David reminds us of what the Lord has done for him and what that means for the future of the kingdom of Israel.

There is a famine in the land – not an ordinary famine, but one of three years. David inquires of the Lord why this occurs and is told that it is a covenant curse because of Saul’s breaking Israel’s covenant with the Gibeonites

One of the most deceptive aspects of sin is that it tricks us into thinking it is original. We may believe that the Word of God does not direct our actions, or that we have found a loophole in God’s Law, or that our situation is unique.
