Revitalize the Nations 2

                                        Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

Economic


Revitalizing the nations calls for economic participation in economic processes by
everyone in the nations. This ensures that everyone has access to economic resources – jobs for those who seek to be employed by government and corporations as well as small businesses; mediated access to economic resources for those who want to be self-employed. It also includes raising the consciousness of people from begging and borrowing to feed to actual participation in economic processes.

No nation sustains on welfare to the poor and the poor also do not rise above poverty on welfare. They have to participate in economic processes. Ruth for instance gleaned from the farmlands of Boaz not because she preferred to glean. It was because Ruth and Naomi arrived in Bethlehem at harvest time and because they did not plant before then, Ruth took advantage of the welfare program of gleaning in the farmlands of other people rather than beg. Please read Ruth Chapters 1 to 4 for great insight.

Gleaning is not exactly welfare. It is giving the people who did not plant during planting seasons either because they were not in town during planting season or had no farmlands to plant on an opportunity to put food on their table. That way, they would not have to beg or be a burden to other people or the state.

Resource mobilization and management is strategic to revitalizing the nations economically especially where there are targeted development plans to bring in abundance. The nations would have to mobilize the right resources required for their national and personal development. Optimal resource management which includes judicious allocation of resources to the right places for development across board should also be factored into the resource mobilization process. This will ensure effective and efficient resource management. There is no point mobilizing resources if they would not be efficiently managed.

Infrastructure development is also required to manage the envisaged abundance profitably. For instance what Joseph did in Egypt before the abundant harvests of the seven years of plenty came is   a case in point. He put down relevant structures to accommodate the surplus harvest. The relevant questions the officials of the nations should be asking - What structures are in place so that the envisaged abundance does not go to waste?

Peace and Development


The significance of peace in the land cannot be over stated. However, j
ustice is the precursor to peace and peace leads to development and prosperity, progress, safety, general security, flourishing businesses, great bilateral trade relations, wealth, favor, etc. to ensure peace in the land, the leaders of the nations should ensure that justice reigns in the land. During the reign of King Solomon in Israel, the Bible records that there was justice and peace in the land and that culminated in great development and progress in the land. Please read 1st Kings Chapters 3, 4 and 5. Please also read 1st Kings Chapter 4 verses 21 to 34, 5 verses 1 to 18, 10 verses 23 to 29. The reign of King Asa of Judah is another Biblical case in point. Please read  2nd Chronicles Chapter 14 verses 1 to 7.

Repentance from dead works

A number of nations waste their God given resources through corruption, laziness, greed, ignorance, lack of planning and absolute inattention to priorities. What is required for revitalizing such nations is whole hearted repentance of the national sins of waste through corruption, lack of planning, mismanagement of resources, lack of care and attention, waste of life through inattention to healthcare, roads, potable water provision, security, unpaid salaries, youth development, care of the elderly. Such repentance will bring in the presence of God and divine direction as to how to manage their resources to revitalize their nations. Please read Zechariah Chapters 5 verses 1 to 4; 1 verses 18 to 21; 14 verses 11 to 12, Ezekiel Chapters 35 verses 1 to 9; 36 verse 5 and Proverbs Chapters 15 verse 27; 29 verse 24.

God hates wicked counsel and wicked counselors – Ezekiel Chapter 11 verses 1 to 13, 2nd Samuel Chapter 15 verse 12, 31 to 37, 16 verses 15 to 23, 17 verses 1 to 23. Pray that God would send the right counsellors who would give the counsel of God to the nations.

Adopt and operate a zero waste policy as well as fruitfulness – Hebrews Chapter 6 verses 7 to 8.

Connect creativity – link creative people so that they can pool their resources- talent, time, money, etc together for the common good – Exodus Chapter 25 verses 1 to 8, 35 verses 1 to 10, 21 to 29, 30 to 35, 36 verses 1 to 4, 1st Chronicles Chapter 29 verse 1.

To God be the Glory

Psalm 126


When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream, Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for them. The LORD hath done great things for us; [whereof] we are glad. Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the south. They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves [with him].


PSALM 150

Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power. Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness. Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp. Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.  Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.6 Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.

