1 Samuel 30:26-31

When we hear Him rightly we can trust God will do what He says.

  • Have we yet taken the time to ask for God’s guidance?
  • Who are we tempted to attack from our bitterness? Will we take this grief to God instead?
  • Are we hearing what God has said? Will we trust Him?

Abridgement of 2 Sam 1: [...] When David had returned from striking down the Amalekites, David remained two days in Ziklag. And on the third day, behold, a man came from Saul's camp, with his clothes torn and dirt on his head. And when he came to David, he fell to the ground and paid homage. [...] And he said to him, [...] “The people fled from the battle, and also many of the people have fallen and are dead, and Saul and his son Jonathan are also dead.”
