Love God Greatly: Davidنموونە

SOAP: 1 Samuel 17:14-15 David learned to trust in God as He tended sheep. Because God had faithfully delivered him from evil in the fields, David never doubted that God would help him defeat the giant on the battlefield. David understood that the power to defeat the enemy came from God, not his own cunning. His job was to humbly obey God and stay faithful to the task. Whether he was tending sheep, running errands for his father, or facing a giant, David’s desire was to please God, not to gain acclaim. Right now, you may feel insignificant in the world’s eyes, but God sees your willing heart. Ordinary acts of obedience like David’s can make an extraordinary difference. As we choose to trust God and obey in small ways, God is pleased with our sacrifice and often multiplies our impact. Lord, help us to shepherd well whether we are in a small field or large one. May our heart’s desire be to please You alone. Amen.
