    Doing What God Asks Us To Do!

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Jul 9, 2006

     | 4,208 views

    God gave Saul an instruction but Saul only half-carried it out. This short homily is a challenge to us: Let’s do all that God asks us to do; nothing more AND nothing less!

    In these days of terrorism this Bible event is hard for us to understand; and I know of one or two people who have rejected God because of it. The irony is of course that the story is primarily kept for us as a warning not to reject God’s instructions! Hundreds of years ago, stories such as this ...read more

    David did not have a fancy sword in this battle. He used what he had. He had his sling shot, and he choose five smooth stones. And that is the outline for the message: “Five Smooth Stones!” Why Five? Why Smooth? Why Stones?

    Primary Verse(1 Sam 17:40 KJV) And he took his staff in his hand, and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in a shepherd’s bag which he had, even in a scrip; and his sling was in his hand: and he drew near to the Philistine.
