Be a David, Not a Saul

In the Books of Samuel, king Saul is an example of one who always doubts God. His name in Hebrew means “to ask or to question”, so he is always asking “why must it be like this. Why can’t I do it my way?”

Saul acts based on his emotions and is very impulsive, disregarding prophet Samuel’s instructions that come from God.

On the other hand, David means “beloved”. King David is juxtaposed with Saul, showing the difference between a doubter and a believer.

The one who knows that God loves him will trust the Lord’s promptings. Such a person will easily be led by the Holy Spirit and experience good success.

God called David “a man after My own heart”, so David was someone willing to be led by God.

Many times when we act like Saul, we end up with a failure streak, and wonder why bad things keep happening.

If you keep doing things from a place of assumptions, fear, and worry, you will end up ashamed and disappointed.

What we need is to really seek the Lord and see what He is saying to us through the Holy Spirit.

He may speak to you inwardly, through a friend, a sermon, dreams, visions, confirming signs, etc.

If you are like David, believing that God loves you and only wants the best for you, then trust Him to lead you.

Ask the Holy Spirit to position you in the right place at the right time, to receive the best results in whatever situation you are praying about.

That is why God’s wisdom is invaluable—more precious than rubies, gold, silver!

Learn how to flow with God’s system of times and seasons by which He plans every purpose under Heaven. You will experience unceasing fruitfulness and restful increase when you apply the revelations in “God’s Appointed Time”:

Hi Dear Page Viewers/Likers, This page is not an official New Creation Church (NCC) or Pastor Joseph Prince page. These sermon notes are not affiliated with NCC or Pastor Prince. These sermon notes are compiled by me, and I'm just a loyal and regular attendee of the church's Sunday services, and I feel led to take detailed personal sermon notes of Pastor Prince's anointed messages to share them with the world, which desperately needs the true word of God and the original gospel of grace. I feel blessed to be able to attend Pastor Joseph Prince's services in person, and would like to help everyone who isn't able to attend in person, to get hold of the messages as soon as it is preached! Help to ensure that I have the time freedom to continue to post even more high-quality sermon notes MORE FREQUENTLY, and get to download ALL my sermon notes in e-Book format HERE ===> https://www.patreon.com/Miltongohblog God Bless You, Milton Goh
By God’s Grace, this page extends the reach of Pastor Joseph Prince sermon notes and fresh-written daily devotionals about Jesus and His finished work at the cross. The goal is to shine as the light of the world every day, sowing seeds for salvation.
