With just a stone

Goliath was a big threat to Israel
A giant with intimidating records 
Of military prowess which turned Israelite soldiers 
To a bunch of faithless cowards
And to an army of lily livered derelicts
As they capitulated in fear 
And let the sleeping dog lie
While Goliath had his fill
Threatening God’s own army 
But it took a lively faith and just a stone 
To bring the mountain of a giant 
Crashing to a disgraceful end
As David used faith as heavenly currency 
To purchase heavenly grace
And brought the boastful philistine
To a dismal end
Are you faced with any life’s challenges?
Look back with faith on God’s track record in your life
And be filled with amazing strength and power 
To overcome all Goliaths threatening your very existence
