there. Right. Amen. So how Louia praised the Lord. Let's go,

but go first Samuel chapter eight. Here we go. And it came

to pass when Samuel was old, that he made his son's judges over Israel.

Now the name of his first born was Joel, in the name of

his second Abla. They were judges in Bersheba, and his sons walked not

in his ways, but turned aside after lucrei lasree and took bribes and perverted

judgment. Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together and came to Samuel

to remand Raymond said to him, behold out our old and thy sons walk

not in thy ways. Now make us a king to judge us like all

the nations. But the thing displeased Samuel when they said, give us a

king to judge. And Samuel prated to the Lord, and the Lord said,

unto Samuel, hearken unto the voice of the people, and all that

they said to thee For they have not rejected thee but they have rejected me,

that I should not reign over them of court. To all the works

which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt,

even until this day, wherewith they have forsaken me and served other gods,

so do they also to thee. Now. Therefore hearkened to their voice,

howbeit yet protests somnia to them, and show them the manner of the

king that shall reign over them. And Samuel told all the words of the

Lord to the people that asked of him a king, And he said,

this will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you. He

will take your sons and appoint them for himself for his chariots, and to

be his horsemen. And some shall run before his chariots. And he will

appoint him captains over thousands and captains over fifty, and will set them to

ear his ground and to reap his harvest, and he had to make his

instruments of war, and instruments of his chariots. And he will take your

daughters to be confectioneries, and to be cooks, and to be bakers.

And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your olive yards,

even the best of them, and give and give them to his servants.

He will take the tenth of your seed and of your vineyards, and

give to his officers and to his servants. And he will take your men's

servants, and your maid servants, and your goodly and your goodliest young men,

and your asses, and put them to his work. He will take

the tenth of your sheep, and ye shall be his servants. And ye

shall cry out in that day because of your king, which ye shall have

chosen you, and the Lord will not hear you in that day. Nevertheless,

the people refuse to obey the voice of Samuel, and they said,

nay, but we will have a king over us, that we also may

be like all the nations, and that our king may judge us and go

out before us and fight our battles. And Samuel heard all the words of

the people, and he rehearsed them in the ears of the Lord, and

the Lord said to Samuel, hearkened to their voice, and make them a

king. As Samuel said it to the men of Israel, go ye,

every matter to the city. So that's the Book of First Samuel, chapter

eight reading. All right, So what happens as Israel becomes rebellious and narrow

minded and instead of having God, you know, rule over them and being

led by God and wanting to put God first, what Israel did was they

wanted a king. They wanted man. They wanted authority to their figure,

and a man he liked figure. They wanted the king to rule over them

and judge them instead. Because Samuel's two sons went astray, to two of

his sons then follow Samuel's footsteps, so that kind of caused some confusion when

it comes to leadership or examples being set. So they're like, you know,

forget this and that and forget all that. We'll just let's have a

kingdom. Point does will appoint two? And Samuel got mad at it because

Samuel's anger was like, y'all should be wanting God, not a man.

You know what I mean. You shouldn't be wanting to listen to the man's

voice was listening to God's voice, you know, that's where Samuel was coming

from. So Samuel went to the Lord about it, and then the Lord

just told him, hey, just make them king anyway, you know,

because the Lord was mature about it. And the lawyer was said to himself

to say to Samuel, like, well, hey, these people I got

them out of Egypt. It look how they still act him. So you

know, give him what they want. Basically, So Samuel and the Lord

had that back and forth or what have you, and they just went from

there, all right. So the example out of chapter eight First Samuel is

like, let God be over your life, and not no man or no

no man, no woman, no child, no beasts, nothing. Don't

let no thing a person rule over you. Only let the heavily Father rule

over you. Amen, because you know he has all the answers. He

is the one who created everything, so he's the one who is the source

and the provider. Amen. So that was the Book of First Samuel,

chapter eight reading. Now we're gonna go to the Book of First Samuel chapter

nine. Reading. All right, First Samuel, chapter nine, here we

go. Now, there was a man of Benjamin whose name was Kish,

the son of Abbia, the son of Zaroor, the son of bet Harath,

the son of Apia, a Benjamite, a mighty man of power.

And he had a son whose name was Saul, a choice young man and

a goodley. And there was not among the children of Israel a goodlier person

than him than he. From his shoulders and upward he was higher than any

of the people. And the asses of Kish, Saul's father, were lost.

And Kish said, saw his son, take now one of the servants

with thee, and arise, go seek the asses. And he passed through

the Mount Ephraim, and passed through the land of Shalisha, but they found

him not. Then they passed through the land of Salem, and there they

were not. And he passed through the land of the Benjamites, but they

found him not. And when they were come to the land of Zeff,

Saul said to a servant that was with him, come and let us return,

lest my father leave caring for the asses, and take thought for us.

And he said to him, beholding out. There is in the city

a man of God, and he is an honorable man. All that he

said surely come to pass. Let let's go thither per adventure, he could

show us our way that we should go. Then said Saul to a servant.

But behold, if we go, what shall we bring the man.

For the bread is spent in our vessels, and there's not a present to

bring to the Man of God. What have we And a servant answered Saul

again and said, behold, I have here at hand the fourth part of

a shekel of silver, that will I give to the Man of God to

tell us our way. Before time in Israel, when a man went out

to inquire of God, thus he spoke, come and let us go to

the seer. For he that is now called a prophet was before time called

a seer. Then said Saul to a servant. Well, said come,

let us go. So they went into the city where the Man of God

was. And as they went up to the hill of the city to the

city, they found young maidens going out to draw water, and said,

un to them, is the seer here? And they answered him and said

he is. Behold, he is before you make haste. Now before he

came day to day. He came to day to the city. For there's

a sacrifice of the people today in the high place. As soon as ye

became becoming to the city, ye shall straight away find him before he go

up to the high place to eat, for the people will not eat until

he come, because he does bless the sacrifice. And afterwards they eat that

that be bidden. Now, therefore, get you up, for about this

time ye shall find him. And they went up into the city. And

they were coming into the city. Behold, Samuel came out against them,

for to go up to the high place. Now the Lord had told Samuel

in his ear a day before Saul came, saying, tomorrow about this time,

I will send thee a man out of the land of Benjamin, and

thou shalt annoint him to be captain over my people Israel, that he may

save my people out of the hand of the Philistines. For I have looked

upon my people because their cry is coming to me. And when Samuel saw

Saul, the Lord said it to him. Behold the man whom I speak

to, thee of the same shot ran over my people. Then Saul drew

drew near to Samuel in the gate and said, tell me, I pray

thee where the seer's houses. As Samuel answers, Saul said, I am

this year, go up before me into the high place, for ye shall

eat with me today and tomorrow. I'll let THEE go, and will tell

THEE all that is in thine heart. And as for thy Nassis, that

we're lost three days ago, set not thy mind on them, for they

are found. And on whom is all the desire of Israel? Is it

not on THEE on all thy father's house? And Saw answered that said,

am I not a Benjamin of the smallest of the tribes of Israel, and

my family the least of the families of the tribe of Benjamin. Where for

them speaketh thou so to me. As Samuel took Saul and his servant and

brought them into the parlor, and made them sit in the chiefest place among

them that were bidden, which you're about thirty persons. As Samuel said it

to the cook, bring the portion which I give THEE, of which I

set it to THEE. Set it by THEE. And the cook took up

the shoulder and that which was upon it and set it before Saul. And

Samuel said, behold that which is left, set it before THEE and eat.

Until this time hath it been kept for THEE since I said, I

have invited the people. So Saul did eat with Samuel that day. And

when they were come down from the high place into the city, Samuel communed

with Saul upon the top of the house, and they arose early, and

it came to pass about the spring of the day that Samuel called Saul to

the top of the house, saying up that I may send thee away.

At sal arose and they went out, both of them, and he and

Samuel abroad. And as they were going down to the end of the city,

Samuel said to Saul, bid the servant pass on before us, and

he passed on, but stand on, but stand thou still a while,

that I may show thee the word of God. So just the book of

First Samuel, chapter nine reading, so on this part a Saul and his

assistant and a servant. We're looking for their lost sheeps. So this is

kind of a funny, interesting story of how they met overall with Saul.

But Saul is looking for lost sheep, and it's kind of interesting how Jesus

made that parable about if one sheep goes missing, you know what have you.

So you kind of see that being displayed right here in First Samuel chapter

nine. So so Saul is looking for is one of his lost sheeps along

among the land. So they went to one place, they couldn't find it.

They go to another place they find it. But as soon as they

come around the area Israel, that's when they get it, you know.