Pray to Heal the Nations 2

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

Prayer is not gymnastics. It is not a display of spiritual power with God or self-righteousness or spiritual superiority over other people. Prayer is laying it all down before God; surrendering to God in humility; humbling ourselves before God to seek His help; intervention and guidance in our lives. Prayer is worship; it is total surrender to God to Whom all power belong.

Pray for Deliverance from Near Death Situations

Elijah travailed for the dying son of the widow of Zarephath to be revived back to life in 1st Kings Chapter 17 verses 17 to 24 and in 18 verses 41 to 46, the Bible records Elijah’s travails for the restoration of rain in Israel. Please read also James Chapter 5 verses 16 to 18.

Elisha travailed for life to be restored to the son of the woman of Shunem – 2nd Kings Chapter 4 verses 32 to 37. Elisha – 2nd Kings Chapter 4 verses 28 to 37

The Early Church also travailed. They prayed for Peter who was about to be killed by Herod and Peter was miraculously released from prison on the night before he was to be killed. Please read full details of this faith inspiring story in Acts Chapter 12.

Hezekiah in Isaiah Chapter 38, take note of verse 5, 21. In the place of a lump of figs, apply the blood of Jesus Christ.

Epaphroditus in Philippians Chapter 2 verses 25 to 30. God had mercy on him and on the Apostle Paul so that Paul would not have sorrow. Thank You, Jesus.

Beloved, you ought to pray for members of your family, neighbors, community and nation who do not see their need for the Lordship of Jesus Christ over their lives. This is because such people are acting like Peter who denied the Lordship of Jesus Christ. What is required is much prayer for them to be completely free of the forces of darkness controlling them and blinding them from responding to the great love of God for them. Please read Amos Chapter 2 verse 3, Matthew Chapter 16 verses 21 to 23, 2nd Corinthians Chapters 3 to 4. Your sincere prayers for them will help them surrender to Christ and as they do so, healing comes to the individuals in their spirits, souls and bodies so that the families, neighborhoods, communities and nations experience peace and total healing by the Spirit of God.

Pray to Heal the Nations

Why Pray


Jesus commanded and showed us a pattern. Prayers are also required to deal with deceit, hypocrisy, to stop the activities of ignorant teachers and therefore correct error. Please read the following scriptures for details and inspiration - Romans Chapter 8 verse 34, Hebrews Chapter 7 verse 25, James Chapter 5 verse 16, Ezekiel Chapter 33 verses 6 to 11, Isaiah Chapter 62 verses 6 to 7, John Chapter 10 verse 10, 2nd Corinthians Chapter 4 verses 3 to 4, Galatians Chapter 2 verses 11 to 14, 1st Timothy Chapter 1 verses 3 to 7, 4 verses 1 to 16, 2nd Timothy Chapters 3 verses 1 to 9, 4 verses 1 to 5, 14 to 15, Titus Chapter 1 verses 5 to 16, Romans Chapter 16 verses 17 to 18.

We are to pray without ceasing like Anna, the Apostle Paul, Jesus Christ, Moses, Elijah, some scripture references on praying at all times – 2nd Timothy Chapter 5 verses 1 to 6, Mark Chapter 1 verse 35, Luke Chapter 5 verse 16, 6 verse 12, 9 verse 18, 1 verse 1, 18 verses 1 to 14 and 21 verse 36.

Some examples of prayers in the Bible include but are not limited to Jesus’ prayer in John Chapter 17, the following Pauline prayers in Colossians Chapters 4 verse 12, 3 verse 16, 1 verses 9 to 23, 1st Thessalonians Chapter 3 verses 9 to 23, Elijah’s prayer in James Chapter 5 verses 14 to 16, Peter’s prayers in 2nd Peter Chapter 3 verses 16 to 18 and Psalm 125. ,

Nehemiah prayed for the restoration of Jerusalem, alone in the privacy of his room. Significantly, he did not call for a prayer meeting. Rather, he cried to God on behalf of his nation. Quite instructive is the fact that Nehemiah was comfortable in the land of captivity. He served the King and because the King was impressed with the quality of Nehemiah’s services as cup bearer, Nehemiah’s job was secure. Yet, Nehemiah was deeply concerned about the state of his homeland, in point of fact so concerned that he took time to fast and pray for his nation in the midst of comfort and abundance that he was in.

