Dddd,
You can either Forward the IP by putting http:// in front of the IP as though it's the web address(http://123.456.789.1)/ or you could edit the domain's A Record and point it directly to the IP instead of using a forward.

Basically, you will want to research dns forwarding. (http://freedns.afraid.org/)
You'll set up and account and forward the dns to your IP address.. then you will have to go to your godaddy account and set the nameservers to that which freedns tells you to use..
Godaddy is a piece of **** service anyways. They lock and froze my domain for 2 years because I told them i was going to take it to another provider. Name.com is a much better service, and gives you alot more freedom over dns.
