Fear can grip you, change your perspective, and keep you from moving forward. In 1 Samuel 17, the army of Israel faced Goliath but froze in fear for 40 days—never seeking God for help. David, though young and inexperienced in battle, responded differently. He had learned to trust God in smaller challenges and saw Goliath not as an unbeatable giant but as someone defying the living God.
You, too, will face moments where fear feels overwhelming, but God’s Word calls you to “fear not” and trust Him. This message shows how faith in God’s power can break fear’s hold and give you the courage to act.
