Giant
slayers can see what can be, not what is.
Did you know this is what the definition of FAITH is? (Heb 11-1) Faith is believing what you cannot
see. God is bigger than your
problems. God is bigger than your giant
so that giant doesn’t seem as big anymore.
What is your giant? Is it financial,
broken heart, illness? They seem to be
impossible to beat. The question is NOT
can you see your giant right now, the question is, can you see God? J. Oswald Sanders wrote this, “Eyes that look
are common, eyes that see are rare.”
It’s important that when you are facing your giant, that you start seeing God and stop looking at the giant. That’s not denial, it is bringing reality in the situation that other people are dealing with, they’re only dealing with what they can see with their physical eyes, you also need to see with your spiritual eyes, don’t ignore the giant, just put it in perspective to the spiritual presence YOUR God.
We’re not talking about living in denial, we’re talking about living with all our senses alive. Don’t disregard your five senses, just give God the opportunity to vote on what happens in your life. Because the bible says, “greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world!” Let’s bring God into the battle when we go against the giant! Why go on our own? Why only deal with the five senses, why not do what David says, you come against me with all of the things everybody else depends upon and is afraid of, I have full knowledge of what you have but I also have full knowledge of what I have but I come against this giant in the name of the almighty God, and I’ll knock you down!” David saw the target, not the giant. When you’re afraid, you can’t think clearly, but when you put your confidence in God you will never be afraid. (continued tomorrow)
