Dear brothers of the block chain:

To you who belong to the special people of God, and who continue to believe in Jesus Christ and live very close to him, I send you my regards.

Introduction

Remember this, dear reader, every time God compels us to face trials and tribulations, he provides us with the necessary courage to overcome them. David was a man of great courage and not just a brave man, because his courage was rooted in the sovereignty of God. In 1 Samuel 17 we see in action the supernatural power of God in the life of David. From this chapter we can learn the following aspects that we will be developing.

1. Defeat is never a viable option for the brave person.

David never considered the alternative of being defeated by Goliath. The brave refuse to seek escape routes. They fix their gaze on progress and victory. Never enter a battle with thoughts of defeat because in this way you will lose all the times. Courageous men and women know that their success is in our unwavering God.

2. The brave ones remember the past victories and the fidelity of God.

David had already faced enemies as dangerous as Goliath. In the moments before the battle, he remembered how God had strengthened him in the past to kill a lion and a bear. I expected to receive the same kind of help that would prevail against Goliath.

3. The value is produced by the correct attitude.

David knew he could not win by his own strength. He knew that God had to be with him or suffer defeat.

4. Brave people look to God and trust in their direction.

David's brothers made fun of him. Saul doubted it. Goliath mocked him. All that negativism did not affect David. Every time God calls you to follow him, expect opposition, even from those you least expect.

5. Genuine courage is immune to internal fears and external difficulties.

Those who refuse to believe in God do not care about the person of value. Take time to study the Word of God and apply its principles to your life. As long as you lean on the promises of the Word of God, you can always face your enemies with their heads held high.

6. A brave person makes creative use of available resources.

David selected five smooth stones and his sling as combat weapons, instead of the heavy armor of Saul. He faced Goliath dressed in the powerful faith of the living God. No human being can defeat anyone who has a faith centered on God!

7. A person with the value attribute faces his opponent with the certainty that God will give him success in the end if he obeys it.

If we face the trials of life by faith, as David did, we will become men and women of value and victory will always be ours.
