DAY 37 OF 42

David Flees to the Philistines

Questions to consider:

  1. What does this passage teach you about God?
  2. What does this teach you about humanity and the world?
  3. At the start of this chapter, you see David running to the Philistines. On top of that, God was not mentioned in this chapter at all. David was fearful and took matters into his own hands by running to Israel’s enemy for protection. Why do you think David left God out of this decision? 
  4. Why are we tempted to try and take control in moments of stress and fear? What truth about God confronts that tendency in us?

Let’s Pray:

Father God, help me not to make decisions based on fear, but to run to you for protection. May I always trust in you for guidance in my life.

About this Plan

1 Samuel

Picture this: a nation chosen by God; a prophet from an unlikely background to help show God’s ways to His people; a king whose fear and unfaithfulness bring disaster; and a man after God’s own heart who changed the nation of Israel forever. This is a story of God’s reign and rule, Israel’s choices and consequences, and two men’s different responses to God.
