"Though an army may encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war may rise against me, in this I will be confident." Psalm 27.3David was a man of war and conquests because He trusted in his parent's God. He knew that God would never leave him alone. Confident is the key word in this verse. This is the kind of faith that pleases the Lord.

THIRSTY HEART
"For the word of God is living and powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit and of joints and marrow and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart." Hebrews 4:12When the Holy Spirit finds a heart that is thirsty to know Him, His voice is heard in the person's spirit. From that moment on there is transformation of life.
Usually, the heart is hungry for solutions to circumstantial problems, which makes it difficult to receive His Son and Savior Jesus.

HE FIRST LOVED
"We love Him because He first loved us." 1 John 4:19Even though we are sinners and have no merits, we were shown the love of the Lord God when He sent His only Son to die for us. Therefore, when you recognize that love and have faith in Him, you become His child. And because of that, you also gain his character traits.

IMAGE OF THE CREATOR
"And have put on the new man who is renewed in knowledge according to the image of Him who created him." Colossians 3:10The new birth gives the children of God a new life. As much as you may prophesy about it, it still remains difficult for those who haven't been born of the Spirit to understand.
Knowledgeable and enlightened minds, and above all, being according to the image of God the Father. The children of God see and think according to Him.
TRANSFIGURED
"And He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light." Matthew 17:2Surely, the Mount of Transfiguration remained marked in the lives of the three apostles. They saw what they would later experience after receiving the Holy Spirit: transformed life. New spirit, new heart and new character. A character after the Father's, the Son's and the Holy Spirit's own character. This is the transformation that happens when you are born of the Spirit.

SHADOW OF YOUR WINGS
"How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God! Therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of Your wings." Psalm 36:7The experience of the goodness of God meets the spirit's needs and gives peace to the soul.

HUNGER
"Behold, the days are coming," says the Lord God, "That I will send famine on the land, not a famine of bread, nor a famine of water, but of hearing the words of the Lord." Amos 8:11Satisfy your hunger while there is food, because the manna of God won't be around forever...
Unbelief, spiritual coldness, lack of love and fear are some of the signs that precede the arrival of this famine.
