Use Right weapon for the right Battle

                                                                      

In the book of judges Israelites they had a fight against their enemies, they said lets face them as we did last time, it mean that let us use again in this battle the same techniques which we used last time to defeat our enemies. As a results bible said they were defeated.
       
               For any Man of GOD who wants to be the hero in any battle ahead of him he suppose to use new techniques for every new battle ahead. GOD enabled David to defeat his enemies all the times because David knew this secret. Once David met with the lion 1sam 17:36 due to the surroundings of that battle in the bush he didint had any time to prepare for it, therefore he didn’t had any weapon to carry on his hands, but he knew that at that moment his hands were the only strong weapon to give him victory on that battle. He entered unto it and utilized his hands accordingly at last victory came on his side.
       
               As Christians we should know exactly which weapon or techniques we have to use for the type of battle ahead, simply i can say Christians we have to know the “Right weapon for the right Battle”. So far not always the same weapons are suitable for the same battles, and also not all weapons are suitable for all battles. There some battles we encountered in 2010 and through personal prayers, advices from our friends, fasting, or Speaking unto them they went away. In this 2011 we can face them again and you may find that those above weapons they might not chase the problem. The problem can be chased by other weapons like Prayers from servants of GOD, reading Bible and getting revelations etc.
        
                The point were David has to fight against Goliath, he knew that is the point were he has to change gear in his new fight. Morphologically Goliath was so much stronger than him, so David he could not fight and won Goliath with his empty hands as he did to lion. Here he change the technique he face goliath with

                 a)Strong Faith upon the power of army of GOD. 1sam 17:26b (for who is this uncircumcised Philistine that he should defy the armies of the living GOD?). Here David believed NO one can stand and defeat the Power of ALMIGHTY GOD, remember he ha been raised by Manase who testified to him the way GOD did to Moses, Gideon, Elijah, Jeftah, also  the way GOD rescued him from the hands of lion and bear was enough catalyst to know even upon this battle the Living GOD will be on my side that why he said those words in 1sam17.37.
                 b)He took up five smooth stones and sling on his hand because he knew to defeat Goliath he doesn’t need to come a close to him as he did to lion an a bear.

Finally we see David brought joy to heaven and Israelites because in each battle ahead of him he utilized right weapon. He became the first king of Israel who won each battle he entered.

Apart from David, Bible shows the way servants of GOD used to raise the dead. In
1king 17:21-22 the way Elijah brought back the life of that son is very different with the way JESUS did in Luk 7:14.Therefore each battle has got it unique way to concur it.


       Now GOD has blessed us with this year of 2011 not because we are so much better and wiser than the dead one, but he has given each of us new number of responsibilities to accomplish for his Kingdom within 12months and leaves the dead one. The question is that “will i be faithful to him by accomplishing my tasks within a time and without excuses?”.
      By the GRACE of GOD in this 2011 lets be committed to him in a new way and he will provide new techniques for every battle ahead of us. Remember once we use former techniques for a new battle we will end up failing, and even if we will win, the victory will be minor one and toiled us much. Lets pray and be submissive to GOD for the whole 2011 and he will never forsaken us.Happy New Year
