Run

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 face down 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 17:48-50   Lately God has been dealing with me about running into my destiny, just as David ran toward the giant. Running into my destiny means that when He tells me to go, I have to go without thinking about where the journey will end. As the old adage says, "Slow obedience is no obedience." When God tells me to move, I must move without analyzing which position  I will occupy once I move.  A slothful response after God gives me instruction can lead to a less than desirable result.  Swift obedience, however, will birth abundance.  Running without thought is the striking equivalence of trusting God's word, plans, promises, and His faithfulness. It is also the total opposite of what my humanity wants to do in order to preserve itself from pain and problems. But isn't it awesome that we have a Father that stands patiently waiting for us to trust Him. My destiny is in the palm of His hand and it is waiting on me to come into it. So when He says go I go! When He says move, I move! and When He says, run, I run! http://areyoudavid.blogspot.com/ wheresdavid@ymail.com Many of us are familiar with the story of David and Goliath however the life of David and how the Lord used him, is a testament to who Jesus is.  Where's David, is a call for believers to share the gospel of the Lord with others, to strengthen each other through the word, and encourage each other through testimony.
