As we of the leadership team of Grace Message Church Ministries continue with the message which carries the title: The truth and nothing but the truth! We ask that each reader would turn their very own Bibles back unto the 17th chapter of the First Book of Samuel; in the 26th verse of that 17th chapter. In that verse we hear David’s confession concerning the way he see the enemy’s champion, in whom the army of the LORD God was come up against, and the army of Israel being totally afraid by the way they vision the same champion in which David saw. David said, not me, I’m not afraid; oh no, what’s really happening here; we cannot continue to allow this un-covenant Philistine giant to defy our God; for I, David am aware that other enemies are watching, and we are not speaking of the Philistines, we are speaking of all of the other enemies in that land and far away? This is when David unknowingly to himself, and unto Abner the commander of Saul’s army; that God had placed little ruddy king anointed lad David in the position of applying for general of Saul’s army temporarily. What most saints or Christians do not understand is this; though David was anointed king by the man of God named Samuel; it did not mean, go straight to the throne; it meant that he would began learning each position in his future ranks. To set as king over God’s people, you must know the work in which the people you’re leading are doing on behalf of the leadership God has placed you over; which means, that person’s hand has to have dipped in most offices, before taking the throne. The Bible puts it this way, our Lord and savior was tempted in all areas as we are, which makes Him a merciful high priest and savior. This now act of David facing Israel’s at the moment largest enemy; in the future it places David in the forefront of asking as a general, as is seen in the 16th verse of the 18th chapter of the First book of Samuel in these words: but all Israel and Judah loved David, because he went out and came in before them in battle. These one at a time elevations come about in a person’s life, in the way they handle the now trainings; for the now brings about hidden God given strength, and courage BKA steadfastness of the mind. For, faithful David debunked the disadvantaging words, in which evil king Saul tried to place in the soil of David’s ground’s; which made Saul feel as if David was definitely in lesser condition than himself being a grown man in physical age; and David appearing physically in a childlike state which needed his momma. Notwithstanding, Saul was about to get the shock of his life; for he was about to learn that David had long ago, put away childish thoughts, childish speech and childish behavior. For Saul knew that his God given Samuel’s anointing was rent from him in verses 27-28 of the 15th chapter of the First book of Samuel and Saul knowing these things; he still led Israel into battle, while being guided by the evil spirit sent to him by the LORD, as is spoken of in the 14th verse of the 16th chapter of the First book of Samuel. But Saul had no idea that, the same kingship anointing has just made His way back into his presence in the vessel of a little despised, thought to be cocky ruddy lad: Oh boy, this isn’t going to be good for Saul in the eyes of his people, nor is it going to be good for Abner, in the eyes of Saul; seeing that Abner is commander of the army of Israel. Saul still not knowing that David was clothed in the Holy Ghost and that David’s first part of his isolated wilderness with simulations were over, when Saul offered David the king’s armor, Selah!!! Here’s a powerful hidden nugget, if David would have went into battle with Saul’s armor; David would have been going into battle against the Philistine’s giant champion that was David’s simulation wilderness lion. But Saul’s armor, in which offered David, it was also part of David’s simulation isolation wilderness training, but it’s the bear part; and Saul unknowingly to him and even unto David, Saul’s evil armor covering would have openly slew David, after all of David’s wilderness training; seeing that David testified, he slew a lion and a bear. That bear covering in which king Saul was aligned with, if David wore it, David’s head would have been covered; and it’s not lawful for a man to enter into prayer or prophesying with his head covered; as is clearly stated in the 4th verse of the 11th chapter of the First book of Corinthians; and David prophesied running towards Goliath; as is pointed out in verses 45-47 of the 17th chapter of the First book of Samuel in these words: then said David to the Philistine, Thou Philistine champion, thou comest to me, Israel’s champion with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I, Israel’s champion, come to thee, Philistine champion in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied, blasphemed, and defamed. This day will the LORD deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I, Israel’s champion will give the carcases of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. And all this assembly shall know that the LORD saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle is the LORD'S, and he will give you into our hands. That’s when David acknowledged that he must go into battle with what he was trained in, in his isolation period, against the lion; and that’s without the bear’s help!!! Can you just imagine just for a moment, what David’s three older brethren were thinking, when hated David was in Saul’s tent before going into battle; but the three older brethren of David, they never step foot in Saul’s tent; but who those three hated, he did? You know that this was more coal added to their fire, and the coals were concerning the way they felt about David, their brethren. Nevertheless, they were not personally on David’s mind, for David saw the bigger picture; and the bigger picture was all of Israel and not just himself, nor just his father’s household; nor just his jealous brethren; sound like Yhowshua, didn’t it??? David headed even downward, BKA into the battle arena, BKA a valley, and the fight was to the death; regardless of age, height or if a person have rejected their God given experience BKA Knowledge; as the 6th verse of the 4th chapter of the book of Hosea pointed out. At which time, David’s three brethren, didn’t like David, but they were thinking even as Joseph’s brethren were thinking in verses 30-32 of the 37th chapter of the book of Genesis; what are we going to tell our father Jesse? We know that our father will be thinking, you’re the older brethren and were and are, your brother’s keeper; sound a little like Cain, didn’t it??? Nevertheless, all they could do is watch, while having mixed feelings; one feeling was, I hope that bastard die: the other feeling was, will this news of David’s death destroy our father; isn’t it strange how people count you out?? In other words, they thought within themselves as they glanced periodically at each other; do we cheer David on with everyone else, or do we secretly root for the enemy, which would mean us all going into servitude for life? With these mixed feelings coming from David’s three older brethren, seeing David once again got ahead of them even into battle, when they were in the army of Saul, and David was just a sheep keeper. Their thoughts were, we are supposed to be teaching David, we’re older than he is, and this is not fair to us!!!! What most immature saints and Christians do not understand; in a single person having favor with that special type of anointing, there’s no fairness about that person’s abilities and what would be forgiven that person by God; for the LORD God definitely keeps His eyes on the bigger picture, which is God’s purpose and God’s will, and David was a part of the bigger picture, and the three older brethren were not, though they were of the blessed nation of Israel, and even of the blessed personal household of Judah, through Jesse, Selah!!! Maybe we just should have named this epistle, Selah; because there is plenty in this food for thought for a person to pause and meditate upon!!! Israel in His battle, unknowingly to them and to Saul, even unto Jonathan; who would be David’s future best friend and brother in law; they all sent down their champion David, in whom they all doubted. We reiterate, David was sent down by Israel for the outcome of their fate; but it was them who gave up, even before the battle began. So be careful in the way you’re able to see a person in which you have deemed not sufficient for the God given, the God appointed task which has even your victory involved in that’s person’s victory; for David was looking at this moment like, peewee Samuel, which was quipped with not noticeable strength. Here is where we will pause for the moment, for enough has been said to make you go hmm!!! We will speak with you later, that’s if it’s the Lord’s will and purpose for our lives, sayonara!!!!
