Fight With What We Have
There have been many times as I sat thinking about spiritual warfare that I thought about, no, I longed to have the results that I read about in the scriptures. I want to slay the giant with his own sword. I wanted to hold out a staff and have even the swimming pool get a dent in the middle. But those things were not for me at that time. Why? David replied to this when he fought the giant and prevailed.
1 Samuel 17:32 And David said to Saul, Let no man’s heart fail because of him; thy servant will go and fight with this Philistine.
33 And Saul said to David, Thou art not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him: for thou art but a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.
34 And David said unto Saul, Thy servant kept his father’s sheep, and there came a lion, and a bear, and took a lamb out of the flock:
35 And I went out after him, and smote him, and delivered it out of his mouth: and when he arose against me, I caught him by his beard, and smote him, and slew him.
36 Thy servant slew both the lion and the bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he hath defied the armies of the living God.
37 David said moreover, The Lord that delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said unto David, Go, and the Lord be with thee.
David was able over time, with the help of Yahuah (Lord), to be able to build up to fighting the giant. WE can too. We just need to fight where we are with what we have against whom God places in front of us. He is on our side, and the battle is His. As this sinks in, We will advance in what we can fight.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. you are our King. We praise the name Yahuah! Send us today Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our sins. Heal us and deliver us, now that the end of year draws nigh. Deliver us before it ends. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.
