Topic: God can develop your trust in
Him until it becomes an unshakable force.
The Lord had developed David’s trust in Him until it had become an unshakable force.
This is why David could say to his people, “Who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?” (2 Samuel 17:26).
The Israelites only saw a giant who could not be overcome in battle. But David saw an opportunity for the Lord to show up on His people’s behalf. And he was willing to step into the fray to make that happen.
The Philistine said, “I defy the armies of Israel this day; give me a man, that we may fight together.” When Saul and all Israel heard these words of the Philistine, they were dismayed and greatly afraid (1 Samuel
17:10–11).