So that's kind of funny interesting, and also got to speak it to Samuel

and saying, Hey, a man who is going to brain over Israel,

I'm bringing him away. So he's actually Saw is a Benjaminite. He's from

the tribe of Benjamin. So it says that in chapter nine. So Samuel

and Saul link up. They meet up, they chop it up, they

eat, they go up to the high place, they make their sacrifices,

they do their thing, and then Samuel tells Saw everything and then they go

on their ways. Right, so that is not an introduction of Saul.

All right. So before people were called profits, they were called seers,

s E. R. Sears, you know. So that's that for chapter

nine. Now we're gonna go to the book of First Samuel chapter ten.

All right, First Samuel, chapter ten, Here we go. Then Samuel

took a vow of oil and poured it upon his head and kissed him and

said, is it not because the Lord hath annoyed to THEE to be captain

over his inheritance when thou art departed from me. Today, then thou shalt

find two men by Rachel's sepultry sepulture and the board of Benjamin at Zilza,

and they will say it to THEE that asks us, which thou wanted,

what ones to seek are found? And low that father hath left the care

of the asses as sorrow with for you, saying what shall I do for

my son? Then shalt thou go on forward from thence, and thou shalt

come to the plane of Tabor, and there shall meet the three the three

men going up to God to Bethel, one carrying three kids, and another

carrying three loaves of bread, and another carrying a bottle of wine. And

they will salute THEE and give THEE two loaves of bread, which thou shalt

receive of their hands. After that thou shalt come to the hill of God,

whereas the garrison of the Philistades, and that shalt come to pass when

thou art come thither to the city, that thou shalt meet a company of

prophets coming down from the high place, with the sault street and a tabret

and a pipe and a harp before them, and they shalt prophesies, they

shalt prophesy, and the spirit of the Lord will come upon THEE. And

thou shalt prophesy with them, and shalt be turned into another man. And

let it be, when these signs are coming to THEE, that thou do

as occasion serve THEE. For God is with THEE. And now shalt go

down before me to go gaul and behold, I will come down unto THEE

to offer burnt offerings and to sacrifice sacrifices of peace offerings. Seven days,

shalt thou terry till I come to THEE and show THEE what thou shalt do.

And it was so that when he had turned his back to go from

Samuel, God gave him another heart. And all those signs came to pass

that day. And when they when they came thither to thither to the hill,

behold, the company of prophets met him, and the Spirit of God

came upon him and prophesized among them. And it came to pass when all

that knew him before time saw that behold, he prophesized among the prophets.

Then the people said, one to another, what is this that has coming

to the son of kish is Saul among the prophets, And one of the

same places answer that said, but who was their father? Therefore became a

proverb as Saul among the prophets. And when he had made an end of

prophetizing, he came to the high place and saw's uncle's son unto him and

to a servant with or you went ye, and he said to seek the

asses. And when we saw, hold on my bad, y'all may read

all of that whole, and one of the same plate place answered I said,

but who is their father? Therefore it became a proverb. It saw

also among the prophets. And when he had made an end of prophetizing,

he came to the high place, and sauce uncle said it to him and

to his servant whither went ye, and he said to seek the asses.

And when we saw that they were nowhere, we came to Samuel, and

Saut's uncle said, tell me, I pray thee was Samuel said, unto

you, as Sauce said to his uncle, he told us plainly that the

asses were found. But the matter of the kingdom, where if Samuel spoke,

he told him not. And Samuel called the people together and to the

Lord to misspay, and said, unto the children of Israel, thus saith,

the Lord, God of Israel, I brought up Israel out of Egypt

and delivered you out of the land of the Egyptians, and out of the

hand of all kingdoms and of them that oppressed you. And ye have this

day rejected your God, who himself saved you out of all your adversities and

your relations. And ye have said it to him. Nay, but said

a king over us. Now therefore, present yourselves before the Lord, by

your tribes and by your thousands. And when Samuel had called how the triber

is or to come near the tribal Benjamin was taken. When he had caused

the tribe Benjamin to come near by their families, the family of Matri was

taken, and saw the son of Kish was taken, And when they sought

him, he could not be found. Therefore they acquired the Lord further if

the man should yet come thither. And the Lord answered, behold, he

hath hid himself among the stuff. And they ran and fetched him. Thence

and when he stood among the people, he was hired than any of the

people from his shoulders and upward. And Samuel said to all the people,

see ye him whom the Lord hath chosen, that there is none like him

among all the people. And all the people shouted and said, God save

the king. Then Samuel told the people the manner of the kingdom, and

wrote it in a book and laid it up before the Lord. And Samuel

sent all the people away, every man to his house, and saw also

went home to Kulbia could be Ulbia, And there went with him a band

of men whose hearts God had touched. But the children of Belial Belio said,

how shall this man save us? And they despised him and brought him

no presence, But he held his peace. So that's the book of First

Sauel, chapter ten. So this is the process of Saul becoming the king

over people and prophesizing and what have you at being among Israel and things of

that nature. As Samuel is introducing Saul to the people of showing him who

God presented and who has God chosen, had God chosen over them? But

God was still a bit, you know, angry about how they wanted a

king over them of him. You know what I mean, Because God is

a jealous God, and God wants all the glory, all the power,

all the credit. But when people give that over to man, that causes

more complications and issues, you know what I'm saying. But the thing about

giving your power to people, people will always fail you, all right.

Everybody's flawed, every person. Whether a person has a high status or no

status or low status, doesn't matter, man, woman, child. If

anybody could disappoint anybody any given moment, it takes one situation to you know,

disappoint a lot of people, have you. So that's why you don't

put all your stock, all your faith in man. We're supposed to put

our faith in the Lord, all right, our trust in the Lord,

all right? But Israel didn't do that. Israel. We're self willed people,

very rebellious, stiff neck, hard headed idol worshipers. You get up

saying so, but that's just how everything kind of played out. But this

is Samuel presents us all to Israel, all right. Also Samuel saying what

the Lord told him to tell everybody. Okay, So that was basically like

a prophet, this yere a messenger. They were basically like messengers profits and

they were there to just deliver what the Lord told them. All right,

So now that was chapter ten reading. Now we're gonna go to the book

of First Samuel chapter eleven. All right, First Samuel, chapter eleven,

Here we go. Then the Hash the Ammonite came up and encamped against Jabish

glead and all the men of Jabe said, until the Hash make a covenant

with us, and we will serve THEE. And the Hash the Ammonite answered

them, on this condition, will I make a covenant with you, that

I may thrust out all your right all your right eyes, and lay it

for a reproach upon all Israel. And the and the elders of Jabek said

to him, give us seven days respite, that we may send messages to

all the coasts of Israel, and then if there be no man to save

us, we will come out to THEE. Then came the messages of Gabiah

of Saul and told the tidings in the ears of the people, and all

the people lifted up their voices and wept, and behold, Saul came after

the herd out of the field, and Saul said, what alieth, what

aileth the people that they weep? And they told him the tidings of the

men of Jabish. And the spirit of God came upon Saul when he heard

those tidings, and his anger was kindled greatly, and he took a yoke

of Oxen and hoot, and healed them in pieces, and sent them throughout

all the coasts of Israel by the hands of messengers, saying, whosoever cometh

not forth after Saul and after Samuel, so shall it be done unto his

Oxen. And the fear of the Lord fell on the people, and they

came out with one consent. And when he numbered them in Bazek, the

children of Israel were three hundred thousand, and the men of Judah thirty thousand.

And they set it to the messages that time, thus shall ye say

unto the men of Jabishkili tomorrow. By that time the sun be hot,

ye shall have help. And the messengers came and showed it to them,

showed it to the men of Jabish, and they were glad. Therefore,

the men of Jabisch said, tomorrow we will come out until you, and

ye shall do with us all the seemeth good until you. And it was

so on tomorrow that Saul put the people in three companies, and they came

into the midst of the host in the morning watch and slew the Emmonites until

the heat of the day. And it came to pass that day which remained

and they and that day they which remained were scattered, so that two of

them were not left together. And the people said to Samuel, who is

he that says shall reign, that shall Saul reign over us, bring the

men that we may put them to death. And Saul said, there shall

not a man be put to death this day, for today the Lord hath

route salvation in Israel. Then says Samuel to the people, come and let

us go to Gogal and renew the kingdom there. And all the people went

to Gogal, and there they made Saul king before the Lord and Gogal,

and there they sacrificed sacrifices of peace offerings before the Lord and their Saul,

and all the men of Israel rejoiced greatly. All right. So that's the

book of first seven, chapter eleven. This is where Saul and ever in

all Israel slade the Ammonites and things of that nature. And then they all

rejoiced and celebrated and gathered together afterwards. All right, So now we're going

to go into the Book of First seven, chapter twelve. All right,

Now we're going to chapter twelve. All right, So here we go.

