The Accomplishments of David's Past: Part 7 by Dr. Rod Mattoon

About this sermon

In PART SEVEN of the series on the “Accomplishments of David’s Past” we take a look at the Blow That David Struck from 1 Samuel 17:35. * 1 Samuel 17:35- And I went out after him, and smote him, and delivered it out of his mouth: and when he arose against me, I caught him by his beard, and smote him, and slew him. We take a close look at James 4:7 as we deal with what David did and relate it to the life of the Christian. James said in James 4:7, “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” We take some time examining the word “submit” and the lessons it provides about submitting to God. We cover five principles for the Christian who desires to be submitted to the Lord. We then look at the word “resist” and the lessons it provides us about resisting Satan. We cover five principles for believers to put into practice to help them stand for God. Toward the end of the message, we look at 1 Samuel 17:36 and the Past Victory David Recalled when he slew the lion and the bear. David’s attitude was “If God helped me then, He will help me now.” That goes for us, too. This message was preached on Sunday morning, April 26, 2026, at Lincoln Land Baptist Church.
