1Sa 17:46 “This day the LORD will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you. And this day I will give the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines to the birds of the air and the wild beasts of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.
The stage was already set ;Goliath relied on the sword and javelin, but David fought in the name of the Lord of hosts. It was a battle between the gods of the Philistines and the God of Israel . David was certainly sure who the loser was going to be.
David declared by faith what was going to happen to Goliath and the Philistine army. That God was going to deliver him into his hands. He was going to strike him and chop off his head and was going to give the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines to the birds of the air and beasts of the earth that the whole world may know that there is a God in Israel. And these is exactly what happened.
Our God is the Lord of hosts and has never lost any battle. With him on our side , we can declare victory long before the battle is fought. We declare that we shall not die before our days are over, that by the stripes of Jesus we are healed, that our children will be mighty in the land and that no weapon fashioned against us shall prosper in Jesus Name!
