What do you do when you finally have the power to strike back and everyone around you says you should? David is given two clear opportunities to end his suffering by taking Saul’s life, yet he chooses restraint over revenge and worships God by waiting on His timing. This message reveals that true integrity is not proven in moments of ease, but in seasons of injustice and prolonged pressure. David leaves room for God’s justice and refuses to take into his own hands what God has promised to do. His posture points us to Jesus, who entrusted Himself to the Father, absorbed insult without retaliation, and opened the way for forgiveness and reconciliation at the cross. We are invited to pause and pray when wronged, bless those who oppose us, and trust that God is at work even when justice feels delayed.
