What happens when we see giants?

Num 13
The "sight" of a giant will:
1. Bring fear

2. Make u belittle yourself

3. Make u assume they will belittle and dominate you

4. Make u discourage others based on your own fears

5. Make u lose faith in your God and have faith that they will conquer u

6. Make u forget God's promises to you

7. Will make u call God a liar
(God tells u that a certain job is for you and u don't even apply for it because u "think" there are others more qualified than u)

8. Remind yourself of how BIG the giant is and try to talk yourself out of fighting it

9. You will pay close attention to what the giant is "wearing" and what "weapons" it has

10. Others will Get upset at you for even thinking about fighting it

This all will happen before the giant even speaks one word.

The sight of a giant causes an internal battle against oneself and his faith

This is what u should do when u see a giant
1 sam 17
1. Remember who's side you are on

2. Remember where God has already delivered u from

3.Have faith and claim your victory even before u go to battle

4. U CANNOT fight a giant with someone else's covering or armor

5. U can only use the weapons that U are capable of weilding

6. Walk by faith and not by SIGHT, no matter how big and bad the situation (giant) looks

GOLIATH

Over 9ft tall

Just his armor and weapons totaled 150lbs

Had a huge shield (required someone to carry it for him)

What a giant does when he sees you

Belittle you
Base his victory on how you look not on who u serve
When he “sees” you his confidence will increase
He will have NO DOUBT in his mind that he will be victorious

Closing

We must look at giants (trials, etc) through God’s eyes and lean on His understanding

We must believe not only in God but also believe in ourselves that we can carry out God’s will (self-confidence)

If this is your first giant encounter and u have no past experience that God has brought u out from then read hebrews 11 and see how God delivers those who have faith

Finally we must fight giants with the word of God (our weapon) just as Jesus fought satan in the wilderness

A giant won't meet u on a mountain top. He will come to u when u are in a valley already.

Stop saying "I'm gonna hold my peace and let the lord fight my battle" sometimes we have to fight too
