Shammah, son of Agee the Hararite, one of King David’s "mighty men" mentioned in 2 Samuel 23:11-12. The speaker highlights Shammah’s extraordinary courage during a Philistine attack on a field full of lentils.

While the other Israelites fled in fear, Shammah took a solitary stand in the middle of the field to defend the crop, which the speaker interprets as a symbol of God’s provision and blessing. By standing his ground and defeating the Philistines, Shammah facilitated a "great victory" brought about by the Lord.

The speaker draws a modern parallel, urging the audience to recognize the "precious gifts" God has given them—such as salvation, family, and their calling—and to defend them against spiritual "Philistines" who seek to snatch them away. The sermon concludes with a call to action: to stop fleeing in the face of worldly pressures and instead take a bold, daily stand for the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
