Wherefore when Saul saw that he behaved himself very wisely, he was afraid of him. -1 Samuel 18:15. 


Good morning and happy Monday to you!  The phrase “behaved himself very wisely” should serve as a conviction for all of us. Many times, we are guilty of not behaving ourselves wisely.


In this story, Saul attempted to kill David on several occasions, but David remained silent. Instead, he accepted Saul’s offer of kingship wisely. How many times have you recognized that the intentions of someone you are close to, even those who may have been hostile to you, are not necessarily meant for your benefit?


That person could be your spiritual leader, your friend-nemesis, or even a family member. We are not judged by what others do, but by our own actions. Whether it’s retaliation or choosing to bless those who mistreat us, our reactions are scrutinized by the Lord.


David’s reaction of obedience was evident when Saul saw him. Saul was confused and his fear only grew.


When you walk in righteousness, evil fears you. Beloved, walk in what is right, regardless of how others treat and react towards you.

  Saying, Go ye into the village over against you; in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither. -Luke 19:30 Good morning and tremendous Tuesday to you! During Passion Week, we witnessed the fulfillment of prophecies regarding Christ, as demonstrated by how effortlessly the disciples found the animal needed for the events. This highlights Jesus's preeminence, as he orchestrated everything in accordance with prophecy.  When Jesus directed the disciples to an unburdened beast of burden, it symbolized that the weight of his mission would be uniquely His to bear.  The choice of such an animal harks back to Jesus's humble birth in Bethlehem, and the peaceful nature of a young colt signifies his initial arrival in peace. However, it also foreshadows his eventual return as a mighty warrior and conqueror. #prayforthepeaceofIsrael God bless you and command your day!!! Your comments and questions are welcome. Co...

  They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. -1 John 4:5 Good morning and happy hump day to you!  Ever wonder why Hollywood seems to have the ear of many? The scripture above addresses this in no uncertain terms.  Hollywood weighs in on much more than the big screen. In the same tenure there are other laymen who weigh in such as professional athletes and certainly talk show hosts.  These celebrities often engage in discussions about topics well beyond their expertise, without realizing their detachment from the average person's daily life. The question is who has your ear? How are your morals formed? Are you viewing the world through the right lens?  #prayforthepeaceofIsrael  God bless you and command your day!!!

  So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. -Romans 10:17  Good morning and happy hump day to you!    Why is it important to listen? Simply because faith comes to and through your ears. In similitude fear travels the same path.  What you hear you think about and over time your thinking effects your belief system. This is why it is important to listen to the right people.  This said beloved, guard those gates, chase down what may sneak in and put it under subjection to Christ.  #prayforthepeaceofIsrael   God bless you and command your day!!!
