1 Samuel 17:4-11 CSB

Title: David
Reference: 1 Samuel 17:4–11
Speaker: Ben Beasley, BenB@cckc.church

And a God focused heart opens the door to a God focused life.

This fellow has mocked “the ranks of the living God.” If God is so identified with Israel, do you think he is indifferent toward such slurs on his reputation? Do you expect a living God to allow an uncircumcised Philistine to trample his name in military and theological mud? Israel thought the Philistine invulnerable; for David he was only uncircumcised. A living God gives a whole new view of things. - Ralph Davis, 1 Samuel: Looking on the Heart

– Considers God first

– See your Monday as the primary place God is with you and forming you.

While David knelt by the brook, the world was bounded on one side by the arrogant and bullying people of Philistia and on the other side by the demoralized and anxious people of Israel. To the north of the brook the powerful but stupid giant; to the south of the brook the anointed but deeply flawed king. No one could have guessed that the young man picking stones out of the brook was doing the most significant work of the day…The only person fully in touch with reality that day was David…Only a prayer-saturated imagination accounts for what made holy history that day—the striking immersion in God-reality, the robust exhibitionism of David-humanity - Eugene Peterson, Leap Over a Wall
