Series: David

Victory doesn’t depend on size but on strategy, faith, and knowing who you are in God. To win the fight, you need the right perspective, the right voice, the right weapons, and the right confidence—focusing not on fear or self, but on the power of God. Just like David, when we rely on what God has equipped us with and trust in His name, we can overcome any enemy that stands in our way.

Samuel anointed David as king, but he couldn’t rule Israel yet. Only after 15 years of waiting, under the command and service of King Saul, would David become the king of Israel. As Christians we can expect to wait – we wait on God to answer our prayers, to change lives, to speak to us, and ultimately to return. So how do we, as David writes in Psalm 40, “wait patiently for the Lord?”

In this new series, we look into the life of David, exploring how we can follow his example and become a person that God is looking for. God used David for amazing things, and we believe God wants to do the same now, with us, if we are ready. While the world may look at all kinds of things to decide if we are ready, God looks only at the heart. David, a “man after God’s own heart,” sought God, served humbly, and was completely satisfied in God.
