* The culture of the Israelites was oral - they held onto stories passed down through the generations.

* One of the stories that Moses repeated before the people entered the Promised Land was how they defeated the giant, Og.

* He was one of the largest men recorded in the Bible (12 ft tall weighing nearly 500 lbs).

* Moses was like, “Don’t forget we kicked Og’s butt.”

* Og was mentioned numerous times after this, as the news of his demise spread even among the enemies of Israel.

* EX: Tori was asked to speak at a conference and she was so scared.

* Then a friend of hers reminded her of all the stuff she had done before that was much harder.

* It encouraged her to speak with confidence.

* Remembering what God has done in the past gives us power for the present.
