It is the strength of mind or spirit that enables a person to encounter danger with firmness and resolve. In the context of the Bible, valour is frequently associated with faithfulness to God and the willingness to act righteously, even in the face of adversity.<br><br><b>Old Testament References</b><br><br>The concept of valour is prominently featured in the Old Testament, particularly in the accounts of Israel's military leaders and warriors. One of the most notable figures is Gideon, who is described as a "mighty man of valour" (<a href="/judges/6-12.htm">Judges 6:12</a>). Despite his initial hesitance and feelings of inadequacy, Gideon is chosen by God to deliver Israel from the Midianites. His account exemplifies how divine empowerment can transform an ordinary individual into a courageous leader.<br><br>Another significant example is King David, who, even as a young shepherd, displayed remarkable valour. His confrontation with Goliath is a quintessential demonstration of faith-fueled bravery. David's declaration, "The LORD who delivered me from the paw of the lion and the paw of the bear will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine" (<a href="/1_samuel/17-37.htm">1 Samuel 17:37</a>), underscores the belief that true valour is rooted in trust in God's deliverance.<br><br>The mighty men of David, known as the "Gibborim," are also celebrated for their acts of valour. These warriors performed extraordinary feats, as recorded in <a href="/bsb/2_samuel/23.htm">2 Samuel 23</a> and <a href="/bsb/1_chronicles/11.htm">1 Chronicles 11</a>, and their loyalty to David and to God is a testament to their courage and dedication.<br><br><b>New Testament Insights</b><br><br>While the New Testament does not focus on physical warfare, the concept of valour is evident in the spiritual realm. The Apostle Paul frequently uses military metaphors to describe the Christian life, urging believers to "put on the full armor of God" (<a href="/ephesians/6-11.htm">Ephesians 6:11</a>) and to "fight the good fight of faith" (<a href="/1_timothy/6-12.htm">1 Timothy 6:12</a>). This spiritual valour involves standing firm against the forces of evil and remaining steadfast in the truth of the Gospel.<br><br>The early Christians, including the apostles, exhibited valour through their unwavering commitment to spreading the message of Christ, often in the face of persecution and martyrdom. The Book of Acts recounts numerous instances where the apostles, filled with the Holy Spirit, boldly proclaimed the Gospel despite threats and opposition (<a href="/acts/4-13.htm">Acts 4:13</a>).<br><br><b>Valour in Proverbs and Wisdom Literature</b><br><br>The wisdom literature of the Bible also speaks to the virtue of valour, particularly in the context of moral and ethical courage. <a href="/proverbs/31-10.htm">Proverbs 31:10-31</a> describes the "wife of noble character," whose valour is demonstrated through her industriousness, wisdom, and fear of the Lord. This passage highlights that valour is not limited to physical bravery but encompasses integrity, diligence, and spiritual strength.<br><br><b>Conclusion</b><br><br>In summary, valour in the biblical sense is a multifaceted virtue that encompasses physical courage, spiritual fortitude, and moral integrity. It is a quality that is both divinely inspired and cultivated through faith and obedience to God. Throughout the Scriptures, valour is portrayed as an essential attribute of those who seek to live righteously and fulfill God's purposes in their lives.<a name="heb" id="heb"></a><div class="vheading2">Strong's Hebrew</div><a href="/hebrew/2428.htm"><span class="l">2428. chayil -- strength, efficiency, wealth, army</span></a><br><b>...</b> band of men (soldiers), company, (great) forces, goods, host, might, power, riches,<br> strength, strong, substance, train, (+)valiant(-ly), <b>valour</b>, virtuous(-ly <b>...</b> <br><font color="#ff6600" size="-1">/hebrew/2428.htm</font><font color="#ff6600" size="-1"> - 6k</font><a name="lib" id="lib"></a><div class="vheading2">Library</div><p><a href="/library/unknown/the_clementine_homilies/chapter_v_discretion_the_better_part.htm"><span class="l">Discretion the Better Part of <b>Valour</b>.</span></a> <br><b>...</b> Homily IV.
