Goliath laid down a challenge to the Israel army and nobody in the army wanted a piece of the giant. Many of us can feel this same way when trial and tribulation comes our way. None of us want anything to do with undergoing trial and tribulation, right? Everybody wants it easy in life but the reality of life is that we are all going to have affliction. Yes, all of us will have giants that we will face in our life that will either defeat us or be defeated by us. I hope that you desire to go out and defeat your goliaths rather than cower in fear to them.

We as believers must understand what the will of the Father is. The Father’s will is for us to love one another; to encourage and persuade each other to move away from sin and to Him. Yes, we are to certainly care for ourselves. For example, if you’re starving then, yes, you probably should go and eat. For example, if you have bills to pay, you should pay those bills before you give to others. Yes, if you don’t have the ability to give, then there is absolutely nothing wrong with not giving. Let us remember, the Lord loves a cheerful giver.

So, what is your priority in life? Is it live for your own will or to live to do the Father’s will? Our food, what we should desire to do, is to carry out the Father’s will. All of us should move to live for each other. Yes, we are going to have to take care of ourselves but let us not live selfishly. Let us live to embrace each other in sincerity.
