While David’s life is in danger by the hands of Saul, David’s greatest support comes from an unlikely ally: Jonathan, son of Saul, the heir to the throne. While David is called to wield power for God’s kingdom, Jonathan is given the more difficult call to yield his right to the throne. Like Jonathan, we are at times called by God to yield our own “kingdoms” for the sake of His own. We will see that we can yield our kingdoms in the same manner when we, like Jonathan, submit our lives to the greatness and goodness of God’s kingship.
