Giant Killer or Grasshopper?
Deut 28. 13 shows us that we can live on either side of the spectrum, victor or victim; triumph or self pity; Faith confession or excuse. How you view yourself is how you relate to God. David was a giant killer at age 16 in 1 Sam 17. He came in the name of the Lord because he was conquered by Calvary. There was no room in his soul to be conquered by fear; he had surrendered his will to the Lords Will. Ten of the twelve spies saw themselves as grasshoppers in the sight of the giants of Anak in Num 13:33. God had promised the land but natural thinking brought in doubt and intimidation. A man who has intimacy with God is not intimidated by man. His heart is full of pleasant riches in Prov 24:4. Loneliness flees away in the assurance that God is present every moment. What is standing in front of you today? Find 5 smooth stones and swing your sling of faith and watch paradigms change.
