  Speaker 1: Then David said to the Philistine, Thou comest to me
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield.
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: But I come to thee in the name of the
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel,
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: whom thou hast defiled. 1 Samuel 17.45 Dear Lord, when
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: the problems and challenges in my life seem as big
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: as Goliath, I will mimic the thoughts and actions of David,
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: I will declare, what is this problem in front of
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: me that thinks it's bigger than the God of Abraham, Isaac,
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: and Jacob? Who are these individuals that think they can
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: stop the plans of God for my life? No, I
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: will not back down. Lord, I thank you like David
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: and his sling. You too have given me my unique
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: and special gifting to overcome any challenges I face. I
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: will not force myself to put on strategies and beliefs
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: that have not been tested in my faith walk. When
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: the problem approaches me like Goliath in the field of battle,
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: I will work with what I know has been proven
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: time and time again, my faith and trust in you, God.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: With my feet planted and my eyes fixed on my target,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: I will give it all I have and let my
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: faith and works fly. as they collide with the enemy
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: in front of me, I will let out a hallelujah
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: because it has no choice but to fall. I decree
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: that all giants must fall at the feet of my
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: Heavenly Father. This is my truth. This is my declaration.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: In Jesus' name.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Thank you for making prayer a priority in your day.

  Speaker 3: David and Goliath. In our last story, we learned about
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: God's plan to choose a new king. A king with
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: a pure heart that seeks after Him. David, a young
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: shepherd boy, no older than 17, was anointed king over
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: Israel by Samuel. David did not know that he was
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: anointed king, for only Samuel and God knew. However, from
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: that day forward, everything else would change. Now we will
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: learn about the giant Goliath posing a challenge to the
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: people of Israel. No one would step up to his challenge.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: Nobody except David. Inspired by the book of 1 Samuel.

