“You’ll never defeat the giant, unless
you first conquer the lion and the bear.”
1 Samuel 17:32-51
The Bible also teaches us:
That the God that we serve, the battle belongs to Him!
David had Confidence Over…
- The lion!
Verse 35 “and I went after him”
(Gamblers Anonymous, Celebrate Recovery, Food Bank The Learning Center)
Judges 14:8 says he is Strong, and destructive…
- The bear!
We can do either 1 or 2 things…
We can be like the children of Israel and retreat and hide
OR
be like David and attack the enemy!
“Ephesians 6:12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms”.
Concluding Thoughts: Mark 10:46-52
Perhaps some of you are wanting to quit today…
Let’s go the extra mile and conquer some bears and lions so we can conquer the giants.
