When David faced Saul's pursuit for the first time, he forgot that his future was in God's hands, but looked for a way out according to man's plan. First he cheated Ahimelech, the priest, and then fled to Gath, the hometown of Goliath with the knife of the giant, thinking that it would be safe to hide in the enemy's place. Unexpectedly, although he escaped from the tiger's mouth, he entered the wolf's den, and Agi, king of Gath, could kill him at any time. In desperation, David had to ignore shame, pretend to be crazy and sell stupidity, and narrowly escaped.
David left Gath of the Philistines and returned to Saul's sphere of influence. The environment is still dangerous and difficult, but his spirit is relaxed and happy. David went from one failure to another by his own strategy, but in despair, he no longer relied on himself, but bowed down before God and became a humble man.
This made him learn not to rely on himself, but to look to God, because if King Gath was determined to kill him and avenge Goliath, it would be useless for him to pretend to be crazy again, so he praised him from the heart: My heart will boast in the Lord! All David's experiences have always proved to him that no matter how desperate people are, they are still in God's hands. Therefore, we should be grateful for everything.
Just like the natural law that God put in the universe, evil will be rewarded, which is the spiritual law that God put in people's hearts. Those who violate the laws of nature are bound to be punished by nature; Violating spiritual laws is bound to be rewarded by God.
Everyone has done a lot of evil in his life, which has made our life a mess. But God has mercy on us and is willing to point out a way out for people who were created in his image. Please take refuge in him and accept the redemption of the precious blood of God's son, so that we will not be condemned before God, and we will return to the time when God first created man.
