To Deal With Giants

To Deal With Giants…

Moses didn’t sit complaining about Pharaoh. He led his people out of Egypt. David didn’t sit with his brothers complaining about the Philistines and the state of Israel. He fought Goliath and reigned as king. The apostles didn’t spend time dwelling on persecution, the Sanhedrin or how bad the Romans were. They served the Lord and spread the Word.

Some believers have a defeated attitude; a persecution complex, a paranoid attitude, a defensive attitude, overly conscious of and dwelling on evil. We’re to be aware of evil; the world, temptations, and dangers. But we’re not to be focused on it; dwelling on it, getting an attitude of defensiveness.

God didn’t call us for such a time as this to be defensive. Be on the offense; moving forward. You’re not a victim of the earth; you’re the salt of the earth. You’re the light of the world, not defeated by darkness. Stop complaining and start doing something.

Get out your slingshot and run to that giant! Take that problem and the world head-on because God called you not to be overcome, but to overcome evil and the world with good.

“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” John 16:33

Stop being overcome or defined by your problems, your giant – and overcome your giant with God’s power – the evil with good.

Walk daily with God at your side!

Love always,

Ed
