Defeating Goliath

Defeating Goliath

Bible Text:
Proverbs 18:10 KJV
The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.



Defeating the enemy is the work of the Lord and not ours. Christ has won the grave, sin and death all at once while He was on earth. Hallelujah! This victory-mindset is what we should take into battles and confrontations of life. It is the name of the Strongest being in existence that sets us free from strongholds and strong men and all the forces of darkness. The name of Jesus Christ the Son of the Living God is a strong name. Taking refuge under Him guarantees total victory and safety from all harms and attacks.

Young David went to see his brethren at the battle field and soon realized that the enemy was a strong one but the LORD God of Israel was much stronger. This built up his confidence, remembering his testimonies over the beasts he slaughtered which attacked his sheep, and David took a stand & God gave him victory over Goliath and the Philistine armies. (Study 1 Samuel 17:1-58) David functioned from victory, and this is how Christ Jesus wants us His beloved, to approach matters that confronts us in life. Satan and his forces are defeated foes, and they operate through doubt, fears, ignorance and disobedience but only few believers have this knowledge. The whole Israeli armies were afraid of one man because they lacked the mindset of victors. 

Defeating Goliath is easy when you know your God, you can know Him by studying your Bible, meditating on the Word of God, praying with the Word and putting them into practice. Be a doer of the Word and you'll see and receive a massive turn around and victory.



PRAYER
• Heavenly Father, I thank you for your victorious name given to your church. By the mercies of the Lord I walk in victory. 
• Every Goliath standing against my life and family and peace, hear the word of God be stoned to death in Jesus name.
• I claim my victory and I possess new grounds in Jesus name.

INSIGHT
Always remember that the name of Jesus Christ is a strong name, a strong tower( a mighty defense). Let us run to Jesus this morning and seek His protection.

NEITHER HEIGHT NOR DEPTH

Date - December 28th, 2021 Topic - NEITHER HEIGHT NOR DEPTH Bible Text - For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. - Romans 8:38-39 Your parents love you. You may be able to do something that makes them angry, but you will never be able to do anything that makes them stop loving you. Try to imagine this kind of love and then multiply it by infinity. That’s the love that Jesus has for you. That’s the love that God has for you. God made you. He loved you enough to create you. He loved you enough to give you free will. Then he loved you enough to give you his Son. He loved you enough to forgive you for turning away from him. This is an impossible love! This is a love that we may never understand. But we don’t have to understand it. We just have to a

God's Security

DATE 27th January, 2023 TOPIC God's Security LIVING SCRIPTURE Exodus 13:21 KJV And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night: Security has been of prime importance to man after the fall of man from glory. The need for spiritual and physical security became a priority due to the rapid increase in crime and violence caused by man's sinful nature and the devil's influence on vulnerable souls. Some people go as far as fortifying themselves with charms and native concussion while other trust in gadgets and technology and the government to protect their lives and properties. And it was not so in the beginning when God created Adam and Eve. The Lord placed man in a garden (a peaceful serene environment) there was absolutely no reason to be afraid or the thought of thieves because the Lord was their security officer. Man fell and the hearts and intents of ma

Christ is not far!

DATE 22nd June, 2023 TOPIC Christ is not far! LIVING SCRIPTURE John 14:16-17 KJV And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;  [17] Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. Jesus Christ came to save us and that we might be one just as He and the Father in Heaven are one. He is not far from those who believe in Him and His words but still many look to the sky or climb high mountains to find the Lord who sits gloriously in our hearts by His Spirit and Words. His words says that the comforter will dwell (continually live in) you and not just that but He will also be with you. He is within and without us in covering and inspiration. Seek not Jesus that is far but He that is closer to your heart and by your confessions daily. TO-DO Call on Him this morning from your hearts and worship and fellowship in the
