In this verse, David is telling King Saul not to be afraid of the giant Goliath, and that he, David, will go and fight him. David is showing great faith and trust in God, just like we are called to do in Romans 8:28. David's confidence comes from knowing that God is with him, and that gives him the courage to stand up against a giant.
