THE SEED
“And Samuel did that which the Lord spake and came to Bethlehem. And the Elders trembled at his coming, and said, comest thou peaceably?” 1 Samuel 16: 4(KJV)
At times in life, we find ourselves at crossroads and we are confused about what to do between man and God, but because we are children of God we need to follow the tenets and commandments of Him that can kill, resurrect and send to hell. The above text is about what transpired between King Saul( already rejected King by God for disobedience), the man of God Samuel and the king to be David, Samuel was instructed by God to visit Bethlehem to anoint David as the new king, but he was afraid because if King Saul should be aware of it he would kill him, this is a life-threatening issue but Samuel open up to God and God told Him what to do. Yes, he applied the wisdom of God and the mission was accomplished with ease. Brethren if you find yourself in that situation today, won’t you allow the fear of what men can do to overshadow your reasoning? Will you allow yourself to be led by God’s wisdom to accomplish the mission?
PRAYER
God, please help me to prioritise your fear in my heart rather than men’s so that it shall be well with me always. Amen
