I Samuel 29
I. God’s Presence is Almost Silent (verses 6 & 9)
II. God’s Ways are Often Surprising (verses 1-11)
III. God’s Grace is Always Stubborn (verses 7-11)
“Then there is some glad news for all Yahweh’s servants in this fainting fit of His chosen king. God does not cast you off in your foolishness. Our bungling does not evaporate his mercy. It is yet full and warm – and stubborn, so stubborn it insisted on pursing David to Philistia… David’s jam and Yahweh’s deliverance shows that David’s success is due not to David’s savvy but only to Yahweh’s mercy.” Dale Ralph Davis
