Word For Today

God always fulfills His promises! He makes special promises to those who love Him. And each of us can walk daily in the right direction toward the fulfillment of the plans God has for our lives.

We can never have complete control over our own lives and plans. Sometimes, what may seem like a good idea today can turn into a bad one tomorrow. Moreover, how can we ever know that what we want is the same as what God wants? Even if you desire good things for your life, the Lord always knows what is best for you.

"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
Jeremiah 29:11

God's plans are greater than you can imagine! He has plans to bless you and not harm you. Trust your dreams into God's hands and allow Him to show and guide you on the best paths. Trust in His infinite love and immeasurable goodness!

If you believe in Jesus Christ and have dedicated your life to Him, God promises:

1. to always be with you,
2. to grant you a life of abundance,
3. and to give you eternal life!

He offers these things not because you deserve them, but because He loves you.

Do you want to receive these 3 promises from God, then all you need is to ask.

Some challenges seem too big, and some enemies too impossible to defeat. And if we depend on our own strength, it's true! But when facing the giant Goliath, David knew he wasn't fighting alone. His strength was in God.

⁴⁵ David said to the Philistine, “You come against me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the Lord Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.

⁴⁷ All those gathered here will know that it is not by sword or spear that the Lord saves; for the battle is the Lord’s, and he will give all of you into our hands.”
1 Samuel 17:45 and 47

David's strength came from the Lord God Almighty. David trusted that God would work and faced Goliath full of this confidence. Not only that, he didn't seek recognition or his own glory, but rather sought for God to be glorified through his actions.

Examine your heart today: how do you face the giants in your life? Do you do it with your own strength or do you go to God for him to fight for you? Do you trust that you will see the power of God in action and wait on him?

In the toughest moments, when it seems there's no way out, remember that you can always trust in God. He gives you the strength to overcome life's gigantic obstacles. Defeat the giants in your life with Jesus and for his glory!

Put your trust in God and you will overcome the giants!