And Samuel said, unto Israel, behold, I have hearkened until your voice

and all that ye has ye said unto me, and have made it king

over you. And now behold the King walkedth before you, and I am

old and gray headed. And behold my sons are with you, and I

have walked before you from my childhood until this day. Behold here I am

witness against me before the Lord, and before it's anointed. Whose ax have

I taken? Or whose ass have I've taken? Or of whom I have

defrauded, whom I have oppressed, or of whose hand have I received any

bribe to blind mine eyes? My eyes therewith, and I will restore it

to restore it you. And they said, thou hast not defrauded us,

nor oppressed us, neither hast thou taken out of any man's hand. And

he said, unto them, the Lord is witnessed against you, and it's

annointed as witness this day, that ye have not found out in my hand.

And they answered, he is witnessed. And Samuel said, unto the

people, it is the Lord that advanced Moses and Aaron, and that brought

your fathers up out of the land of Egypt. Now therefore stands still that

I may reason with you before the Lord all of the rights of all the

righteous acts of the Lord, which he did to you and to your fathers.

When Jacob was come into Egypt, and your fathers cried unto the Lord,

then the Lord sent Moses an Erran, which brought forth your fathers out

of Egypt and made them dwell in this place. And when they forgot the

Lord their god, he sold them unto the hand of Sasira, captain of

the host of Hazer, and into the hand of the Philistines, and into

the hand of the king of Moab. And they fought against them. Excuse

me, and they cried unto the Lord, and said, we have sinned

because we have forsaken the Lord and have served Baalim, and asked to Roth,

But now deliver us out of the hand of our enemies, and we

will serve thee and the Lord sent Jeru Baal and Badan, and jef Thah

and Samuel, and delivered you out of the hand of your enemies on every

side. And ye dwelled safe. And when ye saw that Nahash, the

king of the children of Amman, came against you, he said to me,

nay, but a king rayn shall reign over us, when the Lord

your God was your king. Now therefore behold the King whom ye have chosen,

and whom who ye have desired. And behold the Lord hath said the

King over you. If ye will fear the Lord and serve him, and

obey his voice, and not rebel against the commandment of the Lord, then

shall both ye and also the King that reigneth over you continue following the Lord

your God. But if ye will not obey the voice of the Lord,

but rebel against the commandment of the Lord, then shall the hand of the

Lord be against you, as it was against your fathers. Now therefore,

standing and see this great thing which the Lord will do before your eyes.

Is it not we harvest today? I will call it to the Lord,

and he shall send thunder reign, that ye may perceive and see that your

wickedness is great, which ye have done in the sight of the Lord,

and asking you a king. So Samuel called it to the Lord, and

the Lord sent thunder and reigned that day, and all the people greatly feared

the Lord of Samuel. And all the people said it to Samuel, pray

for thy service to the Lord, thy God, that we die not,

for we have added it to our sins, this the evil to ask us

a king. And Samuel said it to the people, fear not ye have

done all this wickedness. Yet turn not aside from falling the Lord. But

serve the Lord with all your heart. And turn ye not aside. For

then should yet ye go after vain things which cannot profit nor deliver, for

they are vain. For the Lord will not forsake his people for his great

namesake, because it hath pleased the Lord to make you his people. Moreover,

ask for me. God forbid that I should sin against the Lord and

ceasing to pray for you. But I will teach you the good and the

right way. Only fear the Lord and serve him in truth with all your

heart. For consider how great things he had done for you, that if

ye shall still do wickedly, ye shall be consumed both ye and your king.

All right. So that's the Book of First Samuel, chapter twelve.

All right. So there you can see that as Samuel really talking to Israel

heart to heart and telling them what God is telling Samuel and showing him to

God sent rain and thunder on Israel, and they put fear of them because

God's anger was kindled that they asked for a king instead of him, you

know. And the God was reminded them of how he looked out for Abraham

esca Jacob, and how he looked out for most, and Aaron High looked

out for all Israel, and y'all still want a king over all, you

know what I'm saying. So God had to put that fear of the Lord

in Israel to make them, you know, humble themselves. You get what

I'm saying. So that's the Book of First Samuel, chapter twelve. Now

we're going to go to a Book of First Samuel chapter thirteen. All right,

Now we're going to chapter thirteen. Here we go. Saul reigned one

year, and when he had reigned two years over Israel, Saul chose him

three thousand and whereof two thousand were with Saul and Mickmash Michmash and in Mount

Bethel, and a thousand were with Jonathan and Gulbe of Benjamin and the rest

of the people. He sent every man to his tent, and Jonathan smoked

the garrison the Philistines that was in Giba, and the Philistines heard of it,

and Saul blew the trumpet throughout all the lands, saying, let the

Hebrews here and all Israel heard say that Saul had smitten the garrison of the

Philistines, and that Israel also was had an abomination with the Philistines. And

the people were called together after Saul to Gagaul, and the Philistines gathered to

themselves together to fight with Israel. Thirty thousand chariots, six thousand horsemen,

and people asked the Sad which is on the seashore in multitude, and they

came up and pitched in Mickmosh Mitchmosh eastward from beth Avon. When the men

of Israel saw that they were in a strait, for the people were distressed,

then the people did hide themselves in caves and the thickets, and the

rocks, and a high places, and the pits, and some of the

Hebrews went over Jordan to the land of Gad and Glead. As for Saul,

he was yet in Gilgal, and all the people followed him, trembling,

and he tarried seven days according to the said time that Samuel had appointed.

But Samuel came not to go Gall, and the people were scattered from

him. And Saul said, bring hither a burnt offer to me and peace

offerings. And he offered the burnt offering. And it came to pass that

as soon as he heard, as soon as he had made an end of

offering of the burnt offering, behold, Samuel came, and Saul went out

to meet him, that he might salute him. And Samuel said, what

hast thou done? And Saul said, because I saw that the people were

scattered from me, and that thou camest not within the days appointed, and

that the Philistines gathered themselves together, that at Mikmash. Therefore said I the

Philistines will come thou now upon me to Gigau. And I have not made

this application to the lord. I forced myself therefore and offer a burnt offering.

As Samuel said to Saul, thou has done foolishly thou has not kept

the commandment of the Lord thy God, which he commanded thee. For now

would the Lord have established thy kingdom upon Israel forever. But now thy kingdom

shall not continue. The Lord Hath saw him a man after his own heart,

and the Lord Hath commanded him to be captain over his people, because

thou hast not kept that which the Lord commanded THEE. And Samuel rose and

goad and gat him up from Gogau until Gibia of Benjamin, and saw numbered

the people that were present with him, about six hundred men, and saw

in Jonathan his son, and the people that were present present with him present

with them Abode and Gabia of Benjamin. But the Philistines are camped in Micmash,

and the spoilers came out of the camp of the Philistines in three companies.

One company turned into the way that leaded to offer to the lab Shoal,

and another company turned the way of to Beth haran On. Another company

turned to the way of the border that looked to the valley of Zobeium toward

the wilderness. Now there was no smith found throughout all the light of Israel.

For the Philistines for the Philistines, said, lest the Hebrews make them

swords or spears. But all the Israelites went down to the Philistines to sharpen

every man his share at his culture and his as his mattalk. Yet they

had, they had a foul for the mattaks, and for the cults,

and for the forks, and for the oxes, and to sharpen the goads.

So it came to pass in the day of battle that there was neither

sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people that were with

Saul and Jonathan. But with Saul and with Jonathan his son was there found.

And the garret of the Philistines went out to the passage of mcmash or

assessed the Book of First Sales, chapter thirteen. So on this part we

get to see Jonathan Jonathan with Saul's son, and Jonathan slay the garrison for

the Philistines. So the Philistines gathered together and a camp close to Israel and

mcmash around the land and wanted war and wanted to fight, and what have

you. Now what happened with Saul. Saul didn't have proper leadership. Saul

didn't harket to the Lord's commandment. Saul didn't keep God first, neither did

he kept the people together. So it happened was the people were trembling in

the fear. They were all scattered all over, and Saul didn't have proper

leadership, neither did he follow the Lord. So Samuel comes up to Saul

and says, hey, this kid's going down to drain and God found somebody

else. So Saul has to break the news down to him, all right,

because Saul went out and did offerings and had the people scattered and you

know, confused and misladded fearful, and Saul then wasn't a good example of

following the Lord's commandment. So Samuel had to break it down to him.

