Christ wants His disciples to rest on His almighty arms! It is then that they will value Him more than life, and hate sin with a passion.

How should the believer engage those affected by evil acts of violence? How should the believer personally react?

To flee Saul’s madness and violence, David goes into hiding. The bright light in David’s dark times is his ever-present God!

Paul sets a practical pattern of discipleship for Timothy and for all believers: Celebrate grace, Imitate Christ, and Duplicate others.

Only Jesus Christ can give you eternal satisfaction and hope.

I Samuel 19 gives the details of the royal contract on David. Psalm 59, written during this trial, gives the response of a hurting heart.

Selfish pride has an agenda. Saul saw David not as God’s man but as his rival. He’s gunning for David as public enemy #1.

In Psalm 11, David’s counselors gave him bad advice about how he should respond to his enemies. David responded well by emphasizing what he knew to be true about his God, which is critical for believers to do today.

David had done nothing but serve his king loyally and bravely. His greatest threat came from within the kingdom.
