Read 1 Samuel 17:36-37 – “Your servant has killed both the lion and the bear; this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, because he has defied the armies of the living God. The LORD who delivered me from the paw of the lion and the paw of the bear will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine." Saul said to David, "Go, and the LORD be with you."
David had learned lessons in private that would make him a public hero. If he would have failed in private, he would have been exposed as a failure in public. Men, if you win the battle of temptation in your private moments, God will give you public victories in life. Too many men will never get to fight in the arena of the Goliaths because they have not destroyed their private lions and bears. Win in private, and you will win in public.
