FIRE SCRIPTURE
1 Samuel 17:32-37
32 David said to Saul, “People shouldn’t let Goliath discourage them. I am your servant. I will go fight this Philistine.”
33 Saul answered, “You can’t go out and fight against this Philistine. You’re not even a soldier! Goliath has been fighting in wars since he was a boy.”
34 But David said to Saul, “There were times when I was taking care of my father’s sheep that wild animals came to take some sheep from the flock. Once there was a lion and another time, a bear. 35 I chased that wild animal, attacked it, and took the sheep from its mouth. The wild animal jumped on me, but I caught it by the fur under its mouth. And I hit it and killed it.
36 I killed both a lion and a bear like that! And I will kill that foreigner, Goliath, just like them. Goliath will die because he made fun of the army of the living God. 37 The Lord saved me from the lion and the bear. He will also save me from this Philistine.”
Saul said to David, “Go and may the Lord be with you.”
MFM Daily Devotional 10th November 2023 MESSAGE
David was the last born in his family and was put in charge of his father’s sheep. He led them out, brought them in and protected them. All this while, no one, including him knew that the Lord was preparing him for a big event in Israel. The victories he got while tendering his father’s sheep gave him confidence to stand against Goliath. Let it be known that David was a teenager when he brought down the head of Goliath.
I have met a couple of teenagers who are about to enter into the university but they have no clue what they want to be in life. They cannot express themselves wisely and have no preparation for the next stage of their lives. This is not right. Unfortunately, there are also some elders in this same boat! No one jumps into any place and succeeds, you must prepare or you fail. You cannot just stroll into the examination hall without adequate preparation. That is inviting failure before taking the examination.
There are powers that hinder people from entering their next level, particularly the breakthroughs that will announce them. These powers do not care about your age. As long as you are determined to be the first that will make a great achievement or you desire to continue in the trend of great things, they will rage against you.
God used the lion and the bear to prepare David for Goliath. God used the king’s portion to prepare Daniel for all the challenges he would meet in Babylon. God used the shepherding the flock to prepare Moses as a deliverer of God’s people.
Do not shy away from the battles and challenges in your life right now; Confront and conquer them. They are there to prepare you for greater responsibilities and greater glory. Become God’s battle axe today. Your goliath might be that exam, that unfriendly friend, that addiction, bad habit or weakness that keeps hindering you and making you feel guilty.
Arise today and go into that battle in the Name of the Lord and conquer. Prepare to win or delay and lose. It is up to you.
