Fight The Giants In Your Life!
Giants” are problems, pressures, pains, and persecutions we will have to face from time to time in our lives.Challenges are what make life interesting; overcoming them is what makes life meaningful.Have you thought about the fact that Giants Are Real? Giants often times cause major difficulties in our life and brings with it the possibility of life threatening situations. More than likely, there are some people reading this message that are facing a ‘giant’ right now in their lives.
Now you may be wondering, what are some of the “Giants” that people face:There is the Giant of Resentment,There is the Giant of Fear.There is the Giant of Loneliness.There is the Giant of Guilt & Shame.There is the Giant of Worry.There is the Giant of Discouragement.There is the Giant of Jealousy.There is the Giant of Depression.There is the Giant of Hopelessness.There is the Giant of Bitterness.There is the Giant of Pride
There is the Giant of Selfishness.There is the Giant of Doubt,etc.We can say that these things and many other things like these oppose God.
You see, these things that I mentioned detour us; and drain us of being everything God intends for us to be. Therefore it goes without saying - “Giants” that are before us must be slain and removed.Fight the giant in your life.Let your fight be like David and Goliath for I know that with God on your side,you will conquer the giant.God bless you.

He wants to take you to the land of more than enough..
He will do the same for you. He wants to take you to the land of “more than enough,” a land of plenty of room flowing with increase, good breaks and opportunity. He wants you to live in a land where you not only have enough for yourself, but you’re so blessed that you can be a blessing to other people. Exodus 3:8, NIV said it all,“So I have come down to rescue them...and to bring them up out of that land into a good and spacious land.”
If you’re not in a good and spacious place today, the challenge is: don’t settle where you are.Don't give up the fight.Don't ever think of your age.He is bigger than every problem you are going through.You will make it. This is not your permanent address. It’s only temporary. Keep standing, keep believing, keep pressing forward and walk into the good and spacious land God has in store for you.God bless you.

He Can Make Provision in the Wilderness
The Scripture says,“I will open rivers in desolate heights, and fountains in the midst of the valleys; I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water.”(Isaiah 41:18, NKJV)
God is a God of abundance, He can make a way when we don’t see a way. Remember that God is no respecter of persons. Whatever you are believing for, whatever provision you need in the wilderness, know that He is faithful. He will provide streams in the desert and provision for you in every area of your life.Your week will be fruitful in Jesus Name,Amen.

Faith into Action!
No unbelief or distrust made him waver (doubtingly question) concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong and was empowered by faith as he gave praise and glory to God (Romans 4:20)
Do you know how powerful praise is? Praise is putting your faith into action. Just as putting your physical body into action makes it grow stronger, putting your faith into action through prayer and thanksgiving will cause it to grow strong, too.
I love what this verse says about Abraham: No unbelief made him waver regarding the promise of God. To waver actually means to go back and forth. It's a very unsteady posture. Spiritual wavering is when we go back and forth in believing the promises of God. Spiritual wavering shows up in our words and actions. When you speak contrary to God's promises, you are wavering and unsteady. Notice this verse didn't say that Abraham never had unbelief or doubting thoughts. It says that he didn't waiver–he didn't allow his words or actions to go against God no matter what he was thinking. He took captive every thought and stood strong through His praise and worship. See, praise makes you stable. It makes you strong. It's hard to be negative when you are singing a song of praise to Him.
Decide today to stand strong in worship. Put your faith into action with your words and watch what God will do on your behalf.God bless you.
