Bible Speaks

David and Goliath
THE Phi·lisʹtines again come to fight against Israel. David’s three oldest brothers are now in Saul’s army. So one day Jesʹse tells David: ‘Take some grain and loaves of bread to your brothers. Find out how they are getting along.’
When David arrives at the army camp, he runs to the battle line to look for his brothers. The Phi·lisʹtine giant Go·liʹath comes out to make fun of the Israelites. He has been doing this every morning and evening for 40 days. He yells: ‘Choose one of your men to fight me. If he wins and kills me, we will be your slaves. But if I win and kill him, you will be our slaves. I dare you to pick someone to fight me.’
David asks some of the soldiers: ‘What will the man get who kills this Phi·lisʹtine and frees Israel from this shame?’
‘Saul will give the man many riches,’ the soldier says. ‘And he will give him his own daughter to be his wife.’
But all the Israelites are afraid of Go·liʹath because he is so big. He is more than 9 feet (about 3 meters) tall, and he has another soldier carrying his shield for him.
Some soldiers go and tell King Saul that David wants to fight Go·liʹath. But Saul tells David: ‘You can’t fight this Phi·lisʹtine. You are just a boy, and he has been a soldier all his life.’ David answers: ‘I killed a bear and a lion that carried off my father’s sheep. Andthis Phi·lisʹtine will become like one of them. Jehovah will help me.’ So Saul says: ‘Go, and may Jehovah be with you.’
David goes down by a stream and gets five smooth stones, andputs them into his bag. Then he takes his sling and goes out to meet the giant. When Go·liʹathsees him, he can’t believe it. He thinks it will be so easy to kill David.
‘Just come to me,’ Go·liʹath says, ‘and I will give your body to the birds and animals to eat.’ But David says: ‘You come to me with a sword, a spear and a javelin, but I am coming to you with the name of Jehovah. This day Jehovah will give you into my hands and I will strike you down.’
At that David runs toward Go·liʹath. He takes a stone from his bag, puts it into his sling, andthrows it with all his might. The stone flies straight into Go·liʹath’s head, and he falls down dead! When the Phi·lisʹtines see that their champion has fallen, they all turn and run. The Israelites run after them and win the battle.
1 Samuel 17:1-54.
We today show courage and faith in Jehovah of Armies he will help us to fight all our battles.

- Be Careful How You Treat Her -

Assign them honor as to a weaker vessel, the feminine one, since they are also heirs with you of the undeserved favor of life, in order for your prayers not to be hindered."

No resident will say: “I am sick.”—Isa. 33:24.

If we maintain our Christian integrity, we may well witness one of the greatest miracles of all time—the miracle of surviving the great tribulation. Soon after the war of Armageddon, more miracles will occur, restoring humans to good health. (Isa. 35:5, 6; Rev. 21:4) Imagine watching people discard eyeglasses, canes, crutches, wheelchairs, hearing aids, and the like. Armageddon survivors will have work to do. They can move forward with zest to make our planet, a gift from God, into a global paradise. (Ps. 115:16) Jesus’ healings in the past encourage the “great crowd” today, reinforcing their joyous prospect of being healed of all ills. (Rev. 7:9) Those healings reflected his deep feelings and showed just how much love God’s firstborn Son has for mankind. (John 10:11; 15:12, 13) Jesus’ compassion paints a touching portrait of Jehovah’s concern for each one of his servants.—John 5:19. w15 6/15 2:16, 17

Si somos leales hasta el fin, podremos experimentar uno de los milagros más grandes de todos los tiempos: pasar con vida a través de la “gran tribulación”. Pero eso no es todo. Poco después del Armagedón, los sobrevivientes recuperarán milagrosamente la salud (Is. 35:5, 6; Rev. 21:4). ¿Se imagina ver a quienes están a su alrededor deshaciéndose de lentes, bastones, muletas, sillas de ruedas y ayudas auditivas? Los sobrevivientes del Armagedón tendrán mucho trabajo que hacer. Con fuerzas renovadas, podrán poner manos a la obra y convertir el planeta que Dios nos ha dado en un hermoso paraíso (Sal. 115:16). Las curaciones que hizo Jesús animan mucho a quienes forman parte de la “gran muchedumbre”, pues refuerzan su confianza en que muy pronto desaparecerán por completo todas sus dolencias (Rev. 7:9). Aquellos milagros fueron una muestra de los tiernos sentimientos de Cristo y de lo mucho que nos quiere (Juan 10:11; 15:12, 13). Su compasión también nos recuerda el interés y el cariño profundos que Jehová siente por cada uno de sus siervos (Juan 5:19). w15 15/6 2:16, 17

What was that crazy guy saying? I did make out, "Read your Bible," a couple of times, but most of what he said was unintelligible to me. I would give the brother and sister high marks for maintaining their composure during the verbal onslaught.
