David: Portrait of a Champion (Part 6)

Champions Don’t Lose Their Confidence

In Champions Don’t Lose Their Confidence, Dr. Michael Youssef proclaims the unshakable truth that God’s champions live with unwavering dependence on the Lord. Drawing from 1 Samuel 23, this episode reveals David’s transformation from a fugitive to a faithful warrior who inquires of the Lord, obeys without compromise, and resists the pull of detractors. As David refuses to rely on human wisdom or the applause of men, he anchors himself in God’s will and emerges victorious. Dr. Youssef warns that those out of step with God’s commands—like Saul—remain blind to His purposes. But those who walk in obedience, like David, are protected and empowered. This is a call to trust fully in the God who delivers, to live by His Word, and to stand firm in faith amidst spiritual battles.
