(Some suggestions on How to do this from a disaster that occurred in David’s life,
on His Way to Kingship)
1 Samuel 30:1-7 (read the whole chapter) Ephesians 3:20-21 especially verse 6
Verse 6 tells the reader that the situation couldn’t get much worse and David was
“greatly distressed.” Not only did he lose his whole camp, supplies, people and two
wives, but now all his men were so “bitter” that they wanted to stone him.” How low can
you go!? Added to the above, Saul’s pursuit to end his life! “Yet” or “But” David(still)
found strength in the Lord. This statement does not only mean psychologically,
internally through some sort of positive thinking etc. He found strength in a Living God:
Real power and energy which resembles the promise made to us in Acts 1:8. The
seriousness of their distress is illustrated in verse 4, “David and his men wept aloud until they had no strength left to weep.” Still David inquired of his living, breathing personal God who is able. He just needs the opportunity to demonstrate this and for David his distressing situation provided that opportunity to discover what Ephesians 3:20-21 states, “He is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think.”