Speak Life to the Nations 2

    Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

You can also create order out of chaos, give hope to the hopeless by speaking God’s hope into hopeless situations and the often hopelessness exhibited  by people who have been victims of extenuating circumstances such as war, devastating natural and man-made disasters, terminal diseases, failed relationships, financial losses, job losses, business failures, betrayals, loss of loved ones and rejection. Through the words you speak, you can speak the life of God into such people and seeming dead situations to restore the life of God into the people and the seeming dead situations. The prophet Ezekiel spoke life through the Spirit of God to the very dry bones in the valley of dry bones. The very dry bones came alive. Please read Ezekiel Chapter 37.

There are many people walking the streets, living amongst you who have not discovered the purpose of their existence on planet. Daily, they wander in both their mental processes and walks in life. They move from job to job, career to career, relationship to relationship, religion to religion, denomination to denomination, city to city and country to country. They can be described as ships without rudders adrift in the ocean of life and desperately hoping that they would land in some safe haven, albeit without a map and rudders. You can also give form to the formlessness in their lives by speaking God’s form and design into such formlessness. There is a great example in Genesis Chapter 1 where God spoke creation into existence through His words. You can give the required divine direction they require with the word of God to show them the paths of righteousness which lead to divine purpose and stability in life. That is why the words which you speak are important and should be drawn from God through His Spirit in you and the rich deposit of the word of God in you so that people can be saved from hopelessness and destruction.

Speak Life to the Nations

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

In the book of Genesis Chapter 1, the Bible records that God spoke creation into existence and gave form to the formlessness and emptiness in the earth.  He spoke light into existence and the light dispelled the darkness which covered the earth. Without light, the darkness would have remained masking all the beautiful creation of God.

You can also speak your way to wealth, success, life, progress, abundance, favor. Please read Hebrews Chapter 1 verse 3. MSG version.

Jesus Christ holds everything together by what He says – powerful words. What are powerful words? They are words which have power, carry power and always come to pass. Such words belong to God and are replete in the Bible. Please read Isaiah Chapter 55 verses 7 to 13, Jeremiah chapter 1 verses 1 to 12.

Jesus spoke to the fig tree and His words manifested immediately. Please read Mark Chapter 11 verses 12 to 26. Severally, Jesus spoke healing, life and restoration to people and there was immediate manifestation. You also have the same power in your mouth to speak life, healing and restoration to people and nations and institutions.

Edify to Heal the Nations


Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

The Church is the most powerful body on earth, the strongest people on earth who should actually determine how states are run, provide direction, give and state values for governance and business purposes, determine the flow of national resources and ensure equity and justice.
Yet, the Church is tied to the apron strings of states, taking directions from states; allowing States to provide guidance; unfortunately the guidance which the states do not source from God. Assenting to such guidance in the name of political correctness and social acceptance is not what the Church should do. Rather, the Church should sit up to her true responsibilities to edify the people in order to direct their hearts to God to provide direction for States. Please read Matthew Chapters 18 verses 18 to 20; 16 verses 13 to 19 and Isaiah Chapter 59 verse 19.
The Church should also arise from the slumber of being an appendage to States to walk in the light of God, to do everything for the purpose of edification and not competition or stomach infrastructure so that lives are saved, transformed to walk with God and serve God. Please read Ephesians Chapter 5 verse 16, 2nd Corinthians Chapter 13 verse 10, 1st Corinthians Chapter 14 verses 1 to 26, note verses 4 to 5, 12, 26 and 1st Thessalonians Chapter 5 verse 11.
Daniel and his three friends, Shedrach, Meshach and Abednego were able to achieve this in Babylon as well as the Persian empires they served in. The leadership of the early Church were also able to achieve this. They did not bull doze their way into the leadership of the nation States. They also did not challenge the authority of the leadership. They were honest, law abiding and God fearing citizens. They simply lived as God would have them live in the nations they served and provided divine direction when called upon to serve.

