Victory in
The Battles Of Life
The battles of life often seem
overwhelming, leaving you with feelings of
hopelessness and despair. It is reassuring at
these times to read the account of David’s
victory over Goliath to understand that
nothing is too big for God.
David was a teenager who
already was steeped in the ways of the Lord
because of the many nights he invested
intimately seeking God while shepherding
sheep. David’s willing, obedient servant’s
attitude positioned him for the victory that
would catapult him into greatness: his father
wanted him to run an errand and take supplies
to the battlefield, and David obeyed.
But, when David least
expected it, God opened a monumental door for
him. Notice how David responded in 1 Samuel
17:45-47. He not only felt compelled to fight
for what he knew was right but was eager. He
made a positive faith confession in the face
of daunting odds, and he affirmed the proper
motivation.
Finally, David responded as
we all should in our Goliath life struggles.
He relied on the power of God and not on his
own strength. What is the famous line that
echoes from this story? The battle is the
Lord’s. . . .
Remember how it all started.
David had invested countless hours in intimacy
with the Lord. His inexhaustible faith and
trust in the Lord came because the battle had
long previously been fought—on his knees.
DO YOU ?
Do you ever feel
discouraged and dissatisfied? Do you ever have
feelings of unrest and fear of the future?
Does the thought of death and the hereafter
haunt you?
YOU ARE
Are you
looking for an unconditional love? Someone who
accepts you where you are and loves you no
matter what? Look no further than a personal
relationship with Jesus Christ.
Cast all your anxiety on him because he
cares for you.
1 Peter 5:7 NIV
Never let the enemy tell
you that you re worthless or insignificant.
You have value in the eyes of God so great
that it was worth dying for. You are a
blessing to the world.
Did you know God's
forgiveness and unconditional love is
available for anyone who asks?
If you haven't made the
decision to accept Christ as Lord
