Discuss:
This guy was a giant! He was over 9 feet tall!
He wore armor that weighed 125 pounds – that’s like a small woman!
His sword weighed 15 pounds – that’s a small baby.
Goliath came and shouted at the Israelites for 40 days.
Back then, sometimes battles were fought 1 man to 1 man – not army to army.
No one wanted to fight Goliath.
David tells Saul (17-39) that he will go out and fight Goliath.
He is armed with a wooden staff, 5 stones and a slingshot!
David wins!
Notice how he had 5 stones, but it only took 1 stone. With God on your side – you always win!
