Have you ever faced a challenge that felt impossible — a situation so overwhelming that fear seemed louder than your faith? In this message, Pastor Steven Staton walks us through 1 Samuel 17 and reminds us that the story of David and Goliath is not ultimately about our strength, our courage, or “facing our giants.” It’s about God’s glory, God’s power, and God’s Champion.

While Israel trembled before Goliath, God raised up an unlikely deliverer in David — a shepherd boy armed not with skill or size, but with confidence in the Lord. Yet this moment points to something far greater: Jesus, the true and better David, who stepped onto the battlefield of sin and death and won the victory we never could.

This message will challenge and encourage you to shift your focus from the size of your battles to the greatness of your God. You’ll discover why we don’t fight for victory but from victory — because our Champion has already won.

Key Scriptures:

1 Samuel 17
