Face Those Giants

Noting is too big for God. Nothing.

Did you know the Lord will save and protect us against our giants (problems)? Yep, that's right.

Those giants may look like hard times, pain, heartache, depression, sadness, anger, and I can go on and on, but you get my point. God will protect us against those things that come in our lives to cause havoc and chaos. He'll protect us against those giants -- those problems, circumstances, and challenges that come to destroy us.

We have to face them though.

We must fight. We can't cower down and let those giants defeat us. We can't put our heads under the blankets. We must fight our giants head on. It doesn't matter how big those Goliaths are. If David didn't face him, Goliath would have continued tormenting people and coming for them. He would have kept coming bolder and harder, because he thought nobody would ever fight him. He didn't think he would ever be taken out.

David's giants may have looked different than ours, but giants are giants and attacks are attacks. When we fight our giants, they will eventually fall. Just like David, we have to talk to the Lord God and He will tell us what to do. He will give us strategies and plans.

And we will win. Fight that giant. Fight that problem.

When everyone was afraid to fight Goliath, David stepped up. He told the commander: 'I can take this guy, because I used to keep sheep for my father. And when a lion or a bear came and took a lamb from the flock, I chased him down, attacked him and delivered that lamb out of his mouth. And if he tried to attack me, I caught him by his beard and killed him. The LORD saved me from the lion and bear and He will protect me from this giant, Goliath.'

So, way before David decided to fight Goliath, he was used to giants, he was used to the attacks and he was used to winning. His attitude was like, 'I got this giant, been there done that.' David knew God had his back and his thinking was, another giant?

Not a problem.

God blesses whomever he wants to bless, whenever he wants to bless them

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with blog post. When I was going through a dark time -- when I had nothing -- there was a certain person who helped me sometimes. She helped me whenever she basically felt like it, but she did help, and for that I'm appreciative. But, something interesting happened after I started growing out of my despair. Something interesting started happening when I no longer needed her for anything. And something interesting happened even though I remained kind and grateful towards. The interesting thing that happened was that she started hating on me. She started treating me differently. At first I was really bothered by it, because I thought she and her husband were nice people I wanted in my life. I liked that they had a sense of compassion and were interested in helping people who were down and low. That really appealed to me, because I was raised that way; my mother was raised that way; her mother was raised that way, and it goes back to as fa

Protecting My Peace - Day 96 - Disciplining Ourselves for Next Level Greatness

Click to listen to today's podcast episode. When it comes to next level greatness, we have to know that applies to us, not just everyone else. Do you know what God has for you? Do you? He has GREATNESS for you. Yes, YOU -- all of us. It's about doing what you can do and only you can do. You are the only one with your DNA -- none of us. is the same Yet, even when we're feeling down, discouraged, and out, those emotions are only temporary. None of us has it all together. Sometimes I procrastinate and put things off when I know I should be doing better. Yet, I am not as diligent and disciplined as I can be sometimes. Like when it comes to working out, I delay it, because I don't like it anymore. And although I love reading the bible, I haven't been reading it as often as I should lately. Yes, I, Sharon, the Faith Coach, do not do the things I'm supposed to do when I'm supposed to do them. And that my dear friends should not come as a shock to no one. It certa
