"For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this

The person who knows "Jesus Christ" as their Lord and Saviour, should learn that
you do not take on the world in his or her own strength.
The Lord will go before you and fight for you, but if you want to fight in your

and guide you he will also protect you. "And the Lord shall guide thee
continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou

"Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own

Proverbs 3:5,6 The above quoted scriptures are direct promises
from God's word. His promises never fail, neither is he too weak that he cannot
keep his promises. We must believe that he is and that he is a rewarder of those

All the promises in the bible are for the believers. We just have to look to him
for our strength and guidance. Whatever our need is for the day can be obtained
from God, if we will only look to him.

father's sheep, David had time to meditate and learn to lean on God for
direction in life and eventually became the King
