Title: Courage Against Giants
Speaker: Pastor Andrew Riggs
Date: 24th January 2016
Location: Sydney, Australia

This episode explores the theme of courage and faith when facing challenges that seem far beyond our strength. Using the story of the twelve spies in Numbers 13–14, the message highlights how God’s promises cut through fear, doubt, and overwhelming circumstances. Caleb and Joshua become key examples—men who saw the same giants as everyone else but trusted God more than the obstacles.

The episode draws a clear line between recognising real problems and allowing those problems to rule our decisions. It encourages staying spiritually strong, fuelling faith through prayer, fellowship, and the Word, and trusting God for the miracles only He can provide—just as Israel needed when crossing the Jordan. The story concludes with Caleb, now 85, finally overcoming the same giants that once caused Israel to retreat, reinforcing that perseverance in faith always leads to victory.

The message ultimately points to the greater inheritance ahead: eternal life, the true Promised Land for all who follow the Lord wholeheartedly.

3 Key Takeaways

• Courage grows when God’s promise is valued above the size of the problem.
• Consistent faith—fed through prayer, fellowship, and Scripture—keeps us strong through long-term battles.
• Perseverance leads to victory; like Caleb, some giants fall only after years of steadfast walking with God.
