Earlier in his life, when he faced Goliath in 1 Samuel 17, no one in Israel had the courage to step forward. The entire army cowered in fear, including King Saul. David changed that narrative. Under his leadership, Israel was no longer afraid of giants. Now, in 2 Samuel 21, we see the evidence of this shift. The men who follow David are no longer afraid to step up and fight the giants themselves. Sibbecai, Elhanan, and Jonathan all defeat formidable Philistine warriors, showing us that courage is contagious. What kind of legacy are we leaving behind? Are we inspiring bold faith in those who come after us? The goal of every believer should be to raise up others who will stand boldly for Christ.