So now keeps going on a detail about Saul and Jonathan. All right,

So that was the Book of First Samuel, chapter thirteen. Now we're gonna

go to the Book of First seven, chapter fourteen. All right, Now

we're in chapter fourteen. Here we go. Now, it came to pass

upon a day that Jonathan, the son of Saul, said it to the

young man that bare his armor, come and let us go over to the

Philistines garrison, that is on the other side. But he told not his

father and saul Terry in the uttermost part of Gabia under a promegrant tree,

which is in mcgran. And the people that were with him were about six

hundred men, and Ahia, the son of a hit tub I, Chabad's

brother, the son of Phineas, the son of Eli, the Lord's priest,

and Shiloh wearing it a fid. And the people knew not that Jonathan

was gone. And between the passages by what Jonathan sought to go over to

the Philistines garrison. Garrison there was a sharp rock on the one side and

a sharp rock on the other side, and the name of one was Bazzaz,

and the name of the other Seney. The forefront of the one was

situate northward over against Mitchmosh mitch Mash, and the other southward over against Gabia.

And Jonathas said to the young man that bear his armor, come and

let us go over to the garrison of these uncircumcised. It may be that

the Lord will work for us, for there is no restraint to the Lord

to say by many or by few. And as armor bears said armor,

Barris said to him, do all that in thy heart turn thee. Behold,

I am with THEE according to thy heart. Then said Jonathan, behold,

we will pass over to these men, and we will discover ourselves and

to them. If they say that, if they say thus to us,

teary till we come to you, then we will. We will stand still

in our place and will not go up unto them. But if they say,

thus, come up unto us, then we will go up. For

the Lord had delivered them into our hand, and this shall be a signer

to us. And both of them discovered themselves into the garrison of the Philistines.

And the Philistines said, behold, the Hebrews come forth out of the

holes where they had hidden themselves. And the men of the garrison answered Jonathan,

as armor bearer, said, come up to us, and we will

show you a thing. And Jonathan said to his armor bearer, come up

after me, for the Lord had delivered them into the hand of Israel.

And Jonathan climbed up upon his hands and upon his feet, and his armor

bearer after him, and they fell before Jonathan, and his armor bearer slew

after him. And that first slaughter which Jonathan and his armor bearer maid was

about twenty men within as they were, and half bearer maid was about oh

my bad, y'all. And that first slaughter with Jonathan and his armor bear

maid was about twenty men within as they were, and half acre of land

which a yoke of Oxen might plow. And there were there was trembling in

the host, in the field, and among other people. The garrison and

the spoilers they had also they also trembled, and the earthquaked, So it

was a very great trembling. And the watchmen of Sault and Gabia of Benjamin

looked and behold, the multitude melted away, and they went on beating down

one another. Then said saw to the people that were with him numbered now

at see who was gone from us. And when they had numbered, behold

John than his armor bearer were not there, as Saw said it to Heia,

bring hither the ark of God. For the Ark of God was at

the time with the children of Israel. And it came to pass while Saul

talked it to the priest, that the noise that was in the host of

the Philistines went on and increased. As Saul said it to the priest,

withdraw thine hand and saw and all the people that were with him assembled themselves,

and they came to the battle, and behold, every man's sword was

against his fellow, and there was a very discomfort her. Moreover, the

Hebrews that were with the Philistines before that time, which went up with them

into the camp from the country round about, even they also turned to be

with the Israelites that were with Saul and Jonathud. Likewise, all the men

of Israel which had hid themselves and Mount Ephraim, when they heard that the

Philistines fled, even they also followed hard after them in the battle. So

the Lord saved Israel that day, and the battle passed over into beth Haven

beth Haven, and the men of Israel were distressed that day, for Saul

had adjured the people, saying, curse be the man that eateth any food

until evening, that I may be avenged online enemies. So none of the

people tasted any food. And all they of the lad came to a wood,

and there was honey upon the ground. And when the people were coming

to the wood, behold the honey dropped. But no man put his head

to his mouth, for the people feared the oath. But Jonatha heard not

when his father charged the people with the oath. Wherefore he put forth the

end of the rod that was in his hand, and dipped it in a

honeycomb, and put his hand to his mouth, and his eyes were enlightened.

Then answered, when the people had said the father strictly charged the people

with an oath, Thy cursed be the man that eateth any food to stay.

And the people were faint. Then Jonathan said, my father had troubled

the land. See I pray you, how my eyes have been enlightened because

I have tasted a little of this honey. How much more if happily the

people had eaten freely to the day of the spoil of their enemies, which

they found, For had there not been not much, now a much greater

slaughter among the Philistines. And they smoked the Philistines that day from mick Mash

to Agalon. And the people were very faint. And the people flew upon

the spoil and took the sheep and oxen at coals and slew them on the

ground, and the people did eat them with the blood. Then they told

Saul, saying, behold, the people sin against the Lord, and that

they eat with the blood. And he said, ye have transgressed, roll

a great stone to me their stay. And Saul said, Sau said,

disperse yourselves among the people, and said, tell them bring me hither every

man his ox and every man his sheep, and slay them here and eat,

and send not against the Lord, and eating with the blood. And

all the people brought every man his ox with him that night and slew them

there, and saw built an altar unto the Lord. The same was the

first altar that he built unto the Lord. And Saul said, let us

go down after the Philistines by night and spoil them until the morning light,

and let us not leave a man of them. And they said, do

whatsoever seemeth good unto thee. Then said the priest, let us draw near

hither until God. And Saul asked, Counsel of God, shall I go

down after the Philistines with thou deliver them unto thy hand, unto the hand

of Israel. But he answered him not that day, and Saul said,

draw junior, ye hither all the chief of the people, and know and

see wherewith wherein this sin hath been their stay. For as the Lord Liveth,

which saveth Israel though it be, and Jonathan my son, he shall

shally die. But there is not a man among all the people that answered

him, then said he. Then he then said he into all Israel,

b ye on one side, and I and Jonathan my son will be on

the other side. And the people SAIDA to Saul, do what seemeth good

to thee. Therefore Saw Sau SAIDA to the Lord God of Israel, give

a perfect lot. And Saw and Johnathan were taken. But the people escaped,

and Saw said, castlets between me and Jonathan my son. And Jonatha

was taken. Then Saul said to Jonathan, tell me what thou hast done.

And Jonatha told him and said, I did but taste a little honey

with the end of the rod that was in my hand, And lo,

I must die. And Salt answered God, do so and more. And

also for thou shalt sharley die Jonathan. And the people SAIDA to Saul,

shall Jonathan die? Who hath wrought this grace salvation in Israel? God forbid,

as the Lord liveth, that shall not one hair of his head fall

to the ground, For he hath wrought with God this day so the people

rescued Jonathan that he died not then Saul went up from following the Philistines,

and the Philistines went to their own place. So Saul took the kingdom of

over Israel. So Saul took the kingdom over Israel. And fought against all

his enemies on every side, against Moab, and against the children of Aman,

and against Edam, and against the kings of Zabab, and against the

Philistines. And with her soever he turned himself, he vexed them, and

he gathered in host and smote the Amelokites Amelakites, and delivered Israel out of

the hands of them that spoiled them. Now the sons of Saul were Jonathan

and a Shuei Ashoy a shy Mess pronounced Shuey, and Milkai Shua. And

the names of his two daughters were these. The name of the first born

was Mirab, and the name of the younger Michal Michal. And the name

of Saul's wife was at Hanoum, the daughter of Ahimaaz. And the name

of the captain of his host was Abner, the son of Ner, Saul's

uncle. And Kish was the father of Saul, and Ner, the father

of Abner, was the son of Ebiel. And there was sure and there

was sore war against the Philistines all the days of Saul. And when Saul

saw any strong man or any valiant man, he took him unto him.

All right, So that you have it. That's the book of First Samuel,

chapter fourteen reading. All right, So you're kind of seeing all this

battle in the war, all against the Philistines, and Jonathan and his armor

bearer really slayed a lot of men, and you know the wonder battles.

The Lord delivered the battle to Jonathan's hand, all right. So what happened

was is there on their journey, Saul was basically saying like, hey,

anybody who east this day gonna be cursed and shall die. And Jonathan wasn't

there to hear it. So john to have some honey. He got hungry,

and then when he ate, people fainted and were like, hey,

you know your dad's said out to do this. It's the other your father

said how to do that? And Jonathan plea and said, well, hey,

we just want a battle. How are we not going to eat something

and rejoice? You know what I mean? So there's a lot of split

division between one person wanted to do something and another doing another thing. But

that falls back on Saul and I have a proper leadership. So when you

don't have proper leadership and you're dealing with people who all want to do their

own thing, that caused more division than divide. Right, But later on

throughout chapter fourteen, Saul was casting lots between him and Jonathan, and then

you know, the people were like taking John de side. They're like,

why would you want to kill your own son when this man just fought a

battle for a god and want us you know, he said he won the

battle for Israel. Why would you want to slay your own son. So

you know, the people came through on Joan's johnath deside and rescued him,

so that's that's good, and also slayed more people. He slayed more of

the enemies. So Saul was a king, a warrior and really fighting it

with Israel as well. Didn't have the best leadership, but he was still

doing what he had to do. And he also in the later in chapter

fourteen, discussed his bloodline, his wife, his daughters, and his sons

as well. All right, so now we're going to go into the Book

of First Samuel, chapter fifteen. All right, now we're going to chapter

fifteen. Here we go. Samuel also said it to Saul, the Lord

sent me to anoint thee to be king over his people over Israel. Now

therefore, hearkening thou unto the voice of the words of the Lord. Thus

set the Lord of hosts. I remember that which Amelek did to Israel,

how he laid weight for him in the way when he came up from Egypt.

