Remember Your Track Record
Your servant has killed both lion and bear; and this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, seeing he has defied the armies of the living God." (1 Samuel 17:36)
When you have a problem to solve or a major decision to make, it would be wise to look back over your track record. What happened the last time you were in a similar situation? How was your last problem solved? How did God show up to help you?
David was confident he could kill Goliath based on his track record. He had already killed a lion. That was a major accomplishment indeed! David had also killed a bear. Another major accomplishment! In other words, David had established a track record. Next in the line of progression was to overcome an uncircumcised Philistine named Goliath.
David knew not only his own track record, but he was also aware of God's track record. He strongly believed that since God delivered him out of the paw of the lion and out of the paw of the bear He would also deliver him out of the hand of Goliath.
When we are faced with our own giants, we must remember our track record and God's track record. If God has ever delivered you before, it is no doubt God will deliver you again and again and again!
Let's thank God for our track record. Let's thank God for His track record!
