    For many people Goliath spells death, or the end. But for the enlightened child of God, Goliath spells, opportunity, and promotion, and a stepping stone to the next level. Goliath shall come down, and you shall go up, in Jesus name.

    This whole chapter will be based on the many powerful revelations of 1Samuel Chapter 17. So let me start by saying, I’ve been hearing a Word in my spirit, and it is this...Goliath shall come down. What do you mean when you say Goliath?

However, as the days get darker spiritually and the love of people grows cold (Matthew 24:12; Romans 1:18-32), the problem of bullying is only going to grow like a cancer across ...read more