Now go and smite Amelik, and utterly destroy all that they have,

and spare them not, but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling,

ox and sheep, camel and ass And saw the people together and numbered

them in te Liam two hundred thousand footmen and ten thousand men of Judah.

And Saul came into a city of Amelik and laid weight in the valley,

and sauct to the knights. Go depart, get you down from among the

Amlakites. Amelakites, less I destroy you with them, For ye showed kindness

to all the children of Israel when they came up out of Egypt. So

the knights departed from among the amela Kites and Saul smoked the Amilakites from have

Allah until comest to sure that it's over against Egypt. And he took a

gag a gag agag, the king of the Amelikites, a life, and

utterly destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword. But Saul and

the people spared agag and the best of the sheep, and of the oxen,

and of the fat links, and the lamps, and all that was

good, and would not utterly destroy them. But everything that was viol and

refused that they destroyed utly. Then came the word of the Lord to Samuel,

saying, it repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king,

for he is turned back from following me, and hath not performed my

commandments. And it grieved Samuel, and he crowded to the Lord all night.

And when Samuel rose early to meet Saul in the morning, it was

told Samuel sang Saul come came to Carmel, and behold, he set him

up a place, and has gone about and passed on and gone down to

Gagong. And Samuel came to Saul, and Saul has said it to him.

Blessed be Thou of the Lord. I performed the commandment of the Lord.

And Samuel said, what meaneth then this the bleeding of the bleeding of

the sheep in my ears, and the lowing of the oxen which I hear.

And Saul said, they have brought them from the amelo Kites, for

the people spared the best of the sheep and of the oxen to suck afice

it to the Lord thy God, and the rest we have utterly destroyed.

Oh, let me just repeat that, y'all. And Saul said, they

have brought them from the Melokites, for the people spared the best of the

sheep and of the oxen to sacrifice it to the Lord thy God, and

the rest we have utterly destroyed. That. Samuel said it to Saul.

Stay, and I will tell thee what the Lord hath said to me this

night. And he said it to him. Stay say on, And Samuel

said, when thou wast little in thy own sight, was thou not made

the head of the tribes of Israel? And the Lord annoyed to thee king

over Israel. And the Lord sent thee on a journey and said, go

and utterly destroy the sinners, the Melakites and fight against them until they would

they be consumed. Wherefore then didst thou not obey the voice of the Lord,

But did thou fly upon the spoil, and did hist evil in the

side of the Lord. And Saul said it to Samuel, Yeah, I've

obeyed the voice of the Lord, and I've gone away which the Lord sent

me, and I've brought there a god, a king of Amelek and Elder

destroyed amelocarts, but the people took of the spoil, sheep and oxen,

the chief of the things which should have been el destroyed to sacrifice to the

Lord, thy god and gogal as Samuel said, hath the Lord as a

great delight and burnt offering and sacrifice as an obeyed the voice of the Lord.

Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the

fat of rams. For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft and stubbornness is

as iniquity and idolatry. Who because thou has rejected the ware of the Lord,

he hath also rejected thee from being king. And Saul said, un

to Samuel, I have sin, for I have transgressed the commandment of the

Lord. And thy words, because I feared the people and obeyed their voice.

Now therefore I pray THEE pardon my sin, and turn again with me,

that I may worship the Lord. And Samuel said it to Saul,

I will not return with THEE, for thou hast rejected the ware of the

Lord, and the Lord hath rejected THEE from being king over Israel. And

as Samuel turned about the goal away he laid, he laid hold upon the

skirt of his mantle. In it rent, as Samuel said to him,

the Lord hath rent the king the kingdom of Israel from THEE this day,

and hath given it to a neighbor of thine that is better than thou.

And also the strength of Israel will not lie nor repent, for he is

not a man that he should repent. Then he said, I have sinned,

yet honor me. Now I pray THEE before the eldest of my people

and before Israel, and turn again with me, that I may worship the

Lord, thy God. So Samuel turned again after Saul, and Saul worshiped

the Lord, and then said, Samuel, bring ye hither to me a

god. The king of the Emilo Kites and a god came to him delicately,

and a God said, surely the bitterness of death his past. As

Samuel said, as the sword hath made women childless, so shall thy mother

be childless among the women. And Samuel hooed agg and pieces before the Lord,

ingogal that Samuel went to Ramah, and Saul went up to his house

to gabia of Saul, and Samuel came no more to see Saul to the

day of his death. Nevertheless, Samuel mourned for Saul, and the Lord

repented that he had made Saul king over Israel. So that's the Book of

first seven, chapter fifteen. That's a pretty heavy chapter right there, because

there's so much that's going on all at once. So the summer Riser God

is telling Samuel to tell Saul, when you go to the Malachites, kill

everything everybody there, just get rid of all of it. What Saul did

was instead of killing the King of God, the King of God, he

spared him. And then the people of Israel they did they took the best

of the ox and sheep and they kept it. They're supposed to kill it,

and they kept it. And then try to honor God with it with

like burn sacrifices and peace offerings or whatever. And then that angered God and

it also angered and grieved Samuel. So now Samuel and God are having this

conversation like, hey, God is telling Samuel, hey, man, I

regret making this man the king because look what he's doing. He's not hearkings

in my voice. And then Samuel is really pressing Saul over this, He's

really letting him have it. And I just love the part of first sunch

after fifteen, you know, I love when it says that obedience is better

than sacrifice, you know, like Samuel really went in on that, you

know. So now this is the process of where God is taken Saul from

being a king. He's taken out away from him because he disobeyed too much.

He didn't have proper leadership and he didn't set the right example. So

now Samuel has to break it all down to him and find another king,

all right. So that's chapter fifteen. And also Samuel end up having to

kill it because since Saul didn't do it, Samuel did it, you know.

So you know, and that time prophets priest um they were killers,

you know, they were they were they were they were slay their warriors.

You know, none numbers soft and all that they were. They were men

of the ward. They were member of the most high men of the most

high ware warrior like you know, even if you were a priest or a

prophet, even if you're the holiest of the holiest, you still got your

hands dirty too. But all for the sake of the Lord. It wasn't

like sensus killing like today, you know what I mean. Like it was

a purpose and meaning behind it. You know, God laid us to you

know, slay our enemies, you know what I mean. Times are a

bit different now, so uh, you know, now we fast forward to

the day's society, the world is more violent than ever. So um Jesus

telling us to be gentle as a dove and watch as a serpent, and

if you live by that's what you're gonna die by it. So we have

to go about things differently than how the ones before us did because of the

time and that were in you know what I mean. So yeah, it's

just interesting to see how things were back then to see how things are now.

All right, So that's the first Samuel chapter fifteen. Now we're gonna

go to the book of First Samuel, chapter sixteen. All right, chapter

sixteen, here we go, Okay, hold on before we go, Chap

sixteen. I just wanted to read this, just those last kind of a

few verses of first Name, chapter fifteen. I really really that one really

hit. And then you know, he said if Samuel said half the Lord

asked great delight and burnt, offering the sacrifices as it obeyed the voice of

the Lord. Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken

than the fat of rams. There's a scription of Proverbs that says that too,

how obedience is better to sacrifice, and Samuel says it here. And

then Samuel also says, for rebellion is as in the sin of witchcraft,

and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry, because that has rejected the word of

the Lord. He also has rejected thee from being king. So Samuel really

went in on it's all about that. So that was like, like,

Samuel went in on that. So that's something we have to take. You

know, we cannot be rebellious, we cannot be us stiff nick was stubborn

man. That's that's a nickel idolatry, all right, no more son of

witchcraft, no mur being rebellious, no more stubbornness, no more nickel adolatry.

