Praying God’s Word Wednesday #30
Today I’m praying God’s Word from a familiar story. David and Goliath fascinate me as much today as they did during my Sunday school days. Slaying a giant with no weapons to speak of? The fact that there even was a real life giant? Imagination captured!
While studying the passages, my focus stuck on the dramatic climax of this oft told tale. SPOILER ALERT:
“As the Philistine moved closer to attack him, David ran quickly toward the battle line to meet him. Reaching into his bag and taking out a stone, he slung it and struck the Philistine [giant] on the forehead. The stone sank into his forehead, and he fell facedown on the ground.” 1 Samuel 17:48-49 NIV
If you find yourself lacking context here, go read the whole thing. Look for fascinating details, such as, how young and small David was and how he refused to wear the king’s armor to fight. But I digress.
Praying God’s Word from This Passage
So I prayed:
Replace the pronouns with the appropriate ones for the person (or yourself) that you are praying for.
Praying for you in this. And don’t forget to share this on social media or with a friend who could benefit. It would mean so much to me. And if you don’t want to miss a Praying God’s Word Wednesday, subscribe over on the right hand side of this page.
