Pastor Gerrit Hoeks continues our study through 1 Samuel with chapters 18 and 19. In this message, we see the contrast between King Saul and David. Saul becomes the “rotten king,” consumed by jealousy, pride, and fear of losing his throne. David is the humble servant who trusts God, serves faithfully, and is protected by the Lord even when Saul seeks his life. This teaching highlights how envy leads to destruction, how humility leads to blessing, and how God’s presence gives courage and victory.
