The Anointing


The Anointing

David received the Anointing for worship, for when he played the harp, then, Saul would become refreshed and well, and the evil spirit which tormented him would depart from him (I Sam. 16:23).

David also received the Anointing for warfare, for he struck and killed the lion and the bear. And he killed Goliath. David in preparation to confront the philistine Goliath, walked in the Grace of GOD Almighty, he said [verse 37 here] and he chose five smooth stones from the brook, as his sling was with him.

David forth in THE NAME OF THE LORD OF HOSTS.

Goliath, the Philistine giant, operated under the power of witchcraft—he caused the armies of Israel, and he caused David by his gods.
His height was six cubits and a span, and his iron spearhead weighed six hundred shekels.
The 6 cubits of his physical height represents satan’s influence. The word “against” is found six times in connection with the believer’s warfare with the devil:
“Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”
Eph 6:11-12 KJV

And 600 is the number of warfare (see Ex.14:7; Jdgs 18:7-11). Therefore, the 600 shekels weight-capacity of his spearhead signifies ‘satanic warfare.’ The Philistines saw Goliath as a god.

David knew that the battle belong to The LORD; he didn’t even confront Goliath with a sword.
