Prophet, Priest, & Judge | David on the Run, Part 1, 1 Sam 21:1-9 | Week 30

In 1 Samuel 21, David is desperate and on the run, and instead of seeking the Lord, he relies on his own plan. God still provides food and a weapon, not because David planned well, but because God is merciful. This passage challenges us to examine how often we try to save ourselves, and how easily we can treat holy things as tools instead of gifts meant to draw us to worship. God provides, even in our weakness, but He calls us to repentance, reverence, and deeper trust in Him. “So the priest gave him the holy bread…” – 1 Samuel 21:6

Prophet, Priest, & Judge | Jonathan Protects David, 1 Sam 20 | Week 29

This passage shows a powerful contrast between loyalty to people and loyalty to God. Jonathan had every reason to protect his family’s throne, but instead, he chose God’s plan, even when it cost him. This message reminds us that God’s Kingdom is built on covenant, not convenience. Sometimes following God means letting go of status, approval, or comfort so His purposes can move forward. The question for all of us is simple: When obedience to God costs something, will we still choose Him? Scripture: 1 Samuel 20

Prophet, Priest, & Judge | God's Protection, 1 Sam 19:18-24 | Week 28

In this passage, Saul repeatedly tries, and fails, to destroy David. Each time, God uses community, Jonathan, Michal, and Samuel, to protect what He has called and anointed. This message reminds us that God often preserves our faith and calling through His people. We are not meant to fight spiritual battles alone. When we pray for one another, know the Word, and act in love, we become instruments of God’s protection. If God is for us, who can be against us? “The Lord is with you…” – 1 Samuel 19

Forgiveness isn’t optional in the life of a believer; it’s essential. Not just for personal peace, but for the health and witness of the community God is building. This message will challenge us to walk in the kind of forgiveness that doesn’t retreat from conflict, but leans in with grace, humility, and a commitment to stay connected. A forgiven person must be a forgiving person, because real community can’t survive without it. “Forgive as the Lord forgave you.” – Colossians 3:13
