Word of the Day: Overcome the giants in your life with Jesus
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!

they shall be like wool.

Don't reject God's love; don't delay in approaching Him to receive His forgiveness.
My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit;
a broken and contrite heart
you, God, will not despise.
Psalm 51:17

Word of the Day: Let God's grace transform your life
Grace means undeserved favor. We do not deserve God's kindness, because we all have sinned, but still, He loves us and wants the best for us! That's grace. By His grace, God sent Jesus to save us and give us a blessed life, free from sin. And all we have to do is accept this gift, given freely.
8 For it is by grace you have been saved,through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - 9 not by works, so that no one can boast.
Ephesians 2:8-9
Do you want to see God's grace in your life? Then open your heart today and accept the gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. He gave His life on the cross for you out of love and wants you to acknowledge your need for His love and forgiveness. With Him in your life, you will have peace with God for all eternity.
If you already have Christ in your heart, decide to share His gift of grace with everyone around you. Carry God's Love wherever you go. Help the needy, bring joy to the suffering, share what God has given you. Let others see how God's grace has transformed you and live for His glory.
