1 Samuel 17
Today’s Passage: 1 Samuel 17
Enjoy this jumpstart today written by Tim Parsons - founding pastor of CPC - and pray about how you can (1) stand for God’s name and (2) join His mission.
Standing Up...
Today we read one of the most well known stories in the entire Bible – the story of David and Goliath. David, through the anointing of the Holy Spirit kills a nine-foot giant defying the armies of the Lord and the Name of the Lord. What he did took courage – a belief in God and His strength to protect.

David stood because...
● He knew the cause was worth it.
...he has defied the armies of the living God. (v. 36b)
● He knew that God would protect him.
The Lord who rescued me from the claws of the lion and the bear will
rescue me from this Philistine!” (v.37)
● He knew God would give him the victory.
Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God. Psalm 20:7
What will you stand up for today? Remember – If you don’t stand for something, you will fall for anything!
