From Mountaintops to Caves (Part 4) – David Recovers All: Spiritual Help in Crisis


Listen Later

Pastor Tim Travis uses the biblical account of David at Ziklag (1 Samuel 30) to instruct believers on handling life’s difficulties. Pastor Travis examines the danger of focusing on The Wrong Enemy, which Travis identifies as the “World, the Flesh, and the devil,” who distract Christians from their true focus, which should be the Lord his God. When facing loss or disappointment—the anguish over the loss of expectation—people often resort to an “understandable reaction” of despair or, like David’s men, start the blame game and point the finger at their leaders or other believers. The antidote to this distress is encouragement, which David found by seeking spiritual help through the priest and the ephod to inquire of the Lord, thereby taking the action to inquire and trusting God’s promise to “recover all.” Ultimately, Pastor Travis encourages believers to use the Bible as their Plumb line and to ensure their validation is not found in man but in pleasing Christ, resting in the assurance that one day all will be explained by God.
