FOREWORD

And Saul said to David, Thou art not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him: for thou art but a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.

—1 Samuel 17:33

Pastor Joshua is a young minister of God who is imbued with the qualities of a great leader for his generation. Having mentored a lot of young men to the fulfilment of their destinies for over twenty-five years myself, I can recognise God’s grace wherever I find it. The grace of God is upon him. Then, this book is very timely; the body of Christ needs a dose of truth at a time like this, when things are falling apart in the world and a lot of the youth are losing their directions based on wrong decisions and value systems. From the passage I started with above, Saul discouraged David from taking the challenge that would change his destiny forever because he himself never faced and conquered any such challenge. If you want to be able to kill giants in your future, go under a giant killer for training and mentoring. A non-giant killer can never train you to kill one.

Never stop an adventurer of faith. If Goliath had been a champion from his youth, I think the more reason we should allow our youth to start putting their faith to practice from their youth; they will become stronger as they go. As they go, they will grow.

May you be richly blessed as you read this book. Be expecting more to come after this. God bless you.
