People Of Promise

The people of promise

1Sa 30:9 So David went, he and the six hundred men that were with him, and came to the brook Besor, where those that were left behind stayed.

1Sa 30:10 But David pursued, he and four hundred men: for two hundred abode behind, which were so faint that they could not go over the brook Besor.

1Sa 30:22 Then answered all the wicked men and men of Belial, of those that went with David, and said, Because they went not with us, we will not give them aught of the spoil that we have recovered, save to every man his wife and his children, that they may lead them away, and depart.

1Sa 30:23 Then said David, Ye shall not do so, my brethren, with that which the LORD hath given us, who hath preserved us, and delivered the company that came against us into our hand.

1Sa 30:24 For who will hearken unto you in this matter? but as his part is that goeth down to the battle, so shall his part be that tarrieth by the stuff: they shall part alike.

1Sa 30:25 And it was so from that day forward, that he made it a statute and an ordinance for Israel unto this day

Saul is troubled for the king of achish is making war with him, he cannot get ahold of god so he summons the with of endor.

His enemies are arrayed against him he turns to a with

Peril surrounds him he is couched in chaos and curse his spirit is sore troubled

He has no preacher Samuel the prophet arises from death to tell saul he and his sons will meet the prophet tomorrow in the grave

David the son of jesse that warrior and man of god who the song was written saul hath slain his thous but david has slain his tens of thouse

David is a son of promise and a possessor of gods anointing

The philllistines now have arrayed their selves to attack the land of promise and david is arising to meet the challengers of his promise

You see the enemy will always try to attack our promise

The ephod is with david this garment that the high priest would put on to do worship to Jehovah is with david in the temple with the sword of goliath

You can see a slipping of those with calloused spirits those that are taken up more with their own agendas and their own petty lives for they don’t have the ephod of worship

Yes the script says david stood head and shoulders above all men

He looked good he looked the part of the mighty king

But the worshipper always ends up with the blessing

The apostle said I am not ashamed of the gospel of jesus Christ for it is the power of god unto salvation

I am not ahsmed to dance shout speak intongues

King of gath has invited david to fight for the philistines

But even this kings servants knew that davidwould not stand for the philistine hurting even saul who hated david

There is something to be set about the hosehold of faith

You are my brother and my sister

So david and his men doing the will of god came to find that the amelikites had taken all the mens families captive and buned ziklag with fire

David called for the ephod , the warrior was also a prophet and he took this garment on and worshipped and called on thename of the lord and god heard him and instructed him to pursue and recover all

Sometime you got to stir up the gift that god ahs given you

He could have been pitiful but instead he was full of praise

O don’t you know it absolutely messes with the enemy when we have lost it all but still dig down deep and get ahold of some praise

Put on the garment of praise

Isa 61:3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; [ weakness darkness] that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.

He came out of the battlefield and came home and his family was gone and messed up, it was nt time to blame god and become bitter it was time to put on the garment of praise

When we put on the garnment of praise it will usher us into his courts and where the spirit of the lord is there is liberty

The spirit of prophecy fell on david and god said pursue and you will recover all

This cataclysmic episode in davids life was a common characteristic
