1 Samuel 17

In this powerful message from The Avenue Community Church, Pastor Tim dives into one of the most familiar yet misunderstood stories in Scripture—David and Goliath. Far more than a tale of courage and underdogs, this passage reveals the spiritual reality that our greatest victories come not by strength, but by faith. Walking through 1 Samuel 17, Pastor Tim unpacks what it means to stand firm when fear breaks the will of those around us, reminding us that the true “champions of faith” are not the strongest, but those who trust completely in the Lord. With vivid storytelling, biblical depth, and heartfelt challenge, this sermon invites us to shift our gaze from giants to God—and to remember that the battle is never ours alone. Key themes: Faith over fear · God's perspective vs. human sight · Spiritual courage · True strength in Christ Listen now and be encouraged to fight your battles with confidence that “the battle is the Lord's.”

Sermão ministrado pelo Presb. Cláudio Cruz com base em 1 Samuel 17.55—18.5. Igreja Presbiteriana Redenção.

In this series, we look at different Old Testament characters and how they lived out their faith in times of crisis, and how it points to Jesus Christ.

Guest speaker Marty Solomon reminds us that the David and Goliath story is not one of war and battle; it's a story of something else.

In 1 Samuel 17, David doesn't beat Goliath because he's strong or smart or creative or lucky. David defeats Goliath because he remembers the ways God has rescued him in the past, and he trusts God to see him through the present. When we remember the stories of God's faithfulness in our lives, we too can find the courageous faith to face our own giants.  If you prefer to listen, stream, and/or watch, join us and subscribe on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@kingwoodmethodist

We always seem to want what someone else has. It is hard not to, we are only human. However, God made us exactly how He needed us to be. He gave us exactly what we needed to serve His kingdom. So how do we serve God's kingdom when we don't feel “good enough” to be His child? God created you, God wants you, God gave up His life for you, we are good enough for Him.

Brent Wilson preaches from 1 Samuel 17 on September 14th, 2025.

David defeats Goliath   This sermon on 1 Samuel 17 calls believers to see the battle between David and Goliath as a living picture of spiritual warfare. David's refusal to wear Saul's armor shows the need to lay aside what does not fit and instead trust God with what He has already placed in our hands. The message highlights how the enemy uses weapons such as deception, division, isolation, and accusation, but like David, we must recognize these tactics and confront them in the strength of the Lord. David's confidence was not in his sling or stones, but in the name of the living God, reminding us that victory comes through faith and obedience. The sermon urges Christians to prepare in their “shepherd's field” seasons so that when giants arise, they will be ready to stand firm, act in faith, and live as witnesses to God's power and faithfulness.

Remember the successes This sermon on 1 Samuel 17 reminds listeners that the story of David and Goliath is ultimately about God's faithfulness and strength, not human power. Goliath's daily taunts instilled fear in Israel, showing how the enemy uses repetition to sow doubt and intimidation. David, arriving humbly with food for his brothers, demonstrates a heart fixed on God rather than fear of the giant. His confidence came from remembering God's past deliverance, not his own skill, and he recognized that Goliath's defiance was against the living God. The message challenges us to guard what we allow into our hearts, to be prepared for spiritual battles at any moment, and to trust God as our true champion who delivers His people in His timing.

Worship Before Warfare | 1 Samuel 17:33 | Pastor Steve Berger

“And everyone assembled here will know that the Lord rescues his people, but not with sword and spear. This is the Lord’s battle, and he will give you to us!” (1 Samuel 17:47 NLT) Several years ago, my wife and I rode the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror at Disneyland. If you’ve never been on it, it’s an elevator that drops very quickly. And that’s a scary sensation for a lot of people. Afterward, you can buy a picture of yourself taken during one of the drops. I usually don’t buy amusement park photos, but I was tempted that time because I loved the reaction of my wife in the photo. She had a look of terror on her face; I, on the other hand, was smiling. It just goes to show that people will pay money to be frightened. Unfortunately, not all frightening things are funny. The devil knows that. And he uses fear as part of his battlefield strategy. He hits us where and when we’re most vulnerable. He exploits our anxiety. He plays on our fears of failure, something happening to a loved one, financial troubles, and anything else that might rattle us. His aim is to isolate us in our fears, to separate us from the spiritual protection of our heavenly Father. The apostle Paul wrote, “And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 8:38–39 NLT). Add anything else you want to the list. It won’t change the reality. You’ll notice that “angels,” “demons,” and “the powers of hell” are conspicuously mentioned. Paul’s point is clear: The devil is unable to separate us from God. So, we must not allow him to convince us otherwise. We must not give in to fear. Fear can blind us temporarily to the truth. If it gets a toehold in our thoughts, we might start to imagine ourselves as being distant from God and perhaps even beyond His reach. That’s why it’s important to remind ourselves that every spiritual battle—including the battle against fear—is God’s, and not ours. Before David loaded the stone into his sling, he warned Goliath, “This is the Lord’s battle, and he will give you to us!” (1 Samuel 17:47 NLT). David was calm where other warriors had panicked because he knew who was really doing the fighting. In Ephesians 6, Paul discusses spiritual warfare. But before he mentions the helmet of salvation or the breastplate of righteousness or the sword of the Spirit, he says this: “Be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power” (verse 10 NLT). We cannot win spiritual battles if we rely on our own strength. And we cannot lose spiritual battles if we rely on the power of God.
