Facing the Giants / Înfruntând uriașii
"And if we win, we praise Him; and if we lose we praise Him. Either way. We honor Him with our actions and our attitudes." ( Coach Grant)
"If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord." (Romans 14:8)
"With God, nothing is impossible." (Luke 1:37)
"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." (Hebrew 11:1)

David vs. Goliath
"A champion named Goliath, who was from Gath, came out of the Philistine camp. His height was six cubits and a span. He had a bronze helmet on his head and wore a coat of scale armor of bronze weighing five thousand shekels; 6 on his legs he wore bronze greaves, and a bronze javelin was slung on his back. His spear shaft was like a weaver’s rod, and its iron point weighed six hundred shekels. His shield bearer went ahead of him.
Goliath stood and shouted to the ranks of Israel, “Why do you come out and line up for battle?[...]
Then the Philistine said, “This day I defy the armies of Israel![...]
Now David was the son of an Ephrathite named Jesse, who was from Bethlehem in Judah. Jesse had eight sons, and in Saul’s time he was very old. Jesse’s three oldest sons had followed Saul to the war: The firstborn was Eliab; the second, Abinadab; and the third, Shammah. David was the youngest. The three oldest followed Saul, but David went back and forth from Saul to tend his father’s sheep at Bethlehem.[...]
Then Saul dressed David in his own tunic. He put a coat of armor on him and a bronze helmet on his head. David fastened on his sword over the tunic and tried walking around, because he was not used to them.
“I cannot go in these,” he said to Saul, “because I am not used to them.” So he took them off. Then he took his staff in his hand, chose five smooth stones from the stream, put them in the pouch of his shepherd’s bag and, with his sling in his hand, approached the Philistine.
David said to the Philistine, “You come against me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the Lord Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. This day the Lord will deliver you into my hands, and I’ll strike you down and cut off your head. This very day I will give the carcasses of the Philistine army to the birds and the wild animals, and the whole world will know that there is a God in Israel. All those gathered here will know that it is not by sword or spear that the Lord saves; for the battle is the Lord’s, and he will give all of you into our hands.”
As the Philistine moved closer to attack him, David ran quickly toward the battle line to meet him. Reaching into his bag and taking out a stone, he slung it and struck the Philistine on the forehead. The stone sank into his forehead, and he fell facedown on the ground.
So David triumphed over the Philistine with a sling and a stone; without a sword in his hand he struck down the Philistine and killed him. (1 Samuel 18)

God is Our Safety

“You are a shield around me, O LORD, my Glorious One, who lifts up my head.” Psalm 3:4
We live in a world of great unrest: riots and terrorist attacks in many places, train bombings and shootings in broad daylight…How can we feel safe?
Late in his reign King David, was forced to flee for his life from Jerusalem because of a revolt led by his rebellious and arrogant son Absalom and a host of traitors. He could have trusted his army to protect him and defeat Absalom but instead He trusted God. “You are a shield around me, O LORD, my Glorious One, who lifts up my head,” he wrote.
Even at night, in the wide open desert without concrete walls around him and a comfortable bed, David was able to sleep. In the morning, he may have shaken his head in surprise as he said, “even here I lie down and sleep; I wake again, because the LORD sustains me.”
The fact that God was His protection was very real to King David for he often wrote about it in the Psalms. “My God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation. He is my stronghold, my refuge and my savior—from violent men you save me. You give me your shield of victory; you stoop down to make me great.”
(2 Samuel 22: 3, 36).
(2 Samuel 22: 3, 36).
Those comforting words are also for us. During times when we feel vulnerable we can say with David, “My shield is God Most High, who saves the upright in heart” (Psalm 7:10). “He is my loving God and my fortress, my stronghold and my deliverer, my shield, in whom I take refuge” (Psalm 144:2).
For a shield to do any good we must use it. We must dwell in the fortress (God) and take up His shield. “Take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one,” Paul tells us in Ephesians 6:16.
Dear Father, we thank you that you are greater than anything that could harm us. We trust in your protection and deliverance.

Psalmul 115 " Increde-te in Domnul !
Psalmul 115 " Increde-te in Domnul !
" Dumnezeul nostru este în cer, El face tot ce vrea. "
1 Nu nouă, Doamne, nu nouă, ci Numelui Tău dă slavă pentru bunătatea Ta, pentru credincioşia Ta!
2 Pentruce că zică neamurile: ,,Unde este Dumnezeul lor?``
3 Dumnezeul nostru este în cer, El face tot ce vrea.
4 Idolii lor sînt argint şi aur, făcuţi de mîni omeneşti.
5 Au gură, dar nu vorbesc, au ochi, dar nu văd,
6 au urechi, dar n'aud, au nas, dar nu miroase,
7 au mîni, dar nu pipăie, picioare, dar nu merg; nu scot niciun sunet din gîtlejul lor.
8 Ca ei sînt cei ce -i fac; toţi cei ce se încred în ei.
9 Israele, încrede-te în Domnul! El este ajutorul şi scutul lor.
10 Casa lui Aaron, încrede-te în Domnul! El este ajutorul şi scutul lor.
11 Cei ce vă temeţi de Domnul, încredeţi-vă în Domnul! El este ajutorul şi scutul lor.
12 Domnul Şi-aduce aminte de noi: El va binecuvînta, va binecuvînta casa lui Israel, va binecuvînta casa lui Aaron,
13 va binecuvînta pe cei ce se tem de Domnul, pe cei mici şi pe cei mari.
14 Domnul să vă înmulţească tot mai mult, pe voi şi pe copiii voştri!
15 Fiţi binecuvîntaţi de Domnul, care a făcut cerurile şi pămîntul!
16 Cerurile sînt ale Domnului, dar pămîntul l -a dat fiilor oamenilor.
17 Nu morţii laudă pe Domnul, şi nici vreunul din cei ce se pogoară în locul tăcerii,
18 ci noi, noi vom binecuvînta pe Domnul, deacum şi pînă în veac. Lăudaţi pe Domnul!
