1 Samuel 17:36-37 (NLT): "I have done this to both lions and bears, and I'll do it to this pagan Philistine, too, for he has defied the armies of the living God! The Lord Who rescued me from the claws of the lion and the bear will rescue me from this Philistine!"

What's more - His victorious, overcoming Spirit lives within us! There is a never ending supply of wisdom, strength and power available for us to triumph every time! As you choose to enter into the Presence of your God, seek His wisdom and His perspective. Divine insight and strategy will enter your mind, and His glorious peace will flood your soul.
