"And David took his stick in his hand and chose for himself five smooth stones from the brook, and put them in the shepherd's bag which he had, and his sling was in his hand; and he approached the Philistine."
While facing the giant Goliath, the Lord had David choose five smooth stones as projectiles he would use with his slingshot. Though it would take only one stone to take him out, the Lord had made provision for the other giants he would eventually face. God knew what was to come, and He would provide the weaponry to face all comers. God does the same things for us, bible study, prayer fellowship , communion and worship to name just a few, become part of the repertoire that He has provided for us. Be sure to be well equipped in Christ.

Opportunities
"I'm Okay, I'm Good"--Answers we've often heard. At times we come to church burdened, and we go home taking the same burden, rather than asking for prayer. Don't take your burdens home with you today.
Prayer Points
Lahaina Rebuild - Prayer for our Sister Churches - We stand in the gap for our fellow Calvary Chapels, many going through things of transition, some even going through pilikia. We stand in a tenuous place, praying for the wellbeing of the church. Don't discount our effectiveness as we pray for God's best for the church family.
River of Life Mission - As the volume of meals and ministry opportunities have ramped up at the River of Life Mission, please keep all the staff and guests, as well as the neighboring community, in prayer.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem - As the Middle East heats up, pray for the nation of Israel along with all of those in this region who have come to the knowledge of Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour.
