“This day will the Lord deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcasses of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel” 1 Samuel 17:46 (King James Version of the Holy Bible).

David, the shepherd boy, was speaking prophetically in this verse about what would take place as a result of his confrontation with Goliath. It didn’t look likely that the giant could be killed by this young man. However, David was confident in his God. David wanted everyone to know that there is a God in Israel and that God was behind the victory that was about to happen.

Whatever you’re up against today, know that there is a God and He is not far away. He is present with you! You may be confronting a giant, but with God all things are possible regardless of how impossible the situation may appear.

Prayer: Lord, You know the way I take. Be with me every step. I am weak but You are strong!
