1 Sam 30:6 In life you need how to motivate and encourage yourself to continue in whatever endeavour God has given you to undertake. We often depend on external factors, like opinions of others. 1Sam 30:1-6 The account of the raid. 1. Develop a personal relationship with the Holy Spirit. Developed by faith. Holy Spirit is the Comforter. 1 John 4:4, John 14:16-18 2. Recieve living messages from God by simply reading the scriptures. 3.  Remember other problems that God has delivered you from. Deut 8:3 The intensity of the experience that the LORD subjected Israel to was strongly imprint the lesson that man does not live by bread alone but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD. The raising of Lazarus in John 11 was an extreme case that would teach us something that we will not forget. Mark8:18-21 4. Make Positive Confessions. Your faith is a shield Eph 6:16 5. Learn to listen to appropriate tapes and get fired up. The word is God. John 1:1 6. Play the right music at the right time. Use music to create the environs you need. 7. Avoid depressive and discouraging people. Ps 43:5 Ps 42:1-11

Ps 119:98-100 What you need in a war more is to be wiser than the enemy and act before he acts. The strength of the artillery is not as important as that in winning. If the enemy is superior in arms, and you are smarter, you can be steps ahead of him, getting away before he strikes. Bible talks of two kinds of wisdom: James 3:13-17 The wisdom that we need is that which is from God that begins by fearing God - Prov 9:10 It is the fool that denies the reality of God in his heart. Ps 14:1, 53:1. It shows in how we live our lives. The one who even goes on to vocalize it, its an extreme case.

There are other things in the world but they are not the light. - John 1:1 The Word is God!
