The document discusses biblical figures who operated in the spirit of might, including Samson, David, and Jesus. It provides several examples from the Old and New Testaments of these figures' mighty acts performed through the spirit of God working through them: Samson tore a lion with his hands and killed 1000 men with a donkey's jawbone. David killed a lion and bear with his hands as a shepherd and defeated Goliath. Jesus performed many miracles that confounded his enemies and had power over nature, demons, disease, and death. The document emphasizes that true might and power comes from God's spirit, not physical strength.

3. THE BIBLE SPEAKS OF SOME MEN THAT
WERE OPERATING IN THE SPIRIT OF
MIGHT, THEY ARE CALLED MIGHTY MEN,
OR MEN OF VALOR.
Let’s have a quick look on this subject.

4. SAMSON, A
JUDGE OF ISRAEL

5. JUDGES 14:5-6 (NKJV)
• 5 So Samson went down to Timnah with his father and mother,
and came to the vineyards of Timnah.
• Now to his surprise, a young lion came roaring against
him. 6 And the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and he
tore the lion apart as one would have torn apart a young goat,
though he had nothing in his hand. But he did not tell his father
or his mother what he had done.

6. WITH A JAWBONE OF AN
ASS AS A WEAPON

7. JUDGES 15:14-16 (NKJV)
• 14 When he came to Lehi, the Philistines came shouting against
him. Then the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him; and
the ropes that were on his arms became like flax that is burned
with fire, and his bonds [a]broke loose from his hands. 15 He
found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, reached out his hand and
took it, and killed a thousand men with it. 16 Then Samson said:
• “With the jawbone of a donkey,
Heaps upon heaps,
With the jawbone of a donkey
I have slain a thousand men!”

8. HE CARRIEDTHE DOORS OF
GAZAUPONHIS
SHOULDERS

9. JUDGES 16:3 (CEV)
• 3 But Samson got up in the middle of the night and went to the
town gate. He pulled the gate doors and doorposts out of the
wall and put them on his shoulders. Then he carried them all the
way to the top of the hill that overlooks Hebron,[a] where he set
the doors down, still closed and locked.

10. SAMSONPULLSDOWN
DAGON'S TEMPLE KILLING
MANY PHILISTINES.

11. JUDGES 16:28 (NKJV)
• 28 Then Samson called to the LORD, saying, “O
Lord GOD, remember me, I pray! Strengthen me, I pray,
just this once, O God, that I may with one blow take
vengeance on the Philistines for my two eyes!”

12. DAVID,
KING OF ISRAEL

13. AS A SHEPHERD, DAVID
KILLED A LION AND A
BEAR WITH HIS HANDS

14. 1 SAMUEL 17:34-36 (NKJV)
• 34 But David said to Saul, “Your servant used to keep his father’s
sheep, and when a lion or a bear came and took a lamb out of
the flock, 35 I went out after it and struck it, and delivered the
lamb from its mouth; and when it arose against me, I
caught it by its beard, and struck and killed it. 36 Your servant has
killed both lion and bear; and this uncircumcised Philistine will be
like one of them, seeing he has defied the armies of the living
God.”

15. THE STONE SANK INTO THE
FOREHEAD OF GOLIATH

16. 1 SAMUEL 17:45-47 (NKJV)
• 45 Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a
sword, with a spear, and with a javelin. But I come to you in the
name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom
you have defied. 46 This day the LORD will deliver you into my
hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you. And this
day I will give the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines to the
birds of the air and the wild beasts of the earth, that all the earth
may know that there is a God in Israel. 47 Then all this assembly
shall know that the LORD does not save with sword and spear;
for the battle is the LORD’s, and He will give you into our hands.”

17. SO THAT THE STONE SANK INTO HIS
FOREHEAD,
• Here we pause for a prophetic activation.
• Remember that David was not only King
but also a Prophet.
• So, what do you think the stone is
representing in the defeat of this Philistine
giant?
• He was guided by the Lord to send a
powerful message that strongly resounds
even to these days and will continue for
ever and ever.

18. MIGHT IS GREATER
THAN STRENGTH
Might cause us to be bold.
Not in terms of volume or size.
Might to overcome strength.
Might to overcome the strong.
This might is an overpowering
force.
It is
Might is an extraordinary power
Might is a supernatural strength
Isaiah 9:6 (NKJV)
6 For unto us a Child is born,
Unto us a Son is given;
And the government will be
upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called
Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty
God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of
Peace.
