Goliath

Isaiah 54:14-17
14 In righteousness you will be established:
Tyranny will be far from you;
you will have nothing to fear.
Terror will be far removed;
it will not come near you.
15 If anyone does attack you, it will not be my doing;
whoever attacks you will surrender to you.
16 "See, it is I who created the blacksmith
who fans the coals into flame
and forges a weapon fit for its work.
And it is I who have created the destroyer to work havoc;
17 no weapon forged against you will prevail,
and you will refute every tongue that accuses you.
This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD,
and this is their vindication from me,"
declares the LORD.

Goliath

What do we do when we’re fighting Goliath?
Do we back down and go hide in a corner or do we throw the stone?
What do we do when someone we love is being caught in the hell of cocaine?
Are we allowed to be judgmental and just abandon that person in the dark?
Are we allowed to let drug dealers get away with their wickedness and destroy the lives of those we’ve seen grow before our eyes?
I believe not.
Jesus said not to be afraid of those that can kill the flesh, but of those that can destroy our soul.
Furthermore, He was a compassionate man. He helped those that came to him in need.
Something in his heart moved him to do it: it’s called unconditional love!
...
Is there someone that has recently come to you asking for help?
...
Is there someone in your life that lives in the world of drugs?
...
Would you be a light to this person and extend your helping hand?
Should you be a coward and let them rot and be destroyed by the enemy?
No, please do something for them. Be the Good Samaritan.
“What if?” you may ask, “that’s what they have chosen for themselves…?”
“What if?” I ask you, their so called 'choice' was really a deep need for love, YOUR love? Christ’s love?”
My dear friends, there’s a point in life when we simply cannot allow ourselves to do nothing…
A point where we’re called to fight for a cause greater than ourselves.
There’s a reason why God gave us Isaiah 54.

May HIS Love and HIS grace be with you today!

In Him,
Janet.
