FAITH CAPSULE: Boasting of God should be the evidence of knowing God.

1 Samuel 17

One can only boast in whom one knows. 
Boasting one you do not know is like an empty barrel making noise. 
Who or what do you know to boast about one?
Who do you know that is worthy of boasting about all day? 
The Psalmist testifies, “In God, we boast all day long…” (Psalm 44:8) 
In this life, there is none to boast about compared to boasting about God.
Boasting God is giving regard to God. 
God is the One and only almighty God, the great I AM, that is worthy of all-day boasting.
Boasting of God is giving attention to God. 
Boasting God will also gain attention from God. 
Boasting about God is announcing that with God, all things are possible. Boasting about God is rooted in boldness to look in the face of opposition with no fear. 
Boasting of God should be a way of life, and not only boasting when there is a confronting challenge. 
Boasting of God should be a constant engagement to gain the attention of God.
Boasting with an understanding of God from the heart and not from the mouth will boast about God. 
Boasting God all day long will boost up one where others are grounded. Indeed, know to boast God all day long.
The armies of the children of Israel and their God experienced verbal abuse by Goliath, the leader of the Philistines.
In response to the abuse of the Goliath, the Israelites became emotionally and physically grounded before Goliath and the Philistines.
Are you experiencing abuse in the face of your enemy?
Fear over the Israelites as Goliath stood to boast of his strength states, “…Why have you come out to line up for battle? Am I not a Philistine, and you the servants of Saul? Choose a man for yourselves, and let him come down to me. If he is able to fight with me and kill me, then we will be your servants. But if I prevail against him and kill him, then you shall be our servants and serve us.” And the Philistine said, “I defy the armies of Israel this day; give me a man, that we may fight together.” (1 Samuel 17:8-10)
When David got to the battleground, he responded to Goliath by boasting about his own God, “…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. This day the LORD will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you…” (1 Samuel 17:45-46) 
Know your God, boast in Him all day long, and He will boost you over your Goliath.

Prayer for today: Ask God to enable you to know Him.
