How many times have people expected a show off from you, do you really need to prove anything to any man rather than believing in what you’re?

How eager are you to build a solid relationship with your God, the earlier the better, just like when you discover a new coin that big boys are about to pump.

Today we’ll continue with this magnificent event in a life of an ordinary man, not known in his land, never mentioned to Kings, a shepherd in the wilderness who has but a few sheep 🐑 to care for, but there is one thing very powerful and worth emulating from that man.

That man is David in the Bible, David was a youth who discovered the treasures of having personal relationship with God, he believed in himself and received training from no other one but God inside the wilderness.

Even when his senior brethren got admitted to army school and was sponsored by their father and king Saul, the boy David wasn’t opportuned like them, but he knew whom he is, he was the anointing of God.

Before we continue with this story, I’d love you to have a deep rethink about your life, one thing that we must understand is that whatever that goes around us in this life has been coded in eternity, so, I’m not talking about you becoming successful in this life, am talking about you fulfilling your eternal ordination according to the eternal planning made by your creator.

Many things can affect this course in our lives, not paying attention to the calling of God upon our lives is the main virus that fights this virtue in us, but David understood all these, an he was able to stay where God wanted him to be at a particular time of his life which in the eyes of men was no place at all.

(story begins)

1 Samuel 17:12-30
Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Bethlehemjudah, whose name was Jesse; and he had eight sons: and the man went among men for an old man in the days of Saul.

And the three eldest sons of Jesse went and followed Saul to the battle: and the names of his three sons that went to the battle were Eliab the firstborn, and next unto him Abinadab, and the third Shammah.

(story continues)

And David was the youngest: and the three eldest followed Saul. But David went and returned from Saul to feed his father's sheep at Bethlehem.

And the Philistine drew near morning and evening, and presented himself forty days. And Jesse said unto David his son, Take now for thy brethren an ephah of this parched corn, and these ten loaves, and run to the camp to thy brethren; And carry these ten cheeses unto the captain of their thousand, and look how thy brethren fare, and take their pledge.

Now Saul, and they, and all the men of Israel, were in the valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines.
And David rose up early in the morning, and left the sheep with a keeper, and took, and went, as Jesse had commanded him; and he came to the trench, as the host was going forth to the fight, and shouted for the battle. For Israel and the Philistines had put the battle in array, army against army.

And David left his carriage in the hand of the keeper of the carriage, and ran into the army, and came and saluted his brethren. And as he talked with them, behold, there came up the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, out of the armies of the Philistines, and spake according to the same words: and David heard them. And all the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him, and were sore afraid.

And the men of Israel said,

Have ye seen this man that is come up? surely to defy Israel is he come up: and it shall be, that the man who killeth him, the king will enrich him with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and make his father's house free in Israel.

And David spake to the men that stood by him, saying,

What shall be done to the man that killeth this Philistine, and taketh away the reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?

And the people answered him after this manner, saying,

So shall it be done to the man that killeth him.

And Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spake unto the men; and Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said,

Why camest thou down hither? and with whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know thy pride, and the naughtiness of thine heart; for thou art come down that thou mightest see the battle.

And David said,

What have I now done? Is there not a cause?

And he turned from him toward another, and spake after the same manner: and the people answered him again after the former manner.

In conclusion

Permit me to rephrase that word from David to his elder brothers “What have I now done? Is there not a cause”

Yes there is a cause why you’re there, why you’re here in steemit, why you’re reading this articles here on steemit, there is a cause why God has brought you thus far!

Our journey with the lord has just started and there a reward for everyone that will fight this fight of faith.

I’ll leave us with these words till we return again.

Revelation 2:25-26
But that which ye have already hold fast till I come. And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: said Jesus our lord.

Thank you.
