Sermon: David and Goliath

1 Sam 17
-as always, God is the hero of the story. v46-47  David is a foreshadowing of Jesus coming in the new testament
-Goliath was not the opposition, fear and pride were. David knew it wasn't about himself, but about God. Giants in our lives are opportunities for people to see how awesome God is.
-God is watching and is preparing you for the battles ahead. v34-36. Ps 19:1-6 God knows what is coming in our lives, and is always preparing us to do his work and bring glory to God. God chooses nobodys to become somebodys to bring glory to God.
-Take the first step. v40. Don't hang back in fear, press forward in God's strength and power. But you'd better know God, and have faith in him. "Faith is belief plus unbelief, but acting on the belief part"
