OYESS PENSA

Where is your first point of call when you face a challenge, difficulty, opposition or conflict in your life? Do you run to the throne of God or you run to your phone? David had learnt the valuable lesson of always enquiring of the Lord before making any decisions. Anytime he was under attack, he went in prayer to the Lord. By so doing, the attacks drew him closer to God. Our friends and family can only help us as much as their strength and resources can go but God, who is Almighty and all knowing is able to make every situation end in our good. *Shalom!!!*

TEXT; 1SAMUEL 22:6-16

From vs.6-8, 13, can you point out Saul's fear and what he did? Saul sought information about David and Jonathan; he felt insecured and thought there had been a conspiracy against him. Saul tactically created sentiments in vs.7-8. He brought in tribalism so that the men of Benjamin could support his evil intention. Do we see people doing same today for their own selfish interest?

Compare vs.9-10 with vs.14-15. What report did Doeg give to Saul about Ahimelech and what was the true picture as reported by Ahimelech? Doeg wanted to gain favour from the King and distorted the story thereby endangering the life of the Priest and others. We must be careful how we report issues.

Q.3 Is there any bad example for me to avoid or warning for me to heed?
