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.

MARY, DID YOU KNOW?

Date - December 19th, 2021 Topic - MARY, DID YOU KNOW? Bible Text - But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God. You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus.” - Luke 1:30-31 If God had asked the women of Israel who wanted to be the mother of the Messiah, every one of them would have raised her hand. If they had known what that privilege would actually involve—becoming pregnant before marriage, enduring terrible gossip, watching helplessly as their Son was mocked, ridiculed, tortured and crucified—those hands would have come down in a hurry. Mary certainly didn’t volunteer for the job. And she was stunned to discover she’d been selected for such an important role. She handled the extraordinary situation with grace and humility. She asked one question to help her understand God’s plan, then agreed to it immediately. God has a plan for each of us. Ours may not be as earth-shattering as Mary’s. Ou...

Inside Jesus

DATE 28th June, 2023 TOPIC Inside Jesus LIVING SCRIPTURE John 15:4 KJV Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. Inside Jesus Christ the Lamb of God is where we must dwell. Just like a baby is carried in the womb of her mother for months, so must all God's children follow. The anchor scripture reveals that we must abide inside the cleft or riven side of Jesus Christ just as He also dwells inside us. No child of God or minister should ever think that he or she is sufficient or has attained a certain height in Christ Jesus to stand alone or even abide by themselves.  Our productivity of bearing fruits in this world either by evangelism, good deeds, love or any action can only be possible when we are intimate with Christ as He is with us. Without Christ Jesus inside us we cannot or it is impossible to grow spiritually and physically. Inside Christ Jesus contains all life's resources and...

NOW

Date 📅 18th October, 2022 Topic NOW Living Scripture Hebrews 11:1,7 KJV Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. [7] By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith. Now we begin to walk in the ways of faith and truth as our fathers in faith and mighty men of old and just as they witnessed the glory of God first hand so shall we if we act now. The perfect example is Noah and the ark, a man of grace and wisdom. The world was stained with disobedience, sinful ways and thick immoralities. And God decided to wipe the inhabitants of the earth with a great flood such as have never been before and even after. The heavens where ready to open the flood gates and the earth to let out her waters. When God spoke to Noah, he acted immediately and finished the ark on time and he eva...
