FAITH CAPSULE: King David exemplifies keeping the testimony of God.

1 Samuel 17

One that shares, meditates, or confesses the testimony of God that keeps the testimony of God.
Psalm 119:2 points out the promise of God for those who keep the testimony of God, “Blessed are those who keep His testimonies, Who seek Him with the whole heart!”
King David exemplifies keeping the testimony of God.
The victory of David over Goliath of the Philistines was the provocation of the testimony of what God had done for David.
The testimony by David was the weapon that stopped King Saul to discourage David from going against Goliath. 
1 Samuel 17:33 states the discouragement of King Saul to David, “…You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.”  “
David refused to be discouraged from going to fight Goliath.
In 1 Samuel 17: 34-37, David testified what God has done and what God can do, “But David said to Saul, “Your servant used to keep his father’s sheep, and when a lion or a bear came and took a lamb out of the flock, 35 I went out after it and struck it, and delivered the lamb from its mouth; and when it arose against me, I caught it by its beard, and struck and killed it. 36 Your servant has killed both lion and bear; and this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, seeing he has defied the armies of the living God.” 37 Moreover David said, “The Lord, who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, He will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine.”
David could not be intimated not to fight the confronting challenge before his life. 
David counted on the testimony of God over his life.
David dwelt on the testimony of God over his life.
The testimony of David was able to overcome the challenge of Goliath.
What is it that you count on God for your deliverance by the testimony of your mouth?  
Know to recount the testimonies of God over your life and experience victory, the blessing of God.
With the testimony of God, give your tongue to speak life in the place of untimely death.
Proverbs 18:21 warns, “Death and life are in the power of tongue…” 
David saw challenges, testified to the power of God, and overcame them. Keep the testimonies of God by speaking out to challenges about what God has done and what He can do to enable you to overcome your challenges.
Keep the testimonies of God to meditate, confess, and be established for the glory of God.
Testifying what God has done, what He is doing, and what He will do shall provoke the blessing of God.

Prayer for today: Ask to keep the testimonies of God for your deliverance and preservation, the blessing of God.
