What does it look like when someone is bold enough to face the very thing set out to destroy them?
Running toward a heavily armed giant is insane. And doing it with only a bag of rocks? That’s a death wish. But here’s the truth: monsters are defeated when someone is bold enough to die for the win. Someone who’s all in for the cause. Someone who’s willing to risk everything for victory.
The Authority in Your Pain
The places where we’ve faced pain, trauma, and loss—those places don’t disqualify us. They equip us.
We weren’t just held to the flame—we walked into the furnace and put the fire out with our faith. The very trial you’re walking through right now is forging something holy in you: authority over your giant. You are being strengthened to slay the dragons that have hunted you—and the ones that have dared come after those you love.
This is what happens when we overcome:
We become experts in the things that once tried to destroy us.
We gain understanding in areas where we’ve experienced loss.
We become advocates when we survive trauma and live to tell the story.
(Read that again—some of you need to get bold and use your voice!)
Every battle you’ve faced gives you spiritual weight. Like bones that heal stronger after breaking, your pain—when surrendered to God—becomes your power. It becomes the very weapon the enemy fears.
“Don’t be afraid, for I am with you.
Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you.
I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.”
— Isaiah 41:10 NLT
The Power of a Willing Life
Whatever you’re facing now, remember this: Death was defeated because Jesus was willing to die. The emphasis isn’t on death—it’s on willingness.
He didn’t run from the cross. He ran toward His purpose.
Be bold, sisters. Consider your life an offering—an investment into the Kingdom. Offer your pain, trauma, brokenness, and betrayal to the only One who can take your ashes and make them into weapons of warfare.
“Jesus said to all of his followers, ‘If you truly desire to be my disciple, you must disown your life completely, embrace my ‘cross’ as your own, and surrender to my ways.’”
— Luke 9:23 TPT
“Keep in mind that we who belong to Jesus Christ have already experienced crucifixion. For everything connected with our self-life was put to death on the cross and crucified with Messiah.”
— Galatians 5:24 TPT
So go ahead—
die for the win.
Let your surrender be your strength.
Let your story be a sword.
And let your faith be the flame that sets the world on fire.
