2 Samuel 21:22 “These four Philistines were descendants of the giants of Gath, but David and his warriors killed them.”
Your enemy seems too big to be defeated. They are many, yes. They are well entrenched, yes. They are more ruthless and relentless than you all have been. But, they are not mine. They do not have me. David slayed Goliath with a small rock and a very large faith. David’s warriors killed 4 Philistine giants – again with regular weapons but faith in me, that I would be by their side and give them victory. Do you not believe I am still able? Do you not believe I am still willing? You do not really know or understand what I am able to do, what I am willing to do for my children. I have called you to be my warriors. I have called you into the battle to defend my people. I have called you for specific purposes. Do not allow the apparent size of your enemy to daunt you. I am more powerful. Do not allow them to distract you from me, from my voice. Shut it all out and seek me. Spend real time with me and you will hear me, and feel my presence and your ability to trust will be strengthened. But, if you spend all of your time looking at your enemy, listening to their lies, allowing them to instill fear – you will have already lost. They can only harm you in ways that you allow them to. I am in you. I am with you. I am for you. I AM. Trust. Listen and follow my voice, only my voice. Shut their voices out. (2021)
