Preparing for the long haul
We all know the story of David of Goliath
With one stone he brings the giant down
So why did he grab five stones?
He had learned some lessons from his past battles
He rescued the sheep from the mouth of the lion, and then had to fight the lion as well
Winning one battle doesn’t mean there isn’t another on its way
The only assurance he expresses to Saul was that God would grant him the victory, he never claims to know how or when
He had made up in his mind that if the first stone didn’t work, he wasn’t going to quit - he was going to load another one.
And another.
And another.
The greatest number of rounds was 276 in 4 hr 30 min when Jack Jones beat Patsy Tunney in Cheshire in 1825.
Before the Queensbery Rules were introduced in 1867 each round of a fight would last until someone was knocked down.
At that point the fighters would go back to their corners and then the fight would start again.
We have to persevere.
It’s not about knowing what the outcome will be or when we’ll get there, it’s about not giving up until you get what you need
He didn’t let go until he got what he needed!
Daniel didn’t plan a 21 day fast, it took 21 days for the angel to get to him
We use Paul’s excuse for ourselves whenever we think we’re supposed to just live with something, but he prayed about it until God told him His grace was sufficient.
