This is more about metaphoric giants, problems that we can get victory, David was offered armour to fight the 10 foot giant Goliath, he was a mere boy. He had already killed a bear and a lion. How? He knew His God was bigger than any giant he could face, or wild animal, which was the case with this encounter, was David a better than you or I? No way, he had many frailties, but he had faith.
1 Samuel 17:4-7
A champion named Goliath, who was from Gath, came out of the Philistine camp. His height was six cubits and a span.[a] 5 He had a bronze helmet on his head and wore a coat of scale armor of bronze weighing five thousand shekels ; 6 on his legs he wore bronze greaves, and a bronze javelin was slung on his back. 7 His spear shaft was like a weavers rod, and its iron point weighed six hundred shekels. His shield bearer went ahead of him.
1 Samuel 17:49:50
As the Philistine moved closer to attack him, David ran quickly toward the battle line to meet him. Reaching into his bag and taking out a stone, he slung it and struck the Philistine on the forehead. The stone sank into his forehead, and he fell facedown on the ground.
50 So David triumphed over the Philistine with a sling and a stone; without a sword in his hand he struck down the Philistine and killed him.
