In every situation of life, giving self to witnessing\/testifying about God\u2019s doing is certain to provoke God\u2019s hand of favor over self\u2019s situation. Witnessing about what God is doing or what He has done is not keeping quiet but speaking out the doings of God in one\u2019s life. Witnessing \/testifying God is reminding God to gain from His favor. Give self to conversant way of life by witnessing\/testifying the Lords doing.<br \/>\nTestimony is a way of celebrating God by speaking out quietly or loudly for God to be glorified. It is a way of giving our jealous God His due attention. Giving God attention promotes His goodness. The Psalmist testified, <strong><em>\u201cThe wicked wait for me to destroy me, but I will consider Your testimonies.\u201d (Psalm 119:95)<br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong>The testimonies of God are the evidence of His work.<br \/>\nTestifying about God is gaining access into the power of God which is mighty to deliver. Testifying of God is an expression that one is counting on God for greater testimonies. It is apparent that when one reminds God concerning the work of His hand, He will react concerning war which confronts one. David\u2019s testimony reminded God to react concerning his war before Goliath.<br \/>\nOnce, Goliath stood a ground of war against the Children of Israel and he rained all kinds of verbal insult and harassment. In the face of Goliath none of the Israelites could consider the testimonies of God which is power enough to deliver. Among the Israelites, there was none with reaction that is rooted in thoughts of testimony of God in their war against Philistines. Take note today and know that: Man\u2019s reaction in the face of challenging situation is the evidence of thoughts rooted in God\u2019s testimony. David drew boldness and courage from testimonies of God to bring down Goliath. He testified, <strong><em>\u201cThe Lord, who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, He will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine.\u201d (1 Samuel 17:37)<\/em><\/strong> David\u2019s first offensive weapon of attack was remembering and reminding all agents of opposition about what God had done in his life. In the face of challenging situation, one with trust and hope in God knows to remember by reminding God to provoke God\u2019s intervention on self\u2019s behalf. David could not be quiet about the Lord\u2019s doing as a result, Heaven moved on his behalf to silent his enemy. Be loud about God and be victorious.<br \/>\nKeeping testimonies of God; clinging self to God\u2019s testimonies is the evidence of one with a thankful heart before God. Those who keep God\u2019s testimonies gives thanks for all things. It is giving thanks for all things that makes all things work together for good. Psalmist stated, <strong><em>\u201cBlessed are those who keep His testimonies, who seek Him with the whole heart.\u201d (Psalm 119:2)<\/em><\/strong> Seek God with testimonies of His doing. According to the word of God, when we seek God first, all things shall be added to us.
