1 Samuel 17:51 · World English Bible
Then David ran, stood over the Philistine, took his sword, drew it out of its sheath, killed him, and cut off his head with it. When the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled.
David is the creative power planted in every person, the anointed son who conquers death from within. The giant he stands upon is the whole weight of the outer world insisting that facts are fixed and cannot be moved.

MANIFESTATION
David is the creative power planted in every person, the anointed son who conquers death from within. The giant he stands upon is the whole weight of the outer world insisting that facts are fixed and cannot be moved. When David takes the giant's own sword and cuts off his head, the power of appearances is beaten with the very force it relied on. The mind that was ruled by what the senses report is severed from its command.
The fleeing army is every lesser doubt that scatters once its champion is gone. The battle is never a distant field. It is the moment a person's own imagination overturns the belief that things are settled against him. When that power returns victorious, death is finished, and the man knows he is the father of the son who won.

What would change today if I stopped treating the facts as the final word?
What binds you and what frees you are made of the same material: your own mind. The chain turns out to be the key once you see whose hand is holding it.
To master others takes force. To master yourself takes real strength, and only that strength actually changes anything.
The world you meet is the world your mind is projecting. See that clearly and the solid wall loses the authority you had given it.
