Psalms 18:29 - "For by You I can run against a troop, By my God I can leap over a wall."
Life's experiences sometimes can feel like one is fighting against a troop. Situations oftentimes can present themselves as walls hindering your progress and advancement. Quite literally, David was faced with several of these situations in his lifetime, and in our anchor scripture, he made a powerful declaration of his ability, through God, to conquer a troop and advance even in the face of wall-like resistance.
This is this same understanding you need to maintain for you to face the “troops of life” and surmount the walls acting as barriers to your progress. Don’t cower or bow in the face of challenges. Stand tall in the confidence that God is for you. Be strong in the Lord and make your boast in His ability. When David faced Goliath, he was bold with his words. When Goliath said; “…Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the air and the beasts of the field!” Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin. But I come to you in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.” 1 Samuel 17:44-45.
So, against any troop-like and wall-like situations, stand firm in the name of the Lord and keep speaking His Word confidently against these situations which seek to defeat, derail or hinder your progress in life. When you face them resting on and speaking what God has said, you will overcome them and make progress. Mark 11:23 says; “For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.”
Prayer - Father, I believe and declare that by You, I overcome and make progress. By Your grace, I rule and reign over all circumstances in Jesus name. Amen.
