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

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 22, 2024

     | 1,255 views

    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

    David's Victory Speech Series

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 16, 2022
     | 3,725 views

    A rousing speech is very important, and that's what we see in I Samuel 17 with a very young man named David. His speech was exactly what the Israelites needed to hear in their dark hour.

    When it comes to great speeches, Winston Churchill has given some of the greatest. His speeches were often inspiring. On June 4, 1940, he gave a rousing speech to the British Parliament’s House of Commons. Listen to his words: “We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight ...read more

    There was no question that David was the underdog. But there was also no question about God’s help. How do we face our giants? There were odds, there was opposition and there was Divine help.

    David faced a great challenge as he stood before Goliath. It was the greatest miss-match of all time, and yet he was triumphant. We too face giants as we strive to serve the Lord, but like David, we can overcome in the Lord. Christ secured victory for us!
