Overcome Challenges in God's Strength

-

   Shepherd boy David's encounter and defeat of the ravenous lion and bear was preparing him for a far greater challenge... confronting and killing the evil giant, Goliath.

>>>>>>>> (1 Samuel 17:34-37) <<<<<<<



What are you facing today that is overwhelming?  Fight it in the strength of the Lord... and grow stronger for the next challenges to come.


"The Lord who delivered me from the paw of the lion and the paw of the bear will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine."  (1 Samuel 17:37)

How NOT to Be Consumed with Queenly Disappointment

It happens.   You are standing there in the spotlight.   Grasping tightly the hand of the other girl.   Waiting. Waiting. Waiting for the emcee to puh-lease announce the first runner up.   Because you know…if your name is not announced, then YOU are the newly crowned queen of the pageant!   Then, it happens.   You hear YOUR name.   Sudden disappointment engulfs your whole being.   From the follicle of the hairs on your head to the tips of your beautifully sculptured toenails.   “Nooooooo!  My name was not to be called!” you scream silently in your head.   All the work you’ve done.   All the time you’ve put in.   All the emotion spent getting to that moment on stage….and it wasn’t meant to be.    Well, I have wonderful news for you, my sister –  all is not lost!

The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of "truth" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For those who have accepted Jesus as their Savior (Eph. 2:8-9) (Rom. 3:23, 6:23, 10:9-10 & 13) (John 3:16), we have the Holy Spirit living in us. He is the Spirit of truth.  One part of this means that... we can know what "truth" is.  There is only ONE truth -- God's truth.  Outside of knowing God... we cannot know truth!  And in order to know God, we must know Jesus. (John 14:6)   >>> (John 14:16-17) - words of Jesus ... "...And I will ask the Father and he will give you another Counselor (Holy Spirit) to be with you forever -- the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SO, to know and see the " truth" of what is going on in our world... know Jesus. 💗 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~...
