Let me start by saying that the bigger your problem, the bigger the reward you get for solving that problem.

Fear and terror filled the land of Israel as war raged on between the Philistines and the Israelites. The Israelites were already worn out from fighting and their lands were looted and devastated daily by the enemy forces. They found themselves in a cul-de-sac.
Still yet the enemy presented another debacle; Goliath the Giant. The earth quivered and shook as the Giant marched on along with the Philistines.
"I dare the house of Israel to give me a man who can fight me", the Giant mocked them. As he spoke, the earth quaked.
"We are done for!", the jaded Israeli soldiers exclaimed.
For forty days! Yes! Forty solid days, Goliath terrified the camp of Israel.
Even Saul, the King of Israel could not muster courage to fight Goliath. So he threw up a great reward for whoever would be able to kill him.
Great riches! The Princess hand in marriage! Oh so sumptuous and magnificent a reward! But Goliath's roar swallowed up all their courage. The risk of death was too mighty to bear.
All were afraid. But only one young man who was not even a soldier, was able to rise from his fear and take up the challenge. David!
With the permission from the King, he took his staff in his hand, and chose five stones out of the brook and put them in his shepherd's bag.
He took the challenge and finally killed Goliath. He stepped up from his fear and achieved success.

Is there any challenge or difficult situation that has posed as a Goliath in your life? Always know that there is no problem too big to be solved. All it takes is to step out from the "I CAN'T DO IT" mindset and seek solutions to your problem. I say again; the bigger your problem, the bigger the reward you get for solving that problem. David never saw a problem, he saw a reward!
Remember you are born to win and you have the power at work in you to do all things! I mean all things! Step up and face your fears!
