Daily Word of Hope The Daily Word of Hope Devotional Bible Fact: There are 3,268 verses of fulfilled prophecy in the Bible. † The Scary Door † For forty days the Philistine came forward and took his stand, morning and evening. 1 Samuel 17:15–16 ESV Towering above everyone else, Goliath made his way out on to the battlefield and shouted insults again. The Israelite army again fled from before him. This scenario had been going on day after day, for forty days. You can bet the ones hiding from Goliath were praying: “Lord, kill this Giant! Do you hear what he is saying about you!” While the Lord was saying, I will as soon as one of you go out there. There are times when we pray for things and God takes care of it for us. Then there are other times that He gives us the ability to take care of it and nothing happens until we do. We can sit back and pray, Lord, kill this giant!, but nothing will change until we face the scary problem. Sometimes the scary door is the path to promotion. When David passed this test, he began to transition from shepherd boy to king. If you have something that you have been running from, and praying that God will take care of it for you, maybe you need to face it head on. Fear is an opposite of faith. Go and I will go with you (Ex 4:12). Sometimes God gives you the ability to be the answer. Share this on Facebook Yours in Christ, Dion Todd - Pastor/Servant
