We All Have Trials In Life. We All, At Some Point Have Been In A Situation Where The Situation We Are In Seems More Than We Can Handle Or Bear n The Task At Hand Seems Impossible. Everyone Has Been There At One Point n' If By Chance You Haven't Yet, Listen Very Closely ... One Of The Things Satan LOVES To Do Is To Let You Go Along n Have A Carefree " Oh, This Is A Breeze. I Love Living On Easy Street " Frame Of Mind Regarding Life n Then Out Of Nowhere When You're Not Expecting It ...WHAM! He's Right In Front Of You ... And He Snickers And Looks At You, Grinning Ear To Ear " Hello, Buddy, Ol' Schmuck ... Remember Me? "
None Of Y'All Can Tell Me You Haven't Been There. You Have Been In One Way Or Another. I Will Say Right Here n' Now I Have. Once Upon A Time About 14 Years Ago I Was Informed By A Relative That We Might Be Moving To A Different State. I Was In A Job At The Time Where I Didn't Make Much Money, So I Had To Scrimp n Save. So ... For 13 Years That's What I Did. On September 1, 2025 I Had Saved Up $5,000 n On September 30, 2025 We Left The State I Lived In n Moved Across The Country. The Move Ate Up $1,100 Of The Money. When We Arrived More Stuff Materialized That Required Me To Use More Of That Money That I Didn't Want To Use. I Wanted To Use The Money To Get Into My Own Place In The Part Of The Country I Moved To.
So, The More These Things Happened n' I Had To ' Dip Into My Apartment / House Money, The More Upset / Frustrated I Became ... Because I Knew It Took Me Thirteen Years To Save Up $5,000 n I Knew I Wouldn't Be Able To Get Another Sum Of Money To Replace It Quick. So This Kind Of Became Like Goliath. I'm Like " Well, I Started Out With $5,000 .... $1,100 To Move Here Leaves $3,900. Then Christmas Happened ... n' I Was Generous So, Now It's $892. So, Now, I Kind Of Have This Goliath To Deal With ... Because Move In Costs For A Place These Days Is Ballpark $3,000 n I Only Have $892.
I Can Hear Satan Laughing At Me, Right? " Aaaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
You Spent 13 Years Saving Up Your Money To Get Your Own Place n' For What? It's All Gone!
Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
You're Gonna Live At Home With Mommy Til She Dies ... You're A Loser!
Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! "
So I Tell Him, " Yeah, Yeah ... I Know. But Jesus Gave His Life On The Cross So That All Of The Losers Could Live .... " Then I Start To Laugh .... " So Death, Where Is Your Sting? Grave Where Is Your Victory? The Power Of Death Is Dead .. Jesus Is At The Right Hand Of The Father n' The Clock Is Winding Down, Butthead. Soon n' Very Soon Jesus Will Be In The Sky n You're Gonna Burn, Baby, Burn! For Eternity. Oh, No! That's Not Gonna Feel So Good! Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
As Far As The Money I Need ... Yaweh Yireh Dude. Now Get Lost, Satan In The Name Of JESUS! "
For Those Of You Who Are Reading This Who May Not Know, Yaweh Yirah Is A Name For God, Which In Hebrew Means God Will Provide
So Now, My Question To You Is What Goliath Are You Facing? We Are All Facing One Of Some Sort.
In 1 Samuel Chapter 16 David Was Facing One About 9 Foot Tall ( If My Sources Are Correct ).
David Stepped Forward From The Israelites To Face Goliath The Philistine With Nothing More Than A Slingshot n' Stone ... And His Faith. So, What Happened? Well, David Slew Goliath With The Slingshot & The Stone ... Whacked Him Square In The Forehead. Eventually David Became King Of Israel ... And It Was From The House Of David Jesus Was Descended From ( Through Joseph ).
So, What Giant Are You Facing? Maybe It's Satan Himself. You Are Ready To Surrender Yourself n' Say " Yes Lord, I Am A Sinner n I Need YOU! Come Into My Heart! Be My Savior. Jesus Take The Wheel." Satan Is Stanfding There ...' Oh No! Not So Fast. Don't Be A Sissy. You Don't Need God '
n' You Just Can't Seem To Get Past It n Get Satan To Shut His Trap Long Enough For You To Cry Out
" Jesus I Don't Want To Go To Hell! Come Into My Heart n Be Savior! " Trust Me ... Satan LOVES Doing That To People ... Because If He Had His Way Every Human Being That Has Ever Existed ...
From Adam n Eve Right Up To The Last Baby Born Before God Destroys The Earth Would Burn In Hell With Him For Eternity.
Maybe Your Goliath Is Money. You Made Some REALLY POOR Financial Choices n You Woke Up Recently n Found Your Debt To Income Ratio Is ... Well Now You're Hyperventalating And Having This Meltdown Of Sorts Wondering How You're Going To Get Out Of It n ... Here Is Some Advice :
Make Sure You Have A Mustard Seed. That Is All It Takes. The Mustard Seed Is 1/32 to 3/32 inches in diameter. Jesus Once Said Faith The Size Of A Mustard Seed Could Enable You To Move A Mountain
( Matthew 17 : 20 ).
It Matters Not What Your Goliath Is ... You Go To God With Your Mustard Seed n You Say, " Lord This Is What I Am Facing n' I Can't Do It By Myself And These Are The Circumstances ... And Goliath Won't Go Away n Leave Me Alone ... And My World Is Falling Apart And ...." God Sees The Mustard Seed n ' Says " Okay. I See The Mustard Seed. If I Don't Make The Problem Disappear, I Will Be With You Through It n Sustain You ... I Will Be Your Fourth Man In The Fire. " Why? Because Jesus LOVES
His Father's Creation. Before ANYTHING Was Created Jesus Agrred To Leave His Throne ... His Place In The Heavenly Realms ... To Come To Earth n Die In Our Place So That We Could Be With Him For Eternity. So, It Makes Sense That Goliath Comes Along n Says " You're Next, Smiley " Jesus Looks At You n' Says, " Don't Be Afraid, For I Am With You. Take Heart! I Have Overcome The World. " That Should Embolden You. It Brings Me Hope ... To Know That I Am Not Alone In My Struggles ... To Know That There Is A God Who I Can Rely On Who Is Fighting With Me n For Me
I Pray It Brings You Hope As Well, My Suscribers n Visitors. You All Are In My Thoughts And Prayers ...
