“And the children of Israel returned from chasing after the Philistines, and they spoiled their tents. And David took the head of the Philistine, and brought it to Jerusalem; but he put his armour in his tent.” Samuel 17:53-54
Oh, sweet victory! Beyond every giant are the spoils of war. After David killed the giant, the children of Israel possessed a little more of the land of promise. Along with it came some of the wealth of the wicked. Now in the hands of the righteous, it would bring glory to God. (See Proverbs 13:22b.)
After you have watched the giant fall, do not forget to recover the reward. It is God’s blessing. It is His law of labor and reward. You fought the battle and won. You overcame the giant. (See Romans 8:37.) NOW THE BLESSING IS YOURS.
Review with me the end of the Book (Revelation). Here is what God promises: “To him that overcometh. …”
Rev. 2:7 “. .. will I give to eat of the tree of life.”
Rev. 2:26 “… will I give power over the nations.”
Rev. 3:12 “Will I make a pillar in the temple of my God.”
Rev. 3:21 “… will I grant to sit with me in my throne.”
Rev. 21:7 “…shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.”
PRAY:
“Father, I thank You for the promise of reward for my labor. Help me to be patient in battle with an expectation of victory. I am an overcomer in Jesus’ Name
