1 Samuel 17:38-40 (KJV) \” And Saul armed David with his armour, and he put an helmet of brass upon his head; also he armed him with a coat of mail.And David girded his sword upon his armour, and he assayed to go; for he had not proved it. And David said unto Saul, I cannot go with these; for I have not proved them. And David put them off him.And he took his staff in his hand, and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in a shepherd\’s bag which he had, even in a scrip; and his sling was in his hand: and he drew near to the Philistine.\”
It is always rewarding focusing on what God has instructed or ordained you for.It is fulfilling sticking to what you have tested or proven.And yes! It is so frustrating discarding your string and stones and jumping into the armours, the brass helmet, the mail coat and the sword many are using.The \’Sauls\’ may be getting results from their armours, but what may give you your victory lies in the little you are holding. That idea you have conceived might be despised when shared with people. But hey, you know how God instructs you. You know your struck record with this idea.Others may have trained themselves for years like Goliath who has been a man of war from his youth. But when God is with you, when your idea is inspired by God, you do not need that many years of experience to get your wins.If only you will remain focused on your string and five smooth stones, and not join the masses, you will be celebrated at the end.Stick to what you have tested!
