The conflict of David and Gloiath is based upon what is written about the Giants in Genesis 6. They are the offspring of fallen angels (Genesis 6 and the book of jude).
Further the story of David is about faith in our Father, which David had and relied upon.
Further the story of David is about the punishment proclaimed in Genesis 3
Genesis 3..
14 And the Lord God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:
15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

On a deeper level, it was a battle between the belief of the Israelites (in God), and the belief of the Philistines (in their idols), as David stated:
"You (Goliath) come against me with a sword, a spear, and a javelin; but I come against you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have ridiculed. Today the Lord will deliver you into my hand; and I will smite you, and cut off your head....that all the Earth may know that there is a God in Israel" (1 Samuel ch.17).
