How To Defeat Your Giants

How To Defeat Your Giants

“David said to the Philistine, ‘You come against me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the Lord Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.”
1st Samuel 17:45

There are so many stories in the Bible that should inspire us to face our “giants” and bring them down in the name of Jesus Christ. For most of us, “giants” can be things that suddenly rise up against us in life like disease, relationship conflict, financial struggles, career and employment problems or some other tragedy. “Giants” can also come upon us from our inward struggles of unforgiveness, bitterness, anger, lust, pride, sexual impurity, lying, cheating and other things. If these “giants” are not conquered, we will remain defeated and without influence in our world. Defeating these “giants”, or others like them, may not be easy, but it is possible. You must remember that, as in the case with the small shepherd boy David, and the giant, Goliath, that Goliath was no match for the power of God. David had a heart that sought God throughout his life and wanted to know and find out more about Him. If you feel like there are some “giants’ that have suddenly appeared in your life, and you are faced with a spiritual battle of biblical proportions, if you have God on your side your “giant” will be no match for Him. In His name you will defeat and conquer your “giant”. Just as David did you also need to have your heart seeking for God and finding out all about Him, by reading and studying His word, and praying to Him throughout your day. If you seek God and ask Him to be with you there are no “giants” too large for you to defeat, and you too can enjoy the spoils of victory.
