"Who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies ofthe living God?"(1 Samuel 17:26)You may be facing a giant today. He may be a giant of sickness orfailure, of financial shortage or another kind of trouble. But don't lethim scare you. You have a secret weapon. A weapon that once turned ashepherd boy into a bear-busting, lion-killing, giant-slaying champion.That weapon was a blood covenant with Almighty God.Back in David's day, circumcision was the sign of that covenant. So,when he called Goliath uncircumcised, David was saying: This guy may bea giant; he may be strong; but he has no covenant with God and that'swhy I can kill him.Like David, you, too, have a covenant. But yours is better. The covenantDavid had offered a wealth of blessings to those who kept it, but italso included curses for those who broke it.Yours doesn't. Yours is a New Covenant that Jesus bought with His ownblood. It doesn't depend on your ability. It depends on Him and what Hehas already done. He has done it all! All you have to do is believe itand receive it.Right now, read Deuteronomy 28:16-68. That's a list of the curses Christhas freed you from. You might even call it a list of the giants Jesushas already slain for you. It contains every diabolical thing the devilcould ever use to destroy you.Read it and rejoice. God has healed you and delivered you from thosethings!Don't let any giant intimidate you. You have a blood covenant withAlmighty God. There's no uncircumcised circumstance on the face of thisearth that can take your victory away from you.Scripture Study:Galatians 3:13-29