• 3:34
  Speaker 2: went to the home of Jesse, and after passing every
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: one of Jesse's older, stronger sons, God told Samuel that
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: David was the young shepherd boy who would be the king.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: Samuel anointed David, and God's Spirit filled this young man.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: Soon David ended up in the king's palace, King Saul's palace.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: And he was called upon to play the harp for
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: Saul to soothe the king, to calm his soul that
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: was tormented by the departure of God's presence in his life.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: Today we'll see how David steps up to boldly face
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: and defeat a Philistine giant. David's confidence isn't in his
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: own strength, but in God's victory and in the promise
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: that the battle is the Lord's. Now let's listen to
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: today's reading.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: The Israelites and the Philistines stood poised for battle on
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: two hills facing each other with a valley in between them.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: The dark clouds hid the sun and hovered closely over
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: the battlefield below. Israel stood ready for battle with the
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: city of Judah behind them. The Philistines had camped close,
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: and this was Israel's last stand to ward off the
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: Philistines before they invaded Israel. Neither army desired to continue fighting.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: Too many men had been lost on both sides, yet
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: peace was not an option. The Philistines desired to enslave
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: the Israelite people. Saul stood with his men behind him.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: He was weary from battle and the disturbing images of
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: his nightmares. Saul peered at the army on the other side.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: The Philistine men began to part to make room for
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: a figure making its way to the front. The earth
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: began to shake slightly, and Saul could hear gasps from
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: his men as the figure made its way into view.
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: A soldier from the Philistine army emerged. He loomed over
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: the other Philistines. His legs were planted firmly into the
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: ground like tree trunks covered with bronze armor. He had
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: a coat of bronze mail draped over his chiseled and
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: monstrous chest. His arms were like beams of stone holding
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: up his spear and shield. He stood as six feet
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: and nine inches of raw power. His name was Goliath,
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: and he was the Philistines' champion. His smile could be
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: seen through his helmet, and he raised his voice to
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: the Israelites. He spoke with the bellowings of a god.
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: His voice seemed as though it could crack the earth.'
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: Why have you come up to battle?' Do I not
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: represent all Philistines? Choose for yourself a champion to fight me.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: If he slays me, the Philistines shall be your servants.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: But if I crush him and every bone in his body,
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: the Israelites shall bow at our feet. The men behind
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: Saul trembled in fear behind him, and he could hear
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: the rattling of shaking armor. Saul stood there silent and
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: unable to answer. Goliath smiled at their fear, and the
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: Philistine army laughed as Saul stood there paralyzed and speechless.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: Goliath raised his spear into the air and pointed it
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: towards Saul and his army. I defy you and your armies,
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: he said as he spat on the ground towards them.
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: Give me a man to fight, he shouted. Saul could
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: see the bloodlust in Goliath's eyes. He was truly a
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: monster designed for destruction. The Philistines chanted behind Goliath and
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: banged on their shields. All of Israel was dismayed and
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: beads of sweat fell from Saul's forehead. For 40 days,
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: Goliath stood at the edge of the canyon and challenged
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: the Israelites. Morning and night, Goliath's challenge would echo through
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: the Israelite camp. His bloodthirsty voice hovered over the bed
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: of Saul like a demon. Every soldier was paralyzed with fear.
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: A few weeks had passed, and David was preparing food
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: to bring back to his brothers, who served under Saul.
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: David would go to and from Israel's camp often. He
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: would tend to his father's sheep, and then travel to
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: camp to play music for Saul. Upon his father's request,
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: he packed grains and cheeses for his brothers and their commander.
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: Early in the morning, David loaded up his donkey and
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: ventured back to Israel's camp. As David approached to the camp,
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: he could hear battle cries coming from the edge of
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: the canyon. He ran towards the sound and made his
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: way up a rock to observe the battle. The two
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: armies were poised as they were before, yelling at one
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: another and goading each other into battle. However, Israel's army
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: grew silent when Goliath emerged again. David looked at Goliath closely.
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: studying his movement and mannerisms. He listened as Goliath defied
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: the armies of Israel, God, and their entire nation. He
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: watched as the men of Israel, his brothers included, cowered
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: in fear at the sight of Goliath. David climbed down
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: and walked among the men at camp. Have you seen
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: that Philistine giant? A man said to him, The king
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: has promised riches and his daughter to whoever kills him
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: in battle. David clenched his jaw. The words of the
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: giant resonated in his brain. The spirit of God inside
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: him was stirring. Who is this Philistine that he should
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: defy the armies of Israel and the living God? David said.
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: David crossed his arms and thought deeply. His brother Eliab
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: saw him from the other side of camp. He stormed
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: towards David and turned him around. What are you doing here?
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: Eliab shouted. Who have you left the sheep with this time?
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: I know why you are here, David. You just want
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: to look at the battle. David paid no attention to
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: his brother. He had just seen him run away from
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: Goliath in fear. Instead, David turned and walked toward Saul's tent.
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: Without permission to enter, David burst through the tent and
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: knelt at the foot of Saul. David, looking down at
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: the floor, said, Do not let anyone's heart fail because
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: of the giant. I will go up against him. Saul
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: and the others in his tent held in chuckles. Saul
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: helped David up on his feet and said, You are
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: not able to go up against him. You are a boy,
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: and he has been killing since he was a boy.
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: David gave a slight grin. His eyes were gleaming with
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: intensity and hope. David looked up and said, As you know,
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: I keep the sheep for my father. Anytime there was
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: a lion or bear that stole away a lamb from
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: the flock, I would go after it and strike it down.
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: I have delivered sheep from the jaws of lions. I
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: have struck them down. This Philistine shall be like one
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: of them, for he has threatened the sheep of God.
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: Saul and the others gritted their teeth and looked at
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: one another with concerned faces. David continued, saying, The Lord
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: has delivered me from the paw of the lion and
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: the claw of the bear. He will deliver me from
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: the hand of this giant. Saul looked down at David.
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: He stroked his beard and let out a sigh. He
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: was old and unable to fight Goliath, but perhaps this
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: boy had the anointing of God. David held his breath,
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: waiting for Saul's answer. He looked again at David and said, Go,
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: may the Lord be with you. Then Saul immediately went
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: to the chest laying at the foot of his throne.
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: You will need these, Saul said as he took out
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: his armor and began to dress David in it. He
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: put a helmet of bronze on his head and draped
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: a coat of mail over his body. He strapped his
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: sword over his shoulder and tightened his belt to keep
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: the armor together. David waddled in place, almost unable to
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: move under the sheer weight of Saul's armor. David gave
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: Saul a concerned look and said, My king, I cannot
