David rose early in the morning now this is a deep point if you're going to be a giant
killer giant killers are disciplined if you're going to kill a giant you got to get up early
David got up early the day he killed Goliath come
on you're not going to kill your giants laying in bed hitting the snooze button
get up early in the morning and take care of the hard task get them out of the way first
don't let some job you have to do threaten you all day and make you dread the day be proactive don't
procrastinate to decide to delay is to decide to deny David decided he had to do something
against this problem right then and there nothing will happen until you face that giant
so if you want to be victorious you better take the fight to the enemy and you have
to discipline yourself and he rose up early giant killers get up early I don't mean you
got to get up at the crack of dawn but I do mean you put God first in your day and in your life
it takes discipline to kill Giants get out of the bed and read the Bible start the day off with the
word of God and in prayer and you see getting in the word and getting on your knees and seeking
the mind of God is a proven way to deal with any Goliath that comes into your life if I want to slay
I've got to pray
prayer is necessary because when I give it to God God can change things
God can help us slay the Giants remind yourself that the battle is the Lord's it's not just your
battle it's not just up to you it's not just your ability in all of life's battles listen
it's the Lord's battle don't think you are fighting alone the battle belongs to the Lord
see measure the giants you face against the greatness of your God don't measure against
yourself we're not enough of course we're not enough so I want to put God into the equation
it's not really a contest between the giant and me it's a contest between the giant and the Lord
and though I wouldn't stand a chance against the giant he doesn't stand a chance against the Lord
all giants seem larger than they really are you think you'll not be able
to get control over whatever that giant is it seems larger than it really is
it's not larger than our God it's not larger than your savior
remember these five words the battle is the Lord's the battle is the Lord's
there is no giant so great that he is not greater still and yes your giant may be big
but Jesus is bigger
I am not minimizing the giant in your life it is big Jesus is bigger Jesus is bigger
and this is why Luke 18 tells us that what is impossible for people is possible with God it
may feel impossible for you to take down your giant and you know what you're right
by yourself it is impossible for your giant to fall but in Jesus name it's time for you
to face him and move forward in life you've been running away from the Giant for too long
it's time to run toward the giant when's the last time you ran toward your giant
when's the last time you ran toward your problem when's the last time you said you know what
Goliath of anxiety you're not going to get me Goliath of despair you're not gonna get me
Goliath of the worst case scenario I'm not going to assume that I'm going to trust in the armies
of the living God and consequently you run in the direction with faith with courage because
you have listened to the voice of God how long since you ran towards your challenge rush your
giant with a God-saturated soul and God's word in your mouth giant of divorce you are not entering
my home giant of depression it may take me a while but you will not conquer me giant of alcohol giant
of bigotry you're going down how long since you loaded your sling and took a swing at your giant
Goliath was a dead man when we read in verse 40 that David ran towards Goliath at that moment he
started towards Goliath he was dead meat already faith is not talking about the giant faith is
taking the first step towards the giant to defeat your giant you're going to have to fight it's
going to be tough fight anyway it might be ugly fight anyway it might be difficult fight don't
wait for the giant to leave fight now fight today now if defeating your giant matters start now
that giant stands between you and health that giant stands between you and your purpose that
giant stands between you and your destiny that giant stands between you and your God-given
potential fight and what I want to say to you is your future is on the other side of the giant
that you are afraid to face so don't let your giant hide your future come on just because he
hasn't fallen yet doesn't mean he won't in Jesus name if you'll get up you'll find out it's not
as bad as you thought it was because the God in you is bigger than the giant in him but as long
as you stay down the enemy looks bigger than you are you have to get up giant killers get up
when you and I are facing challenges in life and some big Goliath faces us something that
we have a hard time with sometimes you know we never decide what we're going to do with it
as long as we don't resolve to do it and do it Goliath will still be out there whatever it may
be it may be a habit maybe a relationship maybe some some idea some attitude I don't
know what that Goliath may be in your life but he'll still remain there until you deal with it
I don't know who you are where you are in life and I don't know what what part of the journey
you are but you have to get to the place where you make up your mind that whatever I have to confront
whatever giant comes in my way it's gonna go down you make a decision to slay your giants not gonna
be intimidated any longer not going to be walking in fear and paranoid any longer you make
a decision to slay your giants your season will change now it's time for you to slay your giants
