25LHDVD08-03 Deborah Greenhill - Situations and People You Cannot Fix

The entire Bible is our counsel - both Old and New Testaments. The launchpad for this message is 1 Sam 27:1-7 where “David said in his heart, I shall now perish one day by the hand of Saul …” God did not tell him to flee to the land of the Philistines, he devised that plan because his situation was so desperate he was willing to resolve it whether God was in it or not. David had slew Goliath of Gath a number of years before, but now on his own volition he is going into enemy territory. The story evolves with David and his men performing a wicked massacre to substantiate a lie. His willful decision brought him to such despair he finally sought counsel with God as to how to gain victory over the problem. In Chapter 30 we see the consequences of David’s willfulness which reminds us how complicated and devastating the path can be in our lives when we are not following the leading of the Holy Spirit. And then there is the ephod. How does David get special permission to wear it? He is not a Levite. But God honored it and gave him divine direction. Interesting outcome from events going on at the same time - Saul consulting the witch of Endor and David seeking the mind of God. Follow along as she then navigates into 2 Samuel 16. Pray God gives you the grace to get through your intolerable situation and not run to the enemy’s camp.
