I remember watching a TV show years ago called, “Land of the Giants.” In it all the people were little and they faced giant people everywhere they went. He died walking between 2 buildings in Puerto Rico in 1978, falling 75 m to his death. People here have beaten that.
You know the story. OBSERVATION– A purpose makes you observe more around you. However, in your plans, you need to seek God’s plans not your own, so read the Bible daily, get godly advice and be ever open and listening to His guidance. The purpose, the cost, the course, the concentration and the charge! He put a helmet of bronze on his head and clothed him with a coat of mail, and David strapped his sword over his armor. Whoever does not bear his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple. The 4th stone to pick up is concentration… what are you concentrating on, what are you focusing on? However, having the right, positive mindset is a great start.
‘I come…in the name of the Lord.’ 1 Samuel 17:45 NKJV. Today is the today of breakthrough for you, for bringing down Goliath in your life. _____ was one of my Goliaths. This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged. Ultimately, you know you’re not living the fullness and freedom of life that God intends for you.
And never assume he’s dead when he’s just dazed. Faith is nothing without action. Vision for … There will be attack, there will be criticism at times, there will be people trying to undermine your faith as you reach for your dreams, but decide now that it is a price worth paying to defeat the giant, in bringing down Goliath . The 5th stone is to charge. After listening to Goliath’s threats every day, fear gripped the hearts of God’s people and they couldn’t stand up to him. Hidden within the vast resources of our minds is a tremendous ability to store and retrieve data, so complex that scientists still do not know all its capabilities. He possibly was, but was he overwhelmed? It was the first time he’d ever thought about that. Any problem you try to excuse or escape, you empower.
And there will be costs to count along the way. For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, whether he has enough to complete it?
EXPECTATION– A purpose causes your expectation to rise.
Yep, some here have faced that. It’s likely you have a giant in your life that is holding you captive, intimidating you, and stealing your joy.
Victory is all about trusting in Christ and not about trying to succeed.
In fact, He has already defeated the giants in your life. And many here have faced and defeated the same guy you face today. The epic tale of David and Goliath is one of the most well known stories in the Bible.
Then David said to Saul, “I cannot go with these, for I have not tested them.” So David put them off. Facing a giant in your life and confessing it isn’t there is fake faith, it’s flawed faith and ultimately it will let you down!
PLANNING– Having purpose causes us to plan more, and plan more carefully and effectively. He did not weaken in faith when he considered his own body, which was as good as dead (since he was about a hundred years old), or when he considered the barrenness of Sarah’s womb. As I struggled to learn faith years ago God showed me Abraham…. It’s always Jesus who brings the giant down.
David said, David said to Saul, “Let no man’s heart fail because of him.
“God told me to tell you to do what I want you to do.” As a pastor, even when I have a victory, someone feels compelled to tell me where I am wrong and how I should do it right, at least in their eyes.
David ran towards the giant, when everyone else had run away. This giant is big, he’s ugly and he’s in the way of your success.
We said last week that a great cause, a great purpose, a great vision for success can hold your commitment straight and true, even under severe attack!
Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword and with a spear and with a javelin, but I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.
Stay the course and trust God, not man and not someone’s personal agenda nd soon you’ll be bringing down Goliath.
Jesus has already overcome the enemy.
David tried Saul’s armour on, rejected it and approached the giant with just 5 stones and a sling shot. Much of it is encapsulated in godly words, and often it comes from sincere hearts. RISK– When you have a purpose, you’re suddenly prepared to risk more… we call it faith! What was he concentrating on when bringing down Goliath? Whatever your giant, people here have faced and beaten him, and they can help you do the same!
Maybe it’s a feeling of rejection.
If we construct a negative belief system concerning who we are, then we will act negatively. Jesus came to earth to crush the power of sin and death, and he has already overcome the enemy. There you will meet your Goliath who hates everything you love and is determined to ensure that you do not achieve anything of significance in the kingdom. If we keep God central, we will have an unbelievably positive mindset…. Weigh it carefully and realise that when you count the cost, when you weigh up the consequences of defeat by him, the resultant carnage makes you triumphing over him the only option. After listening to Goliath's threats every day, fear gripped the hearts of God's people and they couldn't stand up to him.
Give me a man, that we may fight together.” When Saul and all Israel heard these words of the Philistine, they were dismayed and greatly afraid.
Turn to 1 Samuel 17, and let me buzz through the story, much of which you would, know …, According to the Bible, Goliath stood over 3.2m tall, and wore heavy armour and had a big, nasty spear. Criticism, fear, depression, apathy, these can all be giants in your life. A persistent sin is a giant, lack of faith could be a giant.
David found Saul’s armour too big, too bulky and ill fitting. There are so many of us with giants in our lives. I remember Fiona going to church one day and someone asked her how her week was, and she replied, “Do you want faith or positive confession?” Some people really believe in positive confession to the point where is becomes fake it til you make it. He is an international speaker and worship leader and has toured all over the world, produced 8 albums and authored several books. In the same way, even though Jesus broke the power of Satan at the cross, he can still inject his deadly poison into our lives. When we focus on the pitfalls instead of the prize, we often fall. What major obstacle on the road to your dreams do you need to defeat? You’ll never walk into your destiny without defeating them, so today is the day we decide to take those suckers down. And my Bible says. What are some ways you go about drawing close to Jesus so that you won’t step on the venomous head of your defeated enemy?
One guy was bringing down Goliath, and then everybody did it! You get seriously ill, and your whole life becomes a series of doctor’s appointments and taking drugs on time.
It’s time to be bringing down Goliath in your life!
On one side of the Valley of Elah stands the Philistine army, with their nine-foot-tall champion named Goliath. So many of us see the giant, and so we concentrate not on the solution, but on the giant himself!
Have you been abused? Then Saul clothed David with his armor.
Over 80% of our income is from the freewill gifts of wonderful people just like you. However, one thing is clear: we view ourselves in light of what we believe to be true.
You’ve picked up the right stone! I’ve declared to you that my dream for Ignite is for it to grow, and as such we need to move from this building. You step out in faith to face the giant, and someone always says, “Hey, let me tell you how to do it!”.
Karl Wallenda was a world-famous tightrope walker, successful for many years. Perhaps you can relate to the plight of the Israelites. If you truly want to see victory over the giants in your life, you need to understand your dependency on the all-sufficiency of Jesus Christ. When we focus on the giant in front of us instead of the solution, we are destined to fall!
David, a lad visiting his brothers at the front, refused to be scared and said, For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?”.
Go for a permanent solution, not a short–term fix: (1) fortify yourself with prayer (2) renew your mind with the Word of God (3) reach for the support that’s available to you through your spiritual family. Jeremiah said, ‘This I call to mind…therefore I have hope: because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. Ignite is going to stay the course and keep serving God as He leads us to.