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: go out and battle with these. So David took off
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: the armor. David nodded to Saul, picked up his shepherd's staff,
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: and walked out of the tent. David passed by a
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: creek bed to choose five smooth stones. He put them
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: in his shepherd's pouch as he prayed to God for strength.
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: Without armor, having only his staff and sling, David ran
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: towards the battlefield. David came into the middle of the valley.
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: The mumbles of Israelite soldiers could be heard from above.
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: They watched David as he approached Goliath. The two stood
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: about fifty yards away from one another. The giant looked
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: down and saw David. Goliath laughed and spat towards him, saying,
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: Am I a dog that you come to me with
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: a stick? He pounded his spear against his shield and
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: cursed David by his guards. Goliath's smile turned into a scowl.
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: He spoke only to David now. He did not yell
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: or raise his voice for others to hear. He simply
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: looked at David intensely and said, Come to me, boy.
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: I will give your flesh for the birds and beasts
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: to feast on. David met Goliath's hateful gaze and said,'
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: You come to me with sword, spear, and javelin, but
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: I come to you in the name of the Lord
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: of heaven and earth. It is he you have defied.'
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: David pointed his staff to Goliath and raised his voice
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: for all to hear, saying,' Today the Lord will deliver
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: you into my hand. I will strike you down, and
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: your head will roll off your body.' The birds and
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: beasts will feast on your corpse, and all the world
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: shall know that there is a God in Israel who
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: fights for us. At that moment, Goliath ran towards David
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: in a fury. The giant shook the earth below him
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: as he mounted an attack. David planted his feet firmly
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: into the ground. He drew a stone from his bag
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: and placed it in the leather cradle of his sling.
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: All was silent, and David could only hear the sound
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: of his breathing. David had one chance to hit the giant.
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: If he missed, there would be no second shot. David
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: wore no helmet. It would only cast a shadow on
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: his vision, and his aim must be precise. David wore
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: no breastplate. It was heavy on his chest, and his
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: breathing must be unhindered. His sling swung in place behind
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: him as Goliath narrowed the gap between them. The giant's
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: legs burst with power, ready to launch towards him. David
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: swung his hips and released the stone into the air.
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: It released with precision, whistling through the air towards Goliath.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: A direct hit.
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: The stone sank into his forehead and cracked his skull.
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: The giant's leap was interrupted as he fell to the floor.
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: The earth quaked as his massive body hit the dirt.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: The giant lay there motionless. David wasted no time. He
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: ran toward the Philistine, took his sword from his hand
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: and drove it straight through his neck. David held the
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: head of Goliath in his hand for all the Philistines
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: to see. David could hear a roar of men storming
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: behind him as the armies of Israel crossed the valley
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: towards the Philistines. They passed David and ran towards the enemy.
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: The Philistines ran as the children of Israel stormed their camp.
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: David pursued the Philistines alongside them and began to fight
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: alongside his brothers. As the battle raged on, Saul saw
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: David from a distance fighting with fury, tact, and skill.
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: Who is that warrior? Saul asked his commander. That is David,
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: the commander replied. So all of Israel was liberated at
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: the hands of David. David brought back the armor of Goliath,
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: and the entire nation shouted in victory and praise over him.
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: David's heart of courage spoke of a greater story happening
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: in Israel. a story of a shepherd who would lay
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: down his life to save his sheep, a shepherd who
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: would fight lions, giants, and armies to restore his sheep
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: to green pastures and still waters. David's bravery mirrored the
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: shepherding heart of God over Israel. God would use David
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: in years to come to shepherd and guide his sheep
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: into prosperity, safety, and refreshment. One day, God would send
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: another shepherd that would rise from Bethlehem, a shepherd who.
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: Today's story begins with two enemies poised, ready for battle.
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: The Philistines and Israelites each camped on hills facing each other.
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: For now there is only the threat of imminent war,
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: but the Philistines have a secret weapon. A ferocious, terrifying
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: giant by the name of Goliath. a man more powerful
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: than anyone on either side of the fight. This giant
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: struck fear in the hearts of his own people, let
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: alone the Israelites who watched him from a distance. Goliath
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: was not only a giant, powerful and strong, he was
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: also brash and confident, unafraid of any man who would
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: come against him. So Goliath shouted his challenge to Saul's army.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: Rather than send armies against each other, they would settle
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: this one on one. Goliath would stand for the Philistines
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: and Israel would send out their best hope, their best fighter.
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: Should the Israelite challenger win, the Philistines would serve them. Otherwise,
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: Israel would be slaves to the Philistines. Saul and his
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: men were unwilling to take this challenge. They were all
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: terrorized by this giant. No one stepped forward. But Goliath
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: kept issuing the challenge. For 40 days, he taunted and
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: terrified Saul's army, showing nothing but contempt and anger. He
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: ridiculed not just them, but their God as well, blaspheming
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: the God of heaven. Goliath respected no man or God.
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: When David went to the battlefield to take food to
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: his brothers, he heard Goliath's threats and insults. The giant
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: was disrespecting Almighty God, and David was full of faith.
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: and zealous and mighty in the power of God. So
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: he told Saul that he would face the terrible giant.
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: This seemed like a ridiculous proposition, of course. Saul told
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: David as much and said that he couldn't send him
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: into a fight destined for death. But David told Saul
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: of the beast that he had faced, and as a shepherd,
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: how he had defeated lions and bears. Then in 1
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: Samuel 17, verse 37, David says this, The Lord who
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: delivered me from the paw of the lion and from
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: the paw of the bear will deliver me from the
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: hand of this Philistine. David understood that all he needed
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: was the power and the promise of God. The size
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: of the enemy is unimportant when the Lord is on
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: your side. And yes, the battle is the Lord's. So
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: David faced off against the giant. He refused to wear
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: the king's armor, which was heavy and weighing him down.
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: and he faced him like a shepherd with a sling
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: and some stones and the power of God. Goliath mocked
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: David and blasphemed God. But David told Goliath that it
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: was not him that he was facing but the Lord
• 18:58

• 19:01
  Speaker 2: his hands. David hurled his stone that sunk deep into
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: Goliath's forehead, and the fearsome warrior fell. David ran to

• 19:26
  Speaker 2: about God's power to defeat every enemy that opposes him.
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: God will not be mocked. And he mightily used David
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: to show just how powerful he is to accomplish his purposes.

• 19:41
  Speaker 2: Jesus Christ, who would one day slay the greatest giant
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: of all, the giant of sin and death. David was
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: now a course, a hero to the people, and his
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: legend would only grow. We'll hear more of his journey,
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: his highs and lows, in tomorrow's episodes. God, help us
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: always to remember that the battle is your battle, that
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: we fight from a position of strength and power when
• 20:07
