BATTLE CRY

TODAY'S READING: 1 Sam. 17; Ps. 9; Mt. 2

Scripture
1 Samuel 17:45-47 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. [46] 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. [47] 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."

Observation

This is about what God can do, not what I can do.
Got any giants that need to die!
Give the battle to the LORD

Application

From attitudes to actions, kill the ugly giants that taunt me.
From habits to heartaches, kill the ugly giants that taunt me.
From misconceptions to materialism, kill the ugly giants that taunt me.

Prayer

Holy Spirit,
Show we the giants,
I'll show the giants, my God.
The battle belongs to the LORD.
In the name of the LORD Almighty
