The Flea Flees

www.truthforlife.org || By: Alistair Begg - (1 Samuel 27-28:2) After sparing Saul’s life a second time, David allowed fear to overturn his confidence in God’s protection. Rather than seeking refuge in the Lord, he escaped into enemy territory and out of Saul’s reach. His success was short-lived, however, as his lies to Achish, king of Gath, soon led to trouble. As Alistair Begg notes, David’s duplicitous activity reminds us that all men are fallible. We must keep our gaze fixed on Jesus, the one true King, in whom there is no deceit.

Interesting story of David’s ego. It’s important that we don’t make hero’s seem perfect, as none of us are perfect; only God. Thank you, Pastor Begg.🧡🙏

Do NOT lean on your own understanding

Wow. Puts King David in clear perception.

Man I did not realize 1 Samuel 27 is a foreshadowing of the murder or Uriah

It is easy to see from the outworking of this episode in in the life of David that he still had a lot of growing up to do ,some of the psalms the Alastair quotes at the start in all probability had not been written yet he had a lot to learn yet i e he had to grow up and put his sins behind under the blood

I don’t understand why he says he fights the amalekites - I thought Saul killed them all and Samuel killed Agag ?
