Giant After Giant

There are days that our lives are smooth sailing.  There are those other days that are far from being smooth sailing.  When we face problems they can appear to us to be much larger than they really are.  I am guilty of looking at things and thinking that there is no way that I can make it through whatever it may be.

When we face these trials we can really relate them to the giants of king David’s day.  We seem to face more than one problem.  There were more than one giant.  Just like trials are a part of life so were the giants a part of life for God’s people for at least a certain amount of time.  A lot of times our problems seem so large to us.  When the spies returned from spying out the promised land they said that they saw themselves a grasshoppers in the eyes of the giants.  That makes them pretty big.

As long as we are alive on this earth problems will come our way.  Sometimes they will come wave upon wave.  Just like these giants, trials can seemingly come wave after wave.  We must keep our focus on God and His deliverance.  Look at II Samuel 21:22, “These four were born to the giant in Gath, and fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.”  I can imagine that it seemed like these giants would never be wiped out.  Yet, one day they were obliterated.

It is the same for us and trials.  One day trials will cease.  We will step out into eternity and I hope you are prepared for this.  If you do not know Jesus as your Saviour then contact me and get that settled quickly.  This way you can know for certain that heaven is your home and that Jesus is your Strong man who fights the battles for you.

So, how are you doing?
