BIG ON THE INSIDE
Text: “And David said to Saul, Let no man’s heart fail because of
him: thy servant will go and fight with this Philistine.” 1 Sam 17:32
The extent to which we
can go in life, how much we can accomplish does not depend on the size of our
head, the level of our education or the color of our skin. It depends majorly
on the content of our recreated human spirit.
How big you are on the
inside is what will determine how far you can go and what you can accomplish.
David was young, fragile
and skinny compared to Goliath. Naturally he was the last person that would
have been considered to fight in the battle. In contrast Saul had all the
qualification, he had the attributes of a warrior, and he was the commander in
chief of the army of Israel. With all these he still could not face Goliath
because he was big outwardly but small inwardly. He was full of fear and
timidity. These are attributes of been small within.
David was so big on the inside;
he could not imagine how Goliath became a threat to Israel. He was so sure to
bring down the head of Goliath.
David had an unshakeable
consciousness of the ability of God within himself. He knew that God could not
fight a battle and lose. We must be extremely conscious of the reality of God’s
ability within us. Christ in you makes you bigger than the whole world put
together. The more conscious you become of this the bigger you become on the
inside. You can face anything, go anywhere and become whatever God has in stock
for you.
Smith Wigglesworth said
“I am a thousand times bigger on the inside than I am on the outside”. Don’t
wait to have a feeling of being big on the inside, let it be your understanding
of what God made you because the greater one dwells in you. This will give you
extraordinary confidence as you face life.
CONFESSION:
I’m bigger than any
challenge of life. The greater one dwells within me. Nothing is beyond my reach
in life.