All right, Let's really be obedient listeners, Let's be better, all

right. We gotta get it right people. I speak for myself as well,

and all of us. We gotta hold each other accountable. We gotta

do better with our obeying and our listening. All right. So I just

want to read that last part. So now we're gonna go into book A,

first Samuel, chapter sixteen. All right, So here we go,

and the Lord's son into Samuel. How long wilt thou mourn for Saul,

seeing guy have rejected him from reigning over Israel, fill thine horn with oil,

and go, And I will send thee to Jesse, the beth Lemight,

beth beth le Hemight, beth le Hemight, for I have provided me

a king among his sons. As Samuel said, how can I go?

If Saul here it? He would kill me? And the Lord said,

taking heap with THEE, and say, I am come to sacrifice to the

Lord, and called Jesse to the sacrifice. And I will show Thee what

thou shalt do and thou shalt anoint unto me him whom I name unto thee.

And Samuel did what that which the Lord spoke, and came to Bethlehem.

And the eldest of the town trembled at his coming, and said,

comest thou peacefully, peacefly peacefully. And he said, peacefuly, I come

to sacrifice to the Lord. Sanctify yourselves, and come with me to the

sacrifice. And he sanctified Jesse and his sons and called them to the sacrifice.

And it came to pass when they were come that he looked on Eliab

Eliab and said, surely the Lord's anointing is before him. But the Lord

said to Samuel, looked not on his countenance or on the height of his

stature, because I have refused him. For the Lord seeth not as man

seeth, for man looketh on the outward apparents. But the Lord looketh on

the heart blood. That scriptures so much. I want to read that one

more time. I love that one so much. But the Lord, Senator

Samuel, look not on the council, not look now on his counselors,

or on the height of his stature, because I have refused him. For

the Lord seeth not as man seeth, for man looketh on the outward apparents,

but the Lord look upon looketh on the heart. Then Jesse called at

ben Adab and made him pass before Samuel, and he said, neither hath

the Lord chosen this. Then Jesse made should should Shamah to pass by,

and he said, neither hath the Lord chosen this. And again Jesse made

seven of his sons to pass before Samuel, and Samuel said, un to

Jesse, the Lord had not chosen these. As Samuel said to Jesse,

are here all thy children? And he said, there remaineth it yet the

youngest, and behold he keepeth the sheep. And Samuel sent to Jesse,

said, and fetch him, for we will not sit down till till he

come hither. And he sent and brought him in. Now he was ruddy

and withal of a beautiful countenance, and goodly to look to. And the

Lord said, arise, anoint him, for this is he. Then Samuel

took the horn of oil and anoint him in the midst of his brethren.

And the spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day for it so

Samuel rose up and went to Ramah. But the spirit of the Lord departed

from Saul, and an evil spirit from the Lord troubled him, and saw

a servants said unto him, behold now an evil spirit from God troubleth thee.

Let our Lord. Now command thy service, which are before thee,

to seek out a man who was a cunning player on a harp. And

I shall come to pass when the evil spirit from God is upon thee,

that he shall play with his hand, and thou shalt be well. And

Saul said it to his servants, Provide me now a man that can play

well, and bring him to me. Then answered one of the servants and

said, behold, I have seen a son of Jesse, the Bethlemite,

that is cunning and playing, and a mighty valiant man, and a man

of war, and prudent in matters, and a comely person. And the

Lord is with him. Wherefore Saul sent messages into Jesse and said, send

me David, thy son, which is with the heart with the sheep.

At Jesse took an ass Laddin with bread and a bottle of wine and a

kid, and sent them by David, his son, to Saul. And

David came to Saul and stood before him, and he loved him greatly,

and he became his armor bearer. As Saul sent to Jesse saying, let

David, I pray thee stand before me, for he hath found favor in

my sight. And it came to pass when the evil spirit from God was

upon Saul that David took a harp and played with his hands. So Saul

was refreshed and was well, and the evil spirit from him. So that's

the Book of First Samuel, chapter sixteen reading. So that was chapter sixteen.

So this is the part where God tells Samuel to go to go look

for the king to anoint him and go to Bethlehem, go to Jesse and

bring out all his sons to the sacrifice. As Saul was a little I

mean, Samuel was a bit nervous because Samuel was like, well, hey,

ain't Saul gonna see this, you know, saw it gonna be tripping.

And then the Lord's like, hey, just just say like we're gonna

do an offering, just still a sacrifice and keep it moving. Just still

go there. So Samuel goes there and he goes gets Jesse out the land.

He gets Jesse and all his sons, and Samuel's first impression was Okay,

maybe it's this one. But God told Samuel, no, it's not

him. And then God told Samuel like, hey, man looks at parents.

I look at the heart and I refused and rejected him, so it's

not him. And that Samuel went through all his sons and God was like,

no, not him, not him, not him. Him. So

then Samuel says, well, hey, that's all the sons you have,

and He's like, I got another one. But he's a keeper of the

sheep. He's a shepherd, he's the youngest. So and then he went

and got David. He fetched it and got David, and then God said

this is the one, and then he annoints it David and made him king

and went from there. And then Saul. God sent an evil spirit upon

Saul. So Saul was a bit restless. He couldn't sleep dealing with all

those different things. So in order for Saul to have some peace and an

evil spirit to depart, a musician had to be in sight. A heart

player had to beat her. So David was a great musician, could play

the heart very well. So David was in the midst of Saul and now

saw him David are dealing with each other, all right. So that's a

Book of First Samuel chapter sixteen. Now we're about to go in the Book

of First Time chapter seventeen. All right. But I just love how when

God said he looks at the heart of a person and not the appearance.

And I'm like, man, that that scripture is just so powerful because we

look at today. Everybody's so external and vain and you know, proud of

life, the lust of the eyes, you know, all these different things.

We always look at superficial things about each other. But God sees the

heart. You know. That's the problem with us. We don't see the

hearts of people. We just see just the outside stuff. And I just

love how God told Samuel that, And that's something we have to apply to

our lives. We serve a God who looks at the hearts, who search

the hearts. We don't serve a guy who's about the outside, even though

we're made his image of likeness and everything. God is not about vanity or

vain things or superficial stuff. Everything with God is all about the inside,

the core, you know what I mean. That heart is important, man,

the heart, So the heart is everything all right, So let's always

remember that. Now we're gonna go to the Book of First Samuel, chapter

seventeen and continue from there. Right, So here we go. Now,

the Philistines gathered together their armies to battle, and we're gathered together at Shukluck

Shaka Shook Shecha, which belonged to Judah, and pitched between Shacha Shaka and

Azeka in Eis Demim and Saw in the middle of Israel. Were gathered together

and pitched by the valley of Allah, and set the battle in array against

the Philistines. And the Philistines stood on the mountain on the one side,

at Ezra stood on the mountain on the other side, and there was a

valley between them. And there went out a champion out of the camp of

the Philistines named Goliath of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span,

and he had a helmet of brass upon his head, and he was

armed with a coat of mail, and the weight of the coat was five

thousand shekels of brass. And he had greaves of brass upon his legs,

and a target of brass between his shoulders, and the staff of his spear

was like a weaver's beam and his spears. Spears head weighed six hundred shekels

of iron, and one bearing a shield went before him. And he stood

and crowded to the armies of Israel, and said to them, why are

ye come out to set your battle in array? Am I not a philistine?

And ye service to Saul. Choose you a man for you, and

let him come down to me. If he be able to fight with me

and to kill me, then we'll be will be your servants. But if

I prevail against him and kill him, then shall be ye. Shall ye

be our servants and serve us. And the Philistine said, I defy the

armies of Israel's day, give me a man that we may fight together.

When Saul in all Israel heard those words of the Philistine, they were dismayed

and greatly afraid. Now David was the son of the Ephramite of Bethlehem,

Judah, whose name was Jesse, and he had eight sons. And the

man went among them, went among men for an old man, for an

old man in the days of Saul. And the three eldest sons of Jesse

went and followed Saul to the battle, and the names of his three sons

that went to the battle were eliab Alib, the firstborn, and next him

had been a dab and the third Shamah, and David was the youngest and

the three eldest followed Saul. But David went and returned from Saul to feed

his father's sheep at Bethlehem. And the Philistine drew near morning and evening and

presented himself forty days and Jesse said unto David, his son, take now

for thy brethren in Ifa of this parch corn, this parch corn, and

these ten loaves, and run to the camp to thy brethren, and carrying

these ten cheeses until the captain of their thousand, and look how they brethren

fair and take their pledge. Now Saul and they and all the men of

Israel were in the valley of Allah of elay Elah fighting with the Philistines.

And David rose up early in the morning and left the sheep with the keeper,

and took and went as Jesse had commanded him. And he came to

the trench as the host was going forward to the fight, and shouted for

the battle for Israel. And the Philistines had put the battle in array,

army against army. And David left his carriage in the hand of the keeper

of the carriage, and ran into the army, and came and saluted his

brethren. And as he talked with them, behold, there came up to

the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, out of the

armies of the Philistines, and spoke accorded to the same words. And David

heard them. And all the men of Israel, when they saw the man,

fled from him and were sore afraid. And the men of Israel said,

have ye seen this man that has come up, showed to fight Israel?

