God And David Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Aug 7, 2018

God did not look on the appearance, on the height of the stature of a person, on the beauty, on the mighty. He never choose like how we choose. Samuel said to Jesse “God did not choose anyone of these”(1Sam.16:10). Then who?

David Volunteered
