ONE SLING SHOT WILL DO
PART VII
"I, David, the youngest son of Jesse, heard the shout of the Philistine giant named Goliath.... I did not hear his shout because I am in the land of the Philistines... No, he made his shout right here in my country Israel... In the Valley of Elah... He was able to do so because he had come with the Philistine army to my country Israel.... They have gathered against the Israeli army in the Valley of Elah... No doubt, the Philistine army wants to overwhelm the Israeli army by using this giant against them....I have to say he is a giant...It looks to me that he is at least nine feet tall... Not only is he tall... He is obviously very strong...And I have just found out that he is very LOUD!!...And I can see that the tactics of the Philistine army have been successful so far... For they have made the Israeli army become so fearful that they have begun to run away... But that must be stopped...They have obviously forgotten who they are.... They have forgotten that they are not the army of Saul... But the army of the living God....Anyway, I know who they are... I may not be a soldier... For I am only a shepherd...But I know that the Israeli army is not just an ordinary army... They are an extra-ordinary army... Not because of who they are... But because of the God they serve... It is time for the Israeli army to once again find out who they really are... And it is time for the Philistine army to know that their giant is nothing more than an uncircumcised giant... He may be tall, strong and loud... But he is no match for our God!"... Please read the typed out attachment when you will learn that David declares who the Philistine giant really is...

ONE SLING SHOT WILL DO
PART VII
David, the youngest son of Jesse, sees the Israeli army run from the Philistine army in fear of the intimidating words of the Philistine giant named Goliath when he shouts to them his usual morning defiant shout. However. David's response is not the same as that of the soldiers of the Israeli army as you can read in 1 Samuel 17:26b
"...... Who is this uncircumcised Philistine that he should defy the armies of the living God."
When the Israeli army runs away from the Philistine army in fear of the Philistine giant Goliath, David does not move for David knows that this huge man is nothing more than an uncircumcised Philistine and can easily be defeated with the help of their God.
