Today, we look at 5 gifts we can take advantage of to help us stand strong when we are under spiritual attack. We unpack some lessons straight from David’s playbook.

We dive into 1 Samuel and the story of David and Goliath—not just for inspiration, but for strategy. Because David didn’t just walk into battle with confidence. He walked in prepared. He brought five stones. In this episode, we unpack five spiritual weapons we can carry in our pouch, too.

In "5 Biblical Gifts to Help Us Stand Strong," we discuss:

  • Why knowing your personal weak spots is actually powerful
  • Five“stones” from Scripture that prepare us to stand strong when we are under spiritual attack
  • The difference between your God-given identity and your God-ordained gifting and limitations
  • Why Biblical community isn’t just helpful—it’s essential
  • How the character of God becomes our comfort and our confidence

Scripture mentioned to help us stand strong:

  • 1 Samuel 16-17
  • Romans 8:11, 26, 28
  • Philippians 4:13
  • Philippians 2:13
  • Isaiah 55:11
