Bold Faith in Uncertain Times

Wesley Hammer • June 11, 2025

1 Samuel 14:6


The nation of Israel was in crisis. The Philistines had gathered against them in overwhelming numbers. King Saul, gripped by fear, sat passively under a pomegranate tree (v.2), while the enemy occupied strategic ground. Weapons were scarce, morale was low, and the odds were humanly impossible.

In this setting, we find a glimmer of light in the bold faith of Jonathan, the son of Saul. His words in verse 6 echo throughout Scripture as a testimony of courageous faith: “It may be that the Lord will work for us...”

This message is for anyone who stands before an impossible situation, outnumbered, under-resourced, and overwhelmed.
