HEY, IT'S TIME TO DEFEAT YOUR GIANT!

""This day the Lord will hand you over to me, and I will strike you down and cut off your head....and the whole world will know that there is a God in Israel".1 Samuel 17:46. This morning, the Lord brought me to the story of David and Goliath. My friend, do you know how to defeat your "giants" in your life? When things are too big for us to handle, when life seems to be overwhelming, we need to trust and look to God for our strength and deliverance. Our temptations are no different from what others experience. "No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear...He will provide a way out..." 1 Corinthians 10:13. Regardless of whether the giant you face is addiction, resentment, fear, lust, envy, anger, covetousness, alcoholism, sexual perversions etc., it did not become a problem (giant) overnight. Right? You see, Goliath wasn't always a giant; he was fed and nurtured until he became a giant. Tada! Our giants are usually little sins we overlook and indulge until they assume a life of their own and come back and haunt us. Bro: It is time to confront your giant head-on. Don't run away, don't negotiate, don't compromise and yes- don't excuse. Force your giant out in to the light, establish boundaries and make yourself accountable. Stay out of wrong company. Above all, don't look at your God in the light of your giant, look at your giant in the LIGHT OF YOUR GOD! Remember, we have been called to live a life worthy of ONE WHOSE NAME WE CARRY..that's LORD JESUS!!! DEFEAT YOUR GIANT.....YES YOU CAN!!
