Lets eliminate the Giant

2 Sam 21:16And Ishbi–benob, which was of the sons of the giant, the weight of whose spear weighed three hundred shekels of brass in weight, he being girded with a new sword, thought to have slain David.

17But Abishai the son of Zeruiah succoured him, and smote the Philistine, and killed him….

Here we find David being rescued by Abishai when a giant almost killed him. This is one of four testimonies in 2 Sam 21 of heroes in Israel killing giants. Without a doubt this is a result of them seeing what David did to Goliath. So in a way you can say that because David killed Goliath, he is now rescued or saved from being killed by a giant himself.

When David killed Goliath, he didn’t have to. He was not pressed into a corner. He was not challenged personly. He was not even a soldier. No one expected him to do anything. It was not really his fight. But he felt it was his responsibility as long as he challenged his God and defiled his name. This Giant was standing in the way for Gods people moving forward.

The moral of this story is this: If you kill someone else Giant, someone one else will kill yours. Its tempting to think: That’s not my problem, that’s not my cancer. Its not I that have financial problems, etc etc. But if we pray as it was our giant. If we fast and pray, and help killing other peoples giant, then when we have a giant, they will help us. When we have cancer and need people to not only say they will pray, but actually do it. When I face a mountain, and feel I am sinking, someone else will stretch out a hand and help.
