“Today, the Lord will hand you over to me. Today, I’ll strike you down, remove your head, and give the corpses of the Philistine camp to the birds of the sky and the wild creatures of the earth. Then all the world will know that Israel has a God, and this whole assembly will know that it is not by sword or by spear that the Lord saves, for the battle is the Lord’s. He will hand you over to us.””
1 Samuel 17:46-47 CSB
David’s humility and confidence in God accomplishing the task is amazing! This is the first glimpse of what it looks like to be “a man after Gods own heart”! Lord, help me to depend wholly on You to accomplish Your plans…and less on my own skills and abilities.
