Have you ever felt paralyzed by fear when facing impossible odds? In this biblical account from 1 Samuel 13–15, Pastor Ricky shows how our perspective shapes our actions—we can either fixate on obstacles like Saul, steering ourselves toward disaster, or we can see God’s presence and power like Jonathan, steering toward triumph. But our ultimate hope isn’t in becoming like Jonathan, but in following Jesus, our true hero who descended into death’s valley and rose victorious, knowing that “some trust in chariots and horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.”
