From Our Pastor's Desk
1st Samuel 17: 10-11 – “And the Philistine said, I defy the armies of Israel this day; give me a man, that we may fight together. When Saul and all Israel heard those words of the Philistine, they were dismayed, and greatly afraid”
Before any testimony there’s a test. Before any star there’s a scar. Before any promotion there’s an exam. And before any crown there’s a giant, to overcome.
For David, that giant is Goliath, on his way to the crown. For Jesus, it’s the cross. Everyone faces their Goliath on their way.
He taunts, He deceives, He attacks and His mission is to defeat one. Whatever Goliath you may be facing, His purpose is to destroy your life.
As God raises you up, elevates you, and crowns you as “king”, there are going to be challenges. One of those challenges is a Goliath challenge.
For some, Goliath may not be a physical giant, could be a sickness, disability...anything that threatens to stop us from becoming who God wants us to be.
For some it’s a habit, or someone/thing at our job stopping us from making progress. We can’t avoid Goliath; he is necessary to our growth as Christians.
Immediately David was anointed king, he was thrown into a massive life challenge. The anointing on your life will attract significantly great challenge.
Whenever God calls you & anoints you, He exposes you to a challenge. Are you ready to be crowned?
The King of all kingdoms will empower & strengthen us to become His representative here on earth, as crowned kings, in Jesus Name, in Jesus mighty Name. Amen.
You will have good success this 2022.
Remain blessed. Shalom.
