David said to the Philistine, "You come against me with sword, spear and javelin, and I come against you in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of Israeli troops, you have challenged. " (1 Samuel 17:45)
Every day, a giant named Goliath came on the battlefield and put Israeli troops challenged to find a champion to face off in a duel that would decide the outcome of the war. Using his words, his armor and size, Goliath trying to intimidate Israel.
And it worked! Saul's army was responding to the confrontation with the giant of fear and helplessness. But David arrived on the scene and expressed his confidence in front of Goliath.
David did not place his confidence in himself, but in the Lord. He saw that the Lord's ability to deliver them was much stronger than that of the giant to destroy. "It's not really a struggle between the giant and me. It is a struggle between the giant and the Lord. And even if it is true that I have no chance of winning against the giant, it has none against the Lord. "David saw the conflict as an opportunity to glorify God.
WE WE JUST NEED A PERSPECTIVE ON THE GIANTS IN OUR LIVES.
We must detach our eyes to these issues to carry them, instead, to the Lord.
We must remember that God is for us and that 'It has all the resources of heaven at our disposal. By the power of the Lord, each of the giants in your life may fall. But we must make Him confidence.

Father, we thank You for being bigger than any of the giants to whom we may be facing. Help us to remind ourselves that the battle is not won with swords, spears and human wisdom, but with the power of the eternal God.
