Prayer Pointers - Week 7

For these few weeks, I felt God wanted me to share abt de story of David and how he beat Goliath.

Saul replied, "You are not able to go out against this Philistine and fight him; you are only a boy, and he has been a fighting man from his youth."

But David said to Saul, "Your servant has been keeping his father's sheep. When a lion or a bear came and carried off a sheep from the flock, I went after it, struck it and rescued the sheep from its mouth. When it turned on me, I seized it by its hair, struck it and killed it. Your servant has killed both the lion and the bear; this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, because he has defied the armies of the living God. The LORD who delivered me from the paw of the lion and the paw of the bear will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine."
Saul said to David, "Go, and the LORD be with you."

-1 Samuel 17:33-37,NIV

David is young, he's only a boy, and his enemy is a giant hu hav beaten many adults and has been a fighting man frm his youth. Aren't we also young? Aren't we all just children/juz became teens? And our enemy is Satan and de demons, Satan and his demons are obviously more powerful than us. Satan even beat adults, so are we able to fight our giant?

There is 1 thing tt u hav to noe, we are not fighting Satan alone. We are fighting with God's favour. How did David react to what Saul had said? Now, David he had faith in the Lord because he knows that the Lord will deliver him from Goliath. We hav to hav our faith in God. How? David, he made reference to his past victories that God had helped him win. Have your prayer been answered b4? Do u believe that God will answer these prayers of bringing revival and salvation in our classes?

This faith muz of course be backed up with action. Dun say I believe God will answer my prayers and dun pray. That doesn't make sense. Though we are young, like David, God's favour is with us, and tt's what matters, becuz onli god can defeat satan and his devils, not adults without God's favour. That's what we can learn frm David this wk.

The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me,
because the LORD has anointed me
to preach good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim freedom for the captives
and release from darkness for the prisoners,
to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor
and the day of vengeance of our God,
to comfort all who mourn,

-Isaiah 61:1-2,NIV
