Young men, make a difference...!

I Samuel 17:33, 36-37, 45 NKJV

And Saul said to David, “You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.” Your servant has killed both lion and bear; and this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, seeing he has defied the armies of the living God.” Moreover David said, “The Lord , who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, He will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine.” And Saul said to David, “Go, and the Lord be with you!” Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin. But I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.

Shalom! Day #104. Do you know that when a youth is amongst the "highly educated" Christians - who think that they know everything - when he or she says something, there is always a bunch of people from that group of "scholars" will always come against their opinions and their capability in doing something? Let's pray. Father, we humble ourselves before You, we pray, we claim Your promises that You will take us higher and deeper in You as we humble ourselves. In Jesus name we ask and pray. Amen!

The word of God in Joel 2:28 NKJV “And it shall come to pass afterward That I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your old men shall dream dreams, Your young men shall see visions. Young men, youth do not despise your youth, do not say who will listen to me, do not say I don't know how to speak, when you avail yourself to the Lord, you will see the extraordinary things God does through you. Be a young men that will make a difference in this rebellious generation. Be not a person who flows together with the current, but be bold and stand up and stand out of the crowds and make a difference. David saw an opportunity to make a difference in the midst of the unbelieving army. David looked into the impossibility, that there is and opportunity to create a possible real victory. People may despise you, but what the Lord has place into your heart, better do it. It doesn't matter what men would say, let them say, because they a bunch of speakers but no action.  Obey and do what God has placed in your hearts. When you obey and do, you shall witness an unlimited power of God working through you.

The secret of David is, God was with him. He realize that there is one and only one greater power and name, and he bind himself and bowed to that power and name and he fought the battle. God was his strength, his banner, his armour. He realize onething that none of the Israelite armed force realize. They have forgotten that the Lord was present there and that's why they did not dare to fight against Goliath. David made a difference. Be a generation that would make a difference in the midst of this generation knowing that the Lord of host is with you. Make a difference and be the difference!!!!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
