28 Mar When we hit the rock-bottom!
Tired of being chased for years and running from King Saul there was no indication that things would change, so David began to despair.
🎯Though God had promised to prosper him, his trust faltered. Sometimes, that is how we feel.
🎯We know that God has promised good things for those who wait on Him and that every promise of His is “yes” in Christ but our faith, like David’s, wavers.
🎯Israel’s future king assessed his options and chose the “best” one—to form an alliance with the godless Philistines.
🎯By moving from faith to human reasoning, David stepped out of the Lord’s will and joined with the enemies of God’s people.
🎯And in doing so, he compromised the very thing to which he had committed himself—being Israel’s leader.
🎯Fortunately, when you hit bottom as David did, there is a way back. Focusing on the Lord can lead you out of discouragement and into His presence.
💥Confess your lack of faith, receive God’s forgiveness, and pledge to follow Him.
đź’ĄNext, strengthen yourself in the Lord: Recall His past faithfulness, reflect upon His power, and remember His promises.
đź’ĄFinally, resolve to trust God for the future, and ask His Holy Spirit for help.
