free. However, we need to understand that on the road to progress, obstacles are inevitable, so we might as well anticipate them and prepare to overcome them well in advance.
In the passage above we see Nehemiah doing exactly this. Nehemiah was embarking on his mission of rebuilding the broken walls of Jerusalem. Anticipating the kind of obstacles that would arise, Nehemiah prepares for them by requesting the king for letters that provided him with wood and with safe passage to Judah.
When we continue through this book we find that Nehemiah faced numerous obstacles. But nothing deterred him. Every time he faced a problem, he sought God’s help and God provided it. Every obstacle he overcame might have become one more reason for him to accomplish his goal. In other words, the obstacles he faced made him more determined.
Frank A. Clarke said, “If you can find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn't lead anywhere.”
The greater the obstacle, the more significant the goal. If the number of obstacles that keep cropping up discourages you in your life, choose to persevere and ask God to see you through. He will provide the solution. On the way to accomplishing your mission remember that obstacles will be there and prepare to overcome them.

God's desire for His Children is for them to prosper,grow and make progress and not just exist and survive. However we notice that while few progress most barely get through. Is our God partial to bless only few? As we browse through the Bible we see several instances of God accomplishing extraordinary achievements through ordinary people. As we we study the lives of these individuals we recognise specific principles at work, these principles are the Laws of Progression which when practised will cause individuals to excel and not just exist.
