I Samuel 17: 44-47 (NKJV)
44 And the Philistine (Goliath) said to David, "Come to me, and I will
give your flesh to the birds of the air and the beasts of the field!"
45 Then David said to the Philistine, "You come to me with a sword,
with a spear, and with a javelin. But I come to you in the name of the
LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.
46 "This day the LORD will deliver you into my hand, .... that all the
earth may know that there is a God in Israel.
47 "Then all this assembly shall know that the LORD does not save with
sword and spear; for the battle is the LORD'S, and He will give you into
our hands."

The battle between Goliath and David, is another one which is really a
battle between good and evil!
Goliath came to David in his own power!
David claimed the power of the LORD!
Today we as followers of Jesus Christ continue to be in a battle against
evil. We must remember that we do not fight in our own power, but that
the battle indeed is the Lord's. We are simply instruments in His hands.
That is not an excuse to stand by and do nothing. But it is a reminder
that we must be in the hand of the LORD!
Let Him use you and give Him the glory!
