We follow Ezra through anxiety, fasting, and a risky journey with sacred wealth, then pivot to a piercing call to reject syncretism and return to Jesus as Lord. Practical steps help us guard the garden at home, in marriage, and in singleness, ending with consecration and a fresh filling of the Spirit.

• Ezra’s fasting, humility, and strategy under pressure
• Stewardship lessons from weighing sacred wealth
• Faith decision to refuse royal protection
• Syncretism defined and unmasked in modern forms
• The “compassion gospel” versus love with truth
• The “me gospel,” lordship, and daily presence with God
• Power and policy idols alongside justice idolatry
• Guarding the garden in marriage, parenting, and home life
• A vision for singles: undivided devotion and holy purpose
• Corporate repentance, consecration, and fresh filling of the Spirit
