The Spirit of the LORD came upon David


Reading about David in 1 Samuel (chronologically).

God Has a Plan For Your Life!
  • Then the Lord said, “Rise and anoint him; this is the one.”  -1 Sam. 16:12
He Wants to Annoint You; He wants to Fill you with His Spirit!
  • 13So Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the presence of his brothers, and from that day on the Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon David. -1 Sam. 13
His Spirt Will Make You Bold!
  • David asked, "...who is this uncircumcised Philistine that he should defy the armies of the living God?" - 1 Samuel 17:26
  • David continued..."The LORD who delivered me from the paw of the lion and the paw of the bear will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine."  -1 Samuel 17:37




  • David said to the Philistine (Goliath of Gath)   "...you come against me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the LORD Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel, who you have defiled.  Today I will strike you down and cut off your head". -1 Samuel 17:45
  •  As the Philistine moved closer to attack him, David ran quickly toward the battle line to meet him.  - 1 Samuel 17:48

This is a great story to remember the next time you see a 
significant battle looming.  
Seek God's Spirit and His annointing. 
...then run quickly toward your battle in God's strength!