Is he come up? And shall be that the man who killeth him,

the King will enrich him with great riches, and will give him his

daughter and make his father's house free in Israel. And David spoken to the

men that stood by him, saying, what shat be done to the men

that killeth this philistine and taketh away the reproach from Israel? For who is

this uncircumcised philistine that he should defy the armies of the Living God? And

the people answered him after this manner, saying, so shall it be done

to the man that killeth him, and he lived the eldest brother heard when

he spoken to the men, a live's ankle was kindled against David. And

he said, why camest thou down hither? And with whom hast thou left

those shoes sheep in the wilderness. I know thy pride, and now that

naughty, that haughtiness of thy heart, for thou art come down, that

mightiest might have see the battle. And David said, what have what have

I now done? Is there not a cause? And he turned from him

towards another, and spoke after the same matter, And the people answered him

again the former manner, the former matter. And when the words, when

the words heard which David spoke, they rehearsed them before Saul, and he

sent for him. And David said to Saul, let no man's heart fail

because of him, Thy servant will go and fight with this philistine. And

Saul said to David, thou art, not might be thou art not able

to go against this philistine to fight with him, For thou art but a

youth, and he as a man of war from his youth. And David

said it to Saul, thy servant, keep his father's sheep. And there

came a lion and a bear, and took a lamb, and took a

lamb out of the flock. And I went out after him. I smote

him, and I delivered it out of his mouth. And he arose against

me, and I caught him by his beard and smote him and slew him.

Thy servants slew both the lion and the bear, and this uncircumcised philistine

shot be as one of them, seeing he hath defied the armies of the

living God, David said, moreover, the Lord hath delivered me out of

the paw of the lion and out of the paw of the bear. He

would delivered me out of the hand as philistine I saw, said it to

David. Go and the Lord be with thee, and saw armed David with

his armor, and he put him. He put an helmet of brass upon

his head, and also armed him with a coat of mail. And David

girded his sword upon his armor, and he assayed to go. He essayed

to go, for he had not proved it. And David said to Saul,

I cannot go with these, for I have not proved them. And

David put them off, and took his staff in his hand, and chose

some five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in a shepherd's

bag, which he had even in the script. And his sling was in

his hand, and he drew near to the Philistine. And the Philistine came

on and drew near to David, and the man that bear the shield went

before him. And when the Philistine looked about and saw David, he disdained

him, for he was a bud of youth and reddy, and of a

accountenance. And if Philistine said to David and my dog, that thou comest

to me with staves, and the Philistine curse David by his gods. And

the Philistine said to David, come to me, and I will give thy

flesher to the fouls of the air and to the beasts of the field.

Then said David to the Philistine, thou comest to me with a sword,

and with a spirit, and with a shield. But I come to thee

in the name of the Lord of Hosts, the God of the armies of

Israel, whom thou hast defied this day. Will the Lord deliver thee unto

my hand, and I will smite thee and take thine head from thee And

I will give the carcasses of the host of the Philistines to day until the

fouls of the heir, and to the wild beasts of the earth, that

all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel, and all

this assembly shall know that the Lord saveth not with the sword and spirit,

for the battle is the Lord's, and he will give you into our hands.

And it came to pass when the Philistine arose and came and drew nigh

to meet David, that David hasted and ran toward the army to meet the

Philistine. And David put his hand in his bag and took a fensive stone

and slang it and smote the Philistine in his forehead, that the stone sunk,

That the stone sunk into his forehead, and he fell upon his face

to the earth. So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling, and

with a stone, and a smote the Philistine and slew him. But there

is no sword in the hand of David. Therefore David ran instead upon the

Philistine and took his sword and drew it out the sheath thereof, and slew

him and cut off his head therewith, And when the Philistines saw their champion

was dead, they fled, and the men of Israel and of Judah arose

and shouted and pursued the Philistines until thou come to the valley and to the

gates of Ekron. And the wounded of the Philistines fell down by the way

to shah Ram, shayar Ram, shayar Ram, even unto Gath and Ron.

And the children of Israel returned from chasing after the Philistines, and they

spoiled their tents. And David took the head of the Philistine and brought it

to Jerusalem. But he put his arm in his tent. And when Saul,

and when Saul saw David go forth against the Philistine, he said to

Abner, the captain of the host, Abner, whose son is this youth?

Abner said, that's my soul lived, Oh King, I cannot tell.

The King said, inquire thou whose son the stripling stripling is? And

as David returned from the slought of the Philistine, Abner took him and brought

him before Saul, with the head of the Philistine in his hand. And

Saul said to him, whose son art thou thou young man, and David

answered, I am the son of thy servant Jesse, the Bethlemite. That

you have it, y'all. That's the book of first seven, chapter seventeen.

That's so awesome. I love how that is displayed. Everybody loves the

story of David. Donna. Who doesn't love that story, right? I

love the details about it. Though I liked it. I love the details

of it too. I love how David brought up how he killed the lion

and the bear. I could get rid of this philistine. You know,

that confidence, that trusting the Lord, that power, that's the power of

God. We're supposed to walk in with that confidence, you know what I'm

saying. I love that. I love how he said that the battle is

the lords, and the Lord doesn't go by sword and by spirit. But

you know, I came in the name of the Lord. I just love

how you said that, you know, And that's how we have to approach

our life. We have to approach our life like the battle is the lords,

and we everything we approach, we come in the name of the Lord.

All right. It's not always self willed, it's not always objects or

things we need. Is all we need is the Lord. That's all David

needed, and so always trying to give him all these extra fancy stuff,

trying to give him a helmet and the brass and the armor bearer, all

these different tools and a sword and all that, and they was like,

I don't need that. Let just get my few stones. I get rid

of this, dude. And I think that's just so cool and so funny,

you know what I mean. But it just shows how God could make

so much big things happen out of little things, you know what I'm saying.

And I was proven just through that scenario all in itself, you know.

So I think that's always amazing to have that that King David mindset when

it comes to war and our obstacles or what faces us. You know,

that confidence, that trust and the Lord working with what we have. That's

what matters, you know, because God gets all the glory out of it,

you know what I mean. So that's what's about the end of the

day. You know, David glorified God through defeated Goliath. David didn't glorify

himself. He didn't he glorified God through that. Remember, David wasn't man

after God's own heart. So that's just very beautiful to see. And we

know David had his ways when you know, we will get to that more

than the Bible series, but just at this part, you know, this

is a very beautiful part. So there you have it. That's the Book

of First Samuel, chapter seventeen. Now we're going to a book of First

Samue chapter eighteen. All right, the Book of First Semi chapter eighteen.

Here we go. And it came to pass, when he had made an

end of speaking to Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the

soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul. And Saul

took him that day and would let him go no more home to his father's

house. And then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him

his own soul. And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was upon him

and gave it to David and his garments, even to his sword, and

to his bow a bow, and too as a girdle. And David went

out whatsoever with thesoever Saul sent him, and behaved himself wisely, and Saul

set him free, set sam over the men of war, and he was

accepted in the side of all the people, and also on the side of

saul servants. And it came to pass, as they came when David was

returned from the slot of the Philistine, that the women came out of all

the cities of Israel, singing and dancing to meet King Saul, with tabrets,

with joy, and with instrum mints of music. And the women answered

one another as they played, and said Saul had slain his thousands, and

David his ten thousands. And Saul was very wroth, very angry, and

the saying displeased him, and he said, they have ascribed it to David

ten thousands, or to me they have ascribed but thousands. And what can

he have more but the kingdom. And saw David from that day and Ford

foo man. And it came to pass on tomorrow that the evil spirit from

God came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house,

and David played with his hand as at other times, and there was a

javelin in Saul's hand, and Saul castle javelin, where he said, I

will smite David even to the wall with it. And David avoided out of

his presence twice, and Saul was afraid of David, because the Lord was

with him and was departed from Saul. There For Saul removed him from him

and made him his captain over a thousand, and he went out and came

in before the people. And David behaved himself wisely in all his ways,

and the Lord was with him. Wherefore, when Saul saw that he behaved

himself very wisely, he was afraid of him. But all Israel and Judah

loved David, because he went out and came in before them. And Saw

said to David, behold my elder daughter, Marab, her I will give

thee to wife. Only be thou valiant for me and fight the fight the

lord's battles. For Saul said, let not my hand be upon him,

but let the hand of the Philistines be upon him. And David said to

Saw, who am i, and what is my life or my father's family

in Israel? That I should be son in law to the king. But

it came to pass at that time when Marab, Saul's daughter should have been

given to David, that she was given it to Adrill the Mahalothite, to

wife and Michal. Saul's daughter loved David. And they told Saul, and

the thing pleased him, And Saul said, I will give him her,

that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of Philistine

may be against him. Wherefore, saw said to David, thou shall this

day be my son in law and the one of the twine of the twain.