The Church should also put on the armor of light by living holy unto the Lord and not as the world expects the Church to live. Please read Romans Chapter 13 verse 12.

Provide Leadership to Heal the Nations 4


Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha


Leaders provide leadership giving direction out of miry circumstances. Generally, people gravitate to a sense of meaningful direction and purpose designed to bring about improvements in the quality of lives of the people. When they do not find that sense of direction and purpose, they drift seeking where they can find it.  Maxwell
True organizational growth is a product of conscious and deliberate; alongside consistent self-discovery, personal development and growth. This is because an organization cannot grow beyond the capacity of the people who man and run the organization. If you put a rookie pilot in the best of today’s aircraft, the aircraft can only perform as best as the expertise and experience of the rookie pilot. In like manner, the growth and development of any nation is tied to both the personal development and growth of both the leadership and the people of the country.

A leadership unschooled in self-discovery and personal development and growth is akin to the blind leading the blind and the blind leading the blind may not go far especially on a development and growth route lined with potholes, etc.

When a person lacks the leadership skills to manage an enterprise especially if s/he has no vision of where s/he is headed and therefore cannot find the mission, objectives, activities alongside timelines as well as other resources to grow and sustain the enterprise, then the enterprise is doomed to fail not because God designed it to fail but because the leader has refused to connect with God to get directives on how to pilot the enterprise to success.
An incorrigible temperamental person who lacks discipline, is spiteful, unteachable and lies and is also vengeful has no business in leadership. S/he has no rule over his own spirit and therefore should not rule over other people. Proverbs Chapter 14 verse 29.

Provide Leadership to Heal the Nations 3


Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha
Nehemiah’s Success Strategies

A great fervent and loving relationship with God, he always turned to God first for counsel. Direction and help before asking for human help and support.
Nehemiah was a man of prayer – he prayed rather than argue, quarrel or fight. In essence, he handed his challenges to God and God always took care of the challenges.
He did not go it alone. He partnered and worked with other people – collaboration and networking - Nehemiah Chapter 4 verses 4 to10.
He put God interest and national interest ahead of personal and family interest. God honored him.
He consistently encouraged his partners and fellow workers on the wall. That stirred up their morale and determination to work despite the fierce opposition, ridicule and mockery from Sanballat and co.
When it became absolutely necessary, Nehemiah resorted to the use of arms - the opposition was going to launch surprise attacks on them and because they were privileged to get that information early, they prepared and stationed armed guards at the most vulnerable places of the wall. He also encouraged the guards, assuring them of God’s protection over their lives and of course ultimate victory against their enemies.
He trained and encouraged everyone to be on alert, high alert so that even while drinking water, his spear was rightly positioned for attack. He also kept reassuring them of God’s protection. God honored Nehemiah and kept him and his men and the Jews safe. The opposition failed and the wall was completed.

y Provide Leadership to Heal the Nations 2


Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

Nehemiah; Strategist and Builder

He provided leadership and direction. He provided selfless leadership, not leadership for personal gain.
God instructed Nehemiah to rebuild the broken down walls of Jerusalem after a period of waiting in God in prayers and fasting. Having received uncommon divine favor from God to access the required resources for the tasks ahead, Nehemiah went to Jerusalem; probably accompanied by some Jews and friends.
Quite significant and instructive is the fact that he did not share what God instructed him to do at Jerusalem with anyone immediately. They had been there three days, yet he kept mum. Even when he embarked on the surveillance mission at night to inspect the walls, he was taciturn. Not a word to anyone, not even the priests, nobles, local officials or anyone else he would partner and work with.
Also significant is the fact that he embarked on the mission at night – so as not to call attention to what he was doing – inspecting the wall to ascertain extent of damage. That way, no one knew what he was doing or what he was up to. It was only after he had a clear idea of the extent of damage and the volume of work required for damage reversal that he called a meeting of potential stakeholders and told them why he was in Jerusalem; albeit what had to be done and the favor and support he had received from the King.
The potential stakeholders were impressed and gave him their full support. That commenced the rebuilding of the broken down walls of Jerusalem albeit amidst fierce opposition by those who hated the Jews – led by Sanballat, Tobiah and Geshem. Nevertheless the walls of Jerusalem were rebuilt because Nehemiah provided leadership, drawn from God through his fervent relationship with God.
Secondly, the people had a mind to work because God made them willing – Psalm 110 – your people shall be willing in the day of your power. God energized and strengthened them to work.
Leadership is not competition; it is not rivalry; it is giving divine direction to the people of God so that the people who know their God can do exploits at all times. Most times, people assume that leadership is lording it over people but the truth is that leadership is to provide direction. Jesus Christ gave the perfect example when He said that leadership is service - service to humanity – teach the people what to do; direct them on where to go; instruct them on how to do things and give them the space they require to do what they have to do with zero to minimum supervision. Leadership is not a show off of power, money and influence. It embodies humility and a willingness to teach and correct in love.

