What Are We Seeking?

Today we continue in our series, Who is King?, in 1 Samuel. In chapters 23-24, David and his men defeat the Philistines at Keilah. We see David faithfully inquiring of God, and as he is on the run from Saul, he is offered a chance to kill Saul, but instead cuts off the edge of his robe. David is convicted over his actions, and confesses to Saul. Saul is impressed at David’s humility and affirms God’s choice of him as the next king of Israel. Pastor Eric shares three points as we work through the text: 1) Seeking the Lord shapes selflessness. 2) Seeking the Lord helps God-honoring decision-making. 3) Seeking the Lord moves our hearts toward forgiveness.
