You got this!
We looked at part of Samson’s story and saw how he thought “I got this!”
He was wrong.
He looked at part of Peter’s story and saw how he thought “We got this!”
He was moving in the right direction but was wrong.
Today we will look at a young man, much like some of the young men here today.
A young man who thought “You got this!”
This young man was correct as he lived a life knowing that God was in control.
Daily Goliath would come out and challenge the Israelites.
Looking at Goliath and hearing his words they lost their courage and were terrified.
When our eyes are not on the Lord and we allow the words of the enemy influence us, we will also lose our courage and be terrified.
Graduates for many of you, you are stepping out on your own.
I totally understand.
I was 17 when I graduated and I was 18 for only a matter of days when I moved 900 miles away to take on the adventure that God had for me.
As you step out you will be bombarded by Goliaths at every turn.
You will hear lies daily that the enemy will throw at you.
Lies like...
you are too young
you are too late
you are too immature
You are just not ready
1 Samuel 17:32-
Saul told David that he was nor prepared and was too young.
If God has called you then, He’s got you!
Moses was 80 when God called to him from the burning bush.
David was a teenager when he killed Goliath
Lazarus was dead when God used him
So what is your excuse again?
1 Samuel 17:34
1 Samuel 17
Sounds very similar to parts of Samson’s story but there is a major difference...
David knew that God was in control.
1 Samuel 17:36-
God used David to rescue sheep his earthly father’s sheep.
Now God will use David to rescue His flock Israel.
As we continue in the story we read that David was given Saul’s armor but it was to big for him.
So David took his staff, he chose 5 smooth stones and put them in his shepherd’s bag.
He had his sling in hand and went straight to the battle.
Goliath looks over David and I could see him laughing when he saw this young man with no weapons of war, no armor.
Goliath basically says “You kidding me?
Really?
This is the best you got?”
David never listens to the lie of his enemy nor allows fear to creep in.
God didn’t give us a spirit of fear but a spirit of Power! ()
1 Samuel 17:45-
David takes Goliath’s sword and cut off his head.
David knew he must live life and face daily battles with the attitude of “You got this!” Knowing it was fully in God’s control.
Graduates of 2018, men that can hear my voice, women that are present and children that God loves and wants to use mightily.
Live knowing “You got this!”
Not you but God!
