    Samuel

    

    My infoscan is indexing the story of an important man named SAMUEL. He was born in Ramah in the hill country of Ephraim. Samuel served as a judge and prophet for Israel. He was very wise and heard from the Lord. God instructed Samuel to anoint Saul as King of Israel. Later, when Saul disobeyed God, God led Samuel to anoint David, so David would then replace Saul as the King of Israel. That’s when the story really gets exciting.

    David

    

    My infoscan says that DAVID was the youngest of Jesse’s eight sons. David obeyed his father and carried out his family responsibilities. During his life he was a shepherd, musician, poet, soldier and king. A pretty busy fellow, for real. Samuel anointed him as king but it was many years before he actually became king of Israel. (1 Samuel:16) One of his most famous feats was his encounter with Goliath, click here to learn more about this event and much more.

    Goliath

    

    Whoa! More incoming data. GOLIATH was born in Gath and he grew to be a giant of a man. He was a soldier who fought in the Philistine army. As the army of Saul formed a battle line against the invading Philistines, Goliath, their champion, stepped forward and challenged the Israelites to send a man against him in single combat to decide which army would claim victory.
