When the shepherding lad, David, went to check on his brothers in the army, he was alarmed to find them paralyzed with fear because of the threats of a Philistine giant named Goliath. The whole army seemed stupefied, from King Saul down to the lowest ranks. David offered to take on the giant, but his brothers were scornful and Saul was doubtful. You are a youth, Saul said. But David told him how he had killed the lion and the bear that had threatened his flocks. In verse 37, he said, The LORD, who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, He will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine. Our Lords past performance of faithfulness is an ever-present comfort during times of distress. One of the reasons God allows trials is to strengthen our faith for the future. Dont waste yesterdays lessons by forgetting the deliverance of God. The same God who delivered you from the lion and the bear will give you victory and grace today and tomorrow.
