God's Equipment for Your Life: Part One by Dr. Rod Mattoon

About this sermon

1 Samuel 17:38-39... And Saul armed David with his armour, and he put an helmet of brass upon his head; also he armed him with a coat of mail. 39 And David girded his sword upon his armour, and he assayed to go; for he had not proved it. And David said unto Saul, I cannot go with these; for I have not proved them. And David put them off him. IN PART ONE of this series, we find that David got the approval of King Saul to fight Goliath. The king then proceeded to put his armor on David and expected him to wear it into battle. David made it clear that he could not wear it and took it off. Saul did not realize that the Lord had already equipped David. In this message, we address the matter that God equips those whom He calls. If God is leading you to do something for His glory, He will enable you to do it. We look at some examples in the Scriptures. We also start examining God’s Equipment for Your Life. He enables the Christian to serve Him with what He provides for each Christian. In this message, we focus on how the Lord equips us by His EXAMPLE. This message was preached on Wednesday night, May 27, 2026, at Lincoln Land Baptist Church.
