WHEN A CHAMPION GOES OUT OF THE CAMP OF THE PHILISTINES - The Shout Of A King Series 003

I Samuel 17:4, KJV

"4 And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span."

I told you that you need to have a big daddy. Anybody who's without a big daddy in life will suffer. Irrespective of where they take my name to, it's my big daddy who will answer. From their consultation table, my King will meet them. 

Without a big daddy in your midst, who will defend you? Who will stand up for you and fight your battles? Who will take your battle upon himself and make it his? Who will say, "sit here at my right hand side until I have made your enemy your footstool" (Psalm 110:1)? "Who", let us know once more. 

You need the King in your midst, o people. If you aren't born again, sorry He is not in your midst. Until you invite Him into your life, He is not with you. Until you renounce your sins and ask for forgiveness, He wouldn't come in or tabernacle in your midst. Until then, He doesn't assume the position of a defender and opposer of those who oppose you. Look at today's Bible verse. It says, "a champion went out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath of Gath..."

Mind the word, "champion." It means, "unconquered, undefeated and unbeaten" till the time the Bible refers to him as champion. It means never beaten before. It means for once, he has never been shamed. So, he qualifies being called a champion. This champion isn't an ordinary champion brethren. He is a giant. His description makes him fearful to anyone who might want to take him on. See it. 

I Samuel 17:4-7, KJV

"...named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.  

5 And he had an helmet of brass upon his head, and he was armed with a coat of mail; and the weight of the coat was five thousand shekels of brass.  

6 And he had greaves of brass upon his legs, and a target of brass between his shoulders.  

7 And the staff of his spear was like a weaver's beam; and his spear's head weighed six hundred shekels of iron: and one bearing a shield went before him."

I believe no ordinary man could take him on without a Spirit of faith and revelation resting on the fellow first of all. That indeed helped David when he challenged him by saying, "who's this uncircumcised Philistine that he should defy the army of God" (I Sam. 17:26). David had a revelation and an understanding that Goliath is an infidel who has no covenant with God. So, he could be taken down. However, that doesn't make Goliath less of his people's champion. They so much esteemed him as unbeatable that what he demanded for was a one and one fight with Israel's representative (I Sam. 17:8). He was banking on the fact that he would win. And his people didn't have to worry about fighting because they had him to fight their battles singlehandedly. I know until he lost, they never believed he could lose. Never!

Goliath is the king in the midst of his people - the Philistines. The Bible calls him a champion who stood out and went out of them to represent them. His presence arms his people with confidence. It arms them with surety that they'll always go and come back victorious. No wonder, he himself was shouting and harassing Israel for a whole 40 days without a person to challenge him until God raised David. Are there kings threatening you? They're bowed for your sake. Today, you win over all kings ruling over your territories, challenging your authority in Christ and debating your sonhsip with you. In absolute victory, you shall stand over them in victory. Where are those giants shouting as kings against you? Is it failure, sickness, fear, debt, childlessness, poverty, a curse etc. Their reign ends today. Their teeth is plucked out of their mouths and they're struck on the cheek bones. 

PRAYER/CONFESSION: In absolute victory, I stand over my Goliath in faith.