Provide Leadership to Heal the Nations


Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha
 Hezekiah’s Strategy

Quite significant, instructive and strategic is the fact that Hezekiah did not have access to or owned the military, numeric, economic or political might of the Assyrian King, Sennacherib. Even the military chieftain of the Assyrian army known as Rabshekah attested to this fact when he sarcastically asked Hezekiah’s men if they could find two thousand men to place on two thousand horses that they would gladly give Hezekiah. Please read Isaiah Chapter 36 verse 8.  So in terms of numeric strength of soldiers, as well as weapons for warfare, Judah had none and Hezekiah did not pretend that he had anything anywhere. Therefore, looking at the facts on the ground, Judah had absolutely no reason to defy Sennacherib. Yet Hezekiah chose to defy Sennacherib and urged his people to do so. Why?
Hezekiah trusted in God and chose to use the truth of the word of God that never fails; that always accomplishes divine purpose against Sennacherib and his conquistador army. Even the Rabshekah warned Hezekiah that Hezekiah’s words were no match for his weapons. Please read Isaiah Chapter 36 verses 4 to 7. Not surprising! The Rabshekah was ignorant of the truth of the word of God; coupled with the great power in the word of God. He did not know that the word of God is God; and because all power belongs to God (Psalm 62); the word of God cannot and does not fail.
Significantly, Hezekiah did not call a press conference to address the press about what the Rabshekah said. Neither did he call a national executive committee meeting. He did not also call a town hall or community or national meeting.
Hezekiah, fasting went to the temple of God and prayed. He also sent the three representatives to the prophet Isaiah to report what the Rabshekah said. Hezekiah had hardly finished from the temple waiting to get feedback from the three representatives sent to Isaiah when Sennacherib sent a new message; this time a handwritten letter. After reading the letter, Hezekiah again acted in the area of his strength. He went to the temple and spread the letter out before God.

Wise Women, Strong Women, Strong Nations 3


Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha
The brave, beautiful and courageous mother of Moses, Jechobed also falls into this category of women. For three months, she successfully hid her son Moses from not only Pharaoh and his children murdering army but also her neighbors. She kept sealed lips and even when she strategized on dropping Moses off at the river, she kept sealed lips. Only Miriam, also schooled in keeping secrets was privy to what she was doing which explain why Jechobed took Miriam with her to the river. Jechobed’s discreet use of her tongue also helped to keep her son safe.

Esther the queen was wise and strong enough to obey her older cousin Mordecai not to disclose her race to anyone until the appointed time even when she did not understand why she had to keep sealed lips. As events unfolded, she realized the wisdom in keeping sealed lips.
Beloved, it is not every information about you or family members, institution, community or nation that should be in the public domain. Some information should be kept secret until when God is ready for the information to be made public. If Esther had disclosed her race, Haman would have probably embarked on a campaign of calumny against her and strategized on dethroning her. If Jechobed had announced that she was hiding her son for safety purpose, one or two angry women who lost theirs to Pharaoh’s murderous army would have snitched to the authorities and Moses would have been killed. But because she brought Moses out at the right time in God’s plans and purposes for the young man, God arranged for the Princess to have compassion on him and adopt him. That was also the case with Jehosheba and Joram. When it was God’s time to rid Athaliah and her evil reign of terror from the land, God used Jehoiada, the Priests and Levites to crown Joram as King in Jerusalem. This was of course after the young man, as well as the Priests and Levites led by Jehoiada covenanted themselves to God; to honor and serve God. The coronation was successful, Athaliah was killed and everyone and the city had peace.

