In our lives, if we encounter confrontations, even if we do not want to, however, they arise through the walk of our lives. "And the Philistine drew nigh unto David, and he that bare the shield went before him." (I Samuel 17:41). Understand that neither David nor the Philistine wanted confrontation, but it was necessary.

The confrontation is inevitable, already the defeat yes! The difference is of who has God as the guide and who does not. With God victory is certain!

"And when he saw the Philistine, and saw David, he despised him, because he was a young man, and reddish, and of a pleasant countenance: and the Philistine said to David, Am I a dog, that thou shouldst come to me with clubs? Philistine by their gods cursed David. " (I Samuel 17:42 and 43) At this moment the confrontation began. "And the Philistine said to David, 'Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the air and the beasts of the field.'" But David said to the Philistine, "You come to me with a sword and a spear and a shield. but I come to you in the name of the Lord of Hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have dealt with. " (I Samuel 17:44 and 45). We see that at this hour, David set out for the show, without fear, because he knew who God was in his life. The faith was in conflict at that moment, but David was not shaken by the situation. You know, my dear brother, you will face several confrontations during your life, but the difference lies in the faith you lead. How have you been going to the showdown, with the certainty that God is in your life, and you will come out victorious, or, afraid of the situation? It is at the moment of confrontation that you will shout for your faith! Will you ask for the help of God or some friend? It is necessary to be firm in the word of the Lord, you must be prepared for the day of the fight! Review the armor of God!
