Our daily lives are fraught with behemoth’s , Beelzebub’s, and Goliath’s. To maintain order in our chaos we must seek the presence of God in all ways, decisions, and actions. Most importantly, it is about trusting His Way and not get discouraged, give up, give in, or walk away when things do not go as planned. We must seek Holy wisdom and be willing to change tactics to match God’s timing, process, and stay firmly planted close to His plan.
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. This day the Lord will deliver you into my hands, and I’ll strike you down and cut off your head. This very day I will give the carcasses of the Philistine army to the birds and the wild animals, and the whole world will know that there is a God in Israel. All those gathered here will know that it is not by sword or spear that the Lord saves; for the battle is the Lord’s, and he will give all of you into our hands.” As the Philistine moved closer to attack him, David ran quickly toward the battle line to meet him. Reaching into his bag and taking out a stone, he slung it and struck the Philistine on the forehead. The stone sank into his forehead, and he fell facedown on the ground. 1 Samuel 17: 45-49
To be great at anything we do in life we must first follow in the footsteps of the God way and know Holy deeply before the Goliath’s strike. Pray, seek the Word, watch for God’s timing and wisdom, and maintain daily closeness of the one who fights for you in the spiritual realm and in the earthly realm.
