”Then said David to the Philistine, You come to me with a sword, a spear, and a javelin, but I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the ranks of Israel, Whom you have defied!.........And all this assembly shall know that the Lords saves not with sword and spear; for the battle is the Lord’s and He will give you into our hands!” 1 Samuel 17: 45 & 47
Three questions: Who are you? Whose are you? Who do you represent? Most of us have heard the story of David and Goliath. David, a young boy who kept his father’s sheep and Goliath a giant who had been a warrior from his youth, were going to go head to head in battle. Despite the odds that were against David; David knew who he was, whose he was and who he represented. David knew that he was a child of God and that he belonged to God! He also knew that he represented the Kingdom and being certain of this fact, David with Godly confidence and boldness prepared to defeat Goliath! Goliath was a giant in stature, but David was a giant in faith. David knew that the “world’s equipment” could never compare to the armor of God! This knowledge afforded David the victory over Goliath! What is the “goliath” in your life? Today, I challenge you to be bold like David and tell that giant who you are, whose you are, and who you represent! Command him to back off….SPEAK the Word only! Remember, your circumstances are not greater than the Greater One inside, of Whom you represent! As God asked Sarah in Genesis I will ask you, “Is anything too hard for God?” The answer is NO! So there…..YOU HAVE ALREADY CONQUERED the giants in your life! Be encouraged!
