Giants Lived There

Giants Lived There

Obstacles. They stand between you and your dreams like hostile giants that hold everything you want in their hands. Overcoming these giants is the only way to your dream.

Whatever threatens your ability to reach your destiny is a giant that must be defeated. It may take the form of exams you must pass.  The hard work you must do. The difficult circumstances you are in that discourage you. The negative attitudes of people you must work with. The waiting time you must patiently endure. The capital you must raise. Whatever the case, you will have to dispossess some giant.  Fulfilled goals are in places where giants used to live.

In Bible-time, giants would not let the people of God pass through easily . You will also face stiff resistance. The Bible also records an old generation that did not see the promised land because they failed to trust God. However, as a new generation of God's people, you can displace the giants you face by faith, through prayer and appropriate action.

Remember this when you see the achievements of others - they had to contend with similar giants. They conquered even though they are just as human as you are. Look at the achievements you already hold. If you overcame in the past, you can overcome again. Please note, your most threatening obstacles are not external giants but those on the inside. These internal giants often require great perseverance and courage to slay. They come in the form of laziness, fear, doubt and sin - to name a few.

You might be asking... "Why does God not remove giants before I face or even see them?" Well, as proven time and time again, overcoming giants helps you to depend on God and know Him better. He wants to make you a giant killer - an over comer, just as He is . You cannot be one without ever killing some giants.  Victory is more valuable when you have participated in obtaining it.
