Love God Greatly: DavidНамуна

SOAP: 1 Samuel 21:12-13 David feared for his life and left everything behind to flee from King Saul. He wanted to hide, but God’s chosen ones are always conspicuous in this world. His life had turned upside-down, and rather than resting in faith, he reacted in the flesh and tried to escape a difficult situation by play acting. Have you ever tried to manipulate a situation by presenting a false front? Have you ever run in fear, rather than standing strong in faith? Like David, we are human, and we often react out of anxious desperation, rather than rehearsing God’s promises and remembering that He is our Defender. Today, let’s purpose to choose wisely and rest in God’s care. He’s always standing in our corner. Lord, thank You for being our Refuge and Strength during difficult times. Help us to latch on to Your promises today, rather than letting our thoughts linger on doubt and fear. In our heart of hearts, we believe that nothing is impossible for You, so help us to face each moment with courage and faith. Amen.
