Don't let fear block your sight of God
In 1 Samuel 20, the sermon traces the deep covenant friendship between David and Jonathan amid Saul’s growing jealousy and David’s flight for survival. The teaching reveals how God’s protection often works through human relationships—Jonathan, Michal, Samuel, and even the Spirit Himself—while reminding believers that such agencies always point back to the Lord as the true source of refuge. As Saul’s envy escalates into violence, David and Jonathan’s loyalty becomes a model of covenant faithfulness rooted in God’s purposes, not personal gain. Their final parting underscores how seasons of loss and separation draw God’s people into deeper dependence on Him. Through David’s “running years,” the sermon calls listeners to recognize that when every earthly support is stripped away, God remains the unshakable source of strength, comfort, and direction.
