Everyone wants to be successful at the things that they try to do in this life and the books written on how to be more successful are too numerous to count. The Bible calls us to strive for success as God defines it, not as the world defines it, and the story of David defeating Goliath is an excellent example of success achieved God’s way. David knew that the specific purpose of his life, as it is for the rest of us, was to proclaim and demonstrate the greatness of God to those around him. David also knew that God had been preparing him for success in this battle through the previous fights that God had brought him through. David acknowledged that it was God who gave him the means to be successful and not his own strength and ability. David had also thought through the obstacles he might face and had a plan for overcoming them.
