Bold Stands When The Stakes Are High | 1 Samuel 24:8
Let God write the ending of the story.
Welcome to the Daily Devo. I am Vince Miller.
Yesterday, David put his men in a risky situation by not cutting down Saul in the cave while he had the chance. But what is left to deal with is Saul and the 3000 soldiers waiting for him and his men inside this kill box. Let's see what happens next in 1 Samuel 24:8.
Afterward David also arose and went out of the cave, and called after Saul, 'My lord the king!' And when Saul looked behind him, David bowed with his face to the earth and paid homage. — 1 Samuel 24:8
This moment is intense—David steps out into the open, revealing his location to Saul and his army. A situation where any other man might choose a defensive posture or fight for survival, David chooses the high road of faith. He trusts the Lord with the outcome, even when his life hangs in the balance. This bold move didn't make David the hero of the story—God was the hero. David's faith was in God to deliver him, not in his own ability to manipulate the moment.
When we think about our own lives, there are times when we’re faced with situations that feel like we’re stepping into a dangerous “kill box” of sorts—risks that challenge our faith. It might be a career decision, standing up for what's right in your workplace, or even facing a personal conflict. The temptation to save yourself through manipulation or taking matters into your own hands can be strong. But just like David, we’re called to put our faith in the Lord, trusting that He will be the one to deliver us—even if the risks seem high.
Are you willing to trust God in the face of risk? This doesn't mean intentionally putting yourself in harm’s way to test your faith. Instead, it means that when you find yourself in those dangerous places—spiritually, relationally, or physically—you trust in God's sovereignty over the outcome. Remember, your job isn’t to be the hero. It’s to allow God to be the hero through your faith. Today, dare to trust God with the results, even when the stakes are high.
Boldly take the first step of faith and let God write the ending.
