    How a person anointed for a position works for someone who is no longer serving God.

    Working for the King 1 Sam. 16:14-23 Last week we started our study in the life of David by looking at the characteristics that made him a man after God’s own heart. We said that David had spirituality, humility and integrity, and then we applied those same characteristics to our own ...read more

    David in Saul's service in 1 Samuel 16:14-23 shows us how the Lord prepared David for his future service.

    Scripture Last week we begin a sermon series on “The Life of David.” David’s story begins in 1 Samuel 16, where we read that God sent Samuel to anoint David as the next king of Israel (16:1-13). When Samuel anointed David as the next king over Israel, David was just a young boy, perhaps as young ...read more

    “The eyes of the Lord go to and fro to strengthen those whose hearts are committed to Him …” 2 Chron. 16:9 When God is looking for someone to lift up, will He find you where He thought you would be?

    David was found where expected (tending sheep): When Prophet Samuel was looking for someone to anoint as king over Israel, David was found expectedly tending his father’s sheep (1 Sam 16:11-13); He did not stray away from the field doing something else. When the nation was looking for someone to ...read more

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jul 4, 2025
     | 370 views

    David’s anointing in 1 Samuel 16 teaches us that God’s standards are not the same as man’s. He chooses the humble, the hidden, the faithful, and the pure in heart.

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 1 Samuel 16:1-23 Supporting Texts: Psalm 75:6-7, Jeremiah 17:10, Proverbs 4:23, Matthew 23:27-28, 2 Corinthians 10:18 INTRODUCTION: When God rejects one man, He begins preparing another.

    The Construction Of A King's Character (1 Samuel 16:14-23)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 7, 2024
     | 798 views

    God used solitude, secrecy, sameness, and struggle to shape the character and faith of David for his future role as king of Israel. God can use tools like these to shape anyone who surrenders their life to Him.

    David had just been anointed as the next king of Israel by the prophet Samuel (1 Samuel 16:1-13), much to the amazement of his father and brothers. He had been in the fields of Judea tending the family flocks, seemingly consigned like the majority of the populace to live a life of productive ...read more
