Topic: THE GOLIATH
Word: 1 Samuel 17:4 KJV
“And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.”
Here's My Take:
Intro..
“As Goliath moved closer to attack, David quickly ran out to meet him. Reaching into his shepherd’s bag and taking out a stone, he hurled it with his sling and hit the Philistine in the forehead. The stone sank in, and Goliath stumbled and fell face down on the ground. So David triumphed over the Philistine with only a sling and a stone, for he had no sword. Then David ran over and pulled Goliath’s sword from its sheath.”
“David used it to kill him and cut off his head. When the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they turned and ran. Then the men of Israel and Judah gave a great shout of triumph and rushed after the Philistines, chasing them as far as Gath and the gates of Ekron.”
“The bodies of the dead and wounded Philistines were strewn all along the road from Shaaraim, as far as Gath and Ekron. (David took the Philistine’s head to Jerusalem, but he stored the man’s armor in his own tent.)”
— 1 Samuel 17:48-52, 54 NLT
Conclusion:
Your Goliath may be giant and powerful yet it can be stopped. Every Goliath has a limitation. Also every Goliath has a David to stop him.
Song:
but that thy blood was shed for me,
and that thou bidd'st me come to thee,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come.
Prayer:
Lord help me to put a stop to every Goliath that has come to trouble my life. Amen.
