Delivered From Destruction

1 Samuel 23:1-29

We have an “ostrich problem” in the sense that we often stick our heads in the sand to ignore a problem, or else try to solve something ourselves that only God can solve.  The story of David inquiring of the Lord and seeing him work powerfully to deliver him has great application for us.  We are reminded to repent and believe, submitting to Christ for our salvation which we could never earn on our own.  While we remain in the wilderness with residual sin that still clings to us, the kindness of God calls us into covenant community to encourage us to continue to walk in that grace.
