Giant killing.
There are people today that are facing their toughest battle. You may be one of them.
What’s it going to take to kill the giant?
Knowing you are CHOSEN – A Staff
The staff was a branch of wood that had been stretched and shaped, it was made of hard wood, weather-beaten, it had seen life.
The staff would represent who that man was, his status and authority. In a sense he didn’t choose his staff, he was chosen for the staff. To know you are a chosen vessel in the hands of God is the first step in killing your giant.
“You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit – fruit that will last.” John 15:16
Be willing to submit to the shaping of God in your life. You may go through some hard times or you may find yourself in new situations that cause for you to do something you have never done before. All this is to stretch and extend you.
The chosen, submissive life is:
a) a life that will not sit back but be actively involved in doing what cannot be done in your own strength. “Take this staff in your hand so you can perform miraculous signs with it.” Exodus 4:17;
b) in believing for breakthough in impossibilities, “Raise your staff and stretch out your hand over the sea to divide the water” Exodus 14: 16;
c) in causing others to be refreshed, “Take in your hand the staff with which you struck the Nile, and go. I will stand there before you by the rock at Horeb. Strike the rock, and water will come out of it for the people to drink.” Exodus 17:5-6;
d) in opening heaven so that the enemy is defeated, “Tomorrow I will stand on top of the hill with the staff of God in my hands… As long as Moses held up his hands, the Israelites were winning .. So Joshua overcame the Amalekite army with the sword.” Exodus 17:10-16
YOU ARE CHOSEN.
