Page 8 - Giant Task Ahead

the last generation

There are many opinions about how this

race of giants came to be, and we won’t
entertain that here, but regardless of what

you think about their origin, here’s an
indisputable fact: Their demise brought
on the ire of Satan, and it was targeted

against the very man who took the race off
the face of the earth.

Satan Provokes David

1Ch 20:8 These were born unto the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David,
and by the hand of his servants.

1Ch 21:1 And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel.

Numbering, in and of itself is not a viola-

tion of God’s law. Indeed, in 2nd Samuel
24:1 we read: "And again the anger of the
LORD was kindled against Israel, and he

moved David against them to say, Go,
number Israel and Judah." Improper num-

bering, however, is a violation. The Lord
gives instructions in Exodus on how to
properly number.