Wise Women, Strong Women, Strong Nations 2

Jehosheba, Wise and Strong
Jehosheba was the daughter of the infamous and unrepentant King Jehoram of Judah. Quite significant and instructive is the fact that Jehoram was the son of Jehoshaphat who ruled Judah after the demise of Jehoshaphat. Unfortunately, Jehoram chose to walk in darkness; following in eh footsteps of the Ahab dynasty. He also abandoned the light his father walked in. he killed his brothers the moment he ascended the throne, served idols, refused reproof and correction despite several warnings and catastrophes. Eventually, he died of an incurable disease in his colon. He also suffered loss of children and wives following an invasion of Judah by the Philistines. His only surviving son, Ahaziah took over as King after his death. But Ahaziah also chose to walk in the darkness of the Ahab dynasty and also died young. Quite sad but even more sad was what his mother Athaliah did after his death. Rather than crown one of his sons King, she took over as queen and went on a killing spree – supposedly killing all who could succeed Ahaziah.
But Ahaziah’s sister, Jehosheba who was the wife of Jehoiada the Priest saved one of the sons of Ahaziah by stealing him and his nurse and hiding them away from Athaliah. So, Athaliah unleashed a reign of terror, unaware that there was a successor to the throne.
Significantly, Jehosheba’s actions were based on the word of God, the precious and faithful promises of God to David that he would never lack an heir to the throne. Please read Psalm 89. So for about seven years, Jehosheba and her husband, Jehoiada nurtured the young Prince Joram in preparation for the throne. They did this quietly and secretly. No one was aware of the fact that any of Ahaziah’s sons was still alive except his nurse. At the appointed time, Jehoiada acted, working in tandem with other Priests and Levites to crown the young Joram as King.
Beloved, Jehosheba was not only a godly woman who feared God and honored God; she was a courageous woman. She took a great risk in stealing the young prince alongside her nurse from the palace; a great risk because the blood thirsty Athaliah could have killed her and her entire family if she discovered. But because Jehosheba acted in faith like Queen Esther, God ensured that Athaliah never knew anything about it. God kept Jehosheba and her family as well as the Prince and her nurse safe.

Goliaths are Masks


Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha


Panic, confusion, anxiety, great anxiety prowls the earth; seeking refuge in hearts weighed down by tales of skilled orators and story tellers. Tales which are garbed in religion, myths, facts, anything but the truth; masking the greatest hoax of the century which is designed to cripple the hearts of men and make kittens of women and children as they run endless races in stampedes for bread, money and mammon. A well fattened lie from the pit of hell but which has been defeated by the truth of the word of God and the blood of Jesus Christ, the name of Jesus Christ at which every knee bows and every tongue confesses the LORDSHIP of JESUS CHRIST; JESUS CHRIST is LORD forever over every Goliath in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
Therefore, unmask a Goliath and you will be shocked because Goliaths unmasked are deflated balloons, puffed up air, only for a while, waiting to explode into nothingness, oblivion and expiration. Goliaths are huge fat lies, waiting to be exposed and destroyed by the truth of the word of God.

Beloved, the truth about the strength of Goliaths is that the strength of Goliaths is only for as long as Goliaths remain unchallenged with the truth of the word of God. Goliath’s peacock strut and parade is also only for as long as he is permitted to do so. Once challenged with the truth of the word of God, Goliaths become vulnerable and die. That means that Goliath’s strength lies in the lies he tells; through threats, intimidation, empty boasts and propaganda designed to immobilize its victims to inaction so that they are not able to come up with appropriate responses. The inaction further strengths Goliath to inflict petrifying fear whereas in reality, Goliaths are the ones who are most afraid.

Beloved, do not fear. The panacea to every Goliath irrespective of its supposedly strength and armies behind it as well as the length of its reign of terror is to challenge Goliath with the truth of the Word of God. The Word of God always has great power to silence Goliath and his cohorts forever.
