Who Do You Think You Are, Goliath? (1 Samuel 17: 1-54)

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 22, 2024

One of the unfortunate realities about living in this world is the existence of bullies who intimidate and threaten others. The Bible describes one such bully named Goliath. His threats against Israel and God ceased when he encountered David and one smooth stone.

Bullies have existed in this fallen world ever since Cain killed Abel at the beginning of civilization (Genesis 4:8). However, as the days get darker spiritually and the love of people grows cold (Matthew 24:12; Romans 1:18-32), the problem of bullying is only going to grow like a cancer across ...read more

Our Response To Victory Youth Sermon

Contributed by Youth Sermons on Sep 5, 2023

Our victory comes from God and we should give Him all the glory. We should also ensure to finish what we start, just like Jesus finished His mission on the cross.

So, in 1 Samuel 17:40-54, after David takes down Goliath, the Philistines freak out and run away. They had all their hopes pinned on Goliath, and when he went down, they were toast. It's like when your phone dies and you don't have a charger - total panic, right? But this shows us that we shouldn't ...read more

You Will Win!

Contributed by Matthew Cox on Jun 14, 2025

A message to encourage you and strengthen you as you go through the battle.

(I). When we read the David and Goliath story we realize the following: 1. Goliath thought because David had only a stick, that he was easily going to defeat David. (1 Samuel 17:41-44) 2.

It Wasn't The Stone — It Was The Anointing! By Pastor Joseph Ondu

Contributed by Joseph Ondu on Jul 23, 2025

Goliath was a mighty warrior, a giant over 9 feet tall, armored with bronze. David was a shepherd boy, inexperienced in war, young. In the natural, David did not stand a chance against Goliath. But David was carrying something that Goliath did not have the anointing of God.
