“I think about all of our battles in life and at how sometimes they come in ways we’ve never even imagined that they would..Amen..and when they do at times it takes you down to the very end of who you are..Amen..it takes you to this place as to where your faith and your confidence has to be in the Lord..it cannot be in anyone else other than the Lord..Amen..because in these times of testing and of battles you gotta know that you know who Jesus is..Praise the Lord..and this morning it takes me to David in the bible as to where he went to take his brothers who were solider’s their lunch..Amen..and as he gets to the place there was all of these men those mighty men of God hiding back away from Goliath..the big giant who stood before them all taunting them to come and to battle him..for he was coming up against the men of God..and David being of a small stature says to the men Israel who is this uncircumcised Philistine that he should defy the armies of the living God?..Amen..long story short..David defeated that Giant and took his head completely off..1 Samuel 17:17-51..Praise the Lord..because never forget that Victory is ours in the Lord..Amen!”

“David did not listen to the naysayers..he did not pay attention to the negative comments from his brothers and the other solider’s that were there with King Saul..he stood tall and he remembered the hands of God and at how many times God had stood with him as he defeated the lion and the bear..Praise the Lord..and he went forth in confidence in Christ..not in people..not in men..but in the name that is above every name..the name of the Lord our God..the mighty King of Kings..Amen..so today you may be in a battle but I would declare over us all..to remember the goodness of the Lord in the land of living..remember Gods faithfulness to you and your life..and remember all of the times He came forth for you and your life..Amen..for He is the same God today as He was than..for at times we remember the things we should forget and we forget the things we should remember..Amen..but today know that we believe..we wait..we have faith..and we will receive our victories..Praise the Lord..for the battle it does truly belong to the Lord..and He is the great Victor over ALL..Amen..for I like to say my God can do anything, anywhere and anytime that He alone chooses..for He alone is God..Praise the Lord..so He is for you..and He is not against you..Jeremiah 29:11..and He does work ALL things together for our good..Romans 8:28..Amen..for it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi ❤
