Dave Edlers Ramblings

The giants in life take many forms. They are powerfully built. They are positioned against us. Determined to destroy us. Each of us without much thought can start to name them. The things we battle against. The things we have determined oppose our prosperity. The giants.
David is facing the Philistine, the giant, and declares; “This day the LORD will deliver you up into my hands, and I will strike you down and remove your head from you.” And then he walks out and does just that. Takes his smooth stone, puts it in his sling, lets it fly, strikes down the giant. There is so much there for us to learn. Here is what it says to me today, every time I read the Word of God I get something new, but here is what I needed to see and hear today: First, make the declaration, speak to the giant the truth of who is for you, the living God. Second, walk out, stop hiding, quit not facing your giant, walk out, take him on. Third, load up, be prepared. Pray, study, get yourself ready for the battle. Fourth, let it fly. Take no prisoners, unleash the onslaught. Jesus declared that nothing is impossible for those who love and follow Him. He declared we would trample on snakes and scorpions. That we would defeat the giants. Let it fly!