And Saul commanded his servants, saying, commune with David secretly, and

say, behold, the king hath the light in thee, and all his

servants love thee. Now therefore be the King's son in law. And Saul's

servants spoke those words in the ears of David. And David said, seemeth

seemeth it to you a light thing to be a king's son of law,

seeing that I'm a poor man and lightly esteemed. And the servants of Saul

told him, saying, on this matter spoke David, And Saul said,

thus shall ye say to David. The king desireth not any dory, but

in a hundred four skins of the Philistines to be advance of the king's enemy

king's enemies. But Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of Philistines.

And when his servants told David these words, it pleased David well to

be the king's son in law and the king's and the days were not expired.

Wherefore David Rosen went he and his men and slew the Philistines, two

hundred men, and David brought their four skins, and they gave them in

full tale to the king, that he might be the king's son in law.

And Saul gave him Michael his daughter, the wife, and Saul saw

and knew that the Lord was with David, and that Micheal, Saul's daughter,

loved him, and Saul was yet more afraid, yet the more afraid

of David, and Saul became David's enemy continually. Then the Princess of the

Philistines went forth, and it came to pass after they went forth, that

David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul, so that his

name was much set by right. So that's the Book of First Samon,

chapter eighteen reading. So this is where you see Saul starting to really be

jealous of David and really have it out against him. And Saul was really

just had an eye out of him, you know, because when the women

came singing and dancing, the women said, you know, sauce late a

thousand men, David's late ten thousand men. You know, so really like

the women kind of add insult to injury as far as the man's prior to

ego, Saul was a very prideful ego man, so his jealousy got his

own way. He just took it out on David, and David never did

saw no harm. David always played the heart for him. David was kind

of like helping him out and everything, and Saul still has something against him,

you know, and the women singing the dance to kind of really fuel

that fire. You know, a man's jealousy will always be exposed one way

or another. So the funny part is David only just killed one at that

time. He just killed Goliath. That was it. But that was the

equivalent of thousands of men, you know, that like thou ten thousands of

men. You know, when you take out the champion, the king,

like the biggest warrior out of that nation that has equip even to many people.

So Saw really felt a certain way about that, and he got real

sour tight about it. So he just really started tripping on David since then

and when the word says he became an enemy towards David, but David dealt

wisely with it. You know, David was aware of it, and you

know he had a duck and dodge him. You know, saw even had

a javelin and wanted to Pierson with it. That's how crazy jealousy is.

That's how jealousy and you know envied, that's how serious those emotions and spirits

are. Those a very diabolical spirit. So it's very hard to deal with

those things. I'm pretty sure you all have dealt with a jealous person before,

or you've dealt with someone who just had it out against you. It

could be a friend, a co worker, a family member, a business

partner, it could be anybody. Jealousy. It doesn't discriminate. Jealousy could

be anybody. Hell, there's some people have jealous spouses, some people have

a jealous spouse, a jealous X or jealous friend. Jealousy is everywhere.

Man, so very crazy to that type of energy. Trust, like,

it's very crazy to deal with that jealousy spirit. Man. You know,

that's how we got to be wise about certain people. How we go about

things, how we express ourselves, or how we obtain or succeeding things.

You gotta be like always mindful of those things, you know what I mean.

So sometimes people be jealous of you and you don't even have much to

even have in the first place. In this part in Samuel First Time,

chapter eighteen, the scripture says that David was poor. David was a poor

man and low esteemed even just besides the killing the life part, his status

was still low, you see what I'm saying. And and Saul was still

jealous of him. So that shows you that a person can have more in

life than you and still be jealous of you. Because remember the scripture says

that all Israel loved David, all Israel, all Judah loved David, embraced

him. That David was for the people. David was for Israel, he

was for Judah, he was for everybody. So when you loved on a

mass level, that breaks more jealousy, you see what I'm saying, Because

Saul, Saul didn't get that love. Saul wasn't he didn't have good favor

like that. You got to remember what Saul became king. People didn't even

bring any President to him. They don't even bring him no gifts. So

Saul is really coming from this like bitter place. Saul comes from a place

of knowing what it's like to have it all and still not satisfied with his

own self, you know what I mean. So it's just crazy how things

could play out, you know what I mean, And that how we could

actually it's crazy how our life and our situation actually relates to the word of

these stories. You know. It's just crazy, you know, But that's

just very funny to me. All right, So that was a Book of

First seven, chapter eighteen. Now we're gonna go to the Book of First

Samuel, chapter nineteen. All right, Book of First seven, chapter nineteen.

Here we go. Also ps and the key note. It also said

in chapter eighteen, how Saul was even afraid of David, and how he

was he saw how the Lord was with David. He was afraid of him.

You know, I terminated by him, you know what I mean.

So just crazy situations overall. So now we'll go to the First Sandwich chapter

nineteen. And Saw spoke to Jonathan, his son, and to all his

servants that they should kill David. But Jonathan saw his son delighted much in

David. And Jonathan told David's him, saw my father seek it to kill

THEE. Now, therefore I pray THEE take heed to thyself until the morning,

and abide in the secret place, and hide thyself. And I will

go out and stand beside my father in the field where thou art, where

thou art, and I will commune with my father of THEE. And what

I see that I will tell THEE. And Jonathan spoke good of David,

until Saul his father, and said, until him, let the king sin

against his servant, against David, because he hath not sinned against THEE,

and because his works have been to THEE. The word good, very good.

For he did put his life in his hand and slew the Philistine,

and the Lord wrought a great salvation for all Israel. Thou saw us and

did his rejoice. Wherefore then will thou sin against innocent blood to slay David

without a cause? And saw harken unto the voice of Jonathan, And Sauce

wore, and as the Lord liveth he shall not be slain. And Jonathan

called David, and Jonathan shrewd him all those things. And Jonathan brought David

to Saul and said, and he was in his presence as in times passed,

and there was war again, and David went out and fought with the

Philistines and slew them with a great slaughter, and they fled from him.

And the evil spirit from the Lord was upon Saul as he sat in his

house with his javelin in his hand, and David played with his hand,

and Saul sought to smite David, even to the wall with the javelin,

but he slipped the way out of Saul's presence, and he smote the javelin

and to the wall, and David fled and escaped. That night also sent

messengers into David's house to watch him and to slay him in the morning,

and Michal, David's wife told him, saying, if thou save not thy

life tonight tomorrow thou shalt be slain. So Michelle la David down through a

window, and he went and tied and flood and escaped. And Michel took

an image and laid it in the bed, and put a pillow of goat's

hair for his boilster, and covered it with a cloth. And when Saul

set messages to take David. She said, he is sick. And Saw

set the messages again to see David, saying, bring him up to me

in the bed, that I might slay him. And when the messages were

come in, behold there was an image in the bed with a pillow of

goats hair for his bolster. As Saw said to Michelle McCall, why hast

thou deceived me so and sent away my enemy? That he escaped, And

McCall said, answer Saul, He said to me, let me go,

Why should I kill thee? So David flood An escaped and came to Samuel

to Ramah and told him all that Saw had done him. And Samuel went

and dwelt in the naia thal naiof naiof now off, and it was told

Saul saying, behold, David is at nahoov in Ramah. And Saul sent

messengers to take David. And when they saw the company of the prophets prophesizing,

and Samuel standing as a pointed over them, the spirit of God was

upon the messages of Sault, and they also prophesized. And when it was

told Saul, he sent other messagers, and they prophasized likewise, and Saul

sent messages again the third time, and they prophesized also then when he also

to Ramah and came to a great well that is in Shshou, and he

asked and said, where are Samuel and David? And once I behold they

be at Naouth and Ramah. And he went thither to Naoth, Nioth and

Rama as the spirit of God was upon him also, and he went on

and prophasized until he came to Nioth in Ramah, and he stripped off his

clothes also and prophasized before Samuel and like manner and laid down naked all that

day and night. Wherefore they say it saw also among the prophets. So

that's a book of First Samuel, chapter nineteen reading. So this is just

more crazy and more bizarre situation. So Saul is really like wanting to get

rid of David. He's telling his own son that, and Jonathan and David

like best friends, they loved each other. And Jonathan looked out for David

and was telling him like, yo, my pop's trying to get rid of

you, bro, So you gotta flee, you gotta flee, you gotta

get out of here. So Saul even try to throw a javelin at David

to the wall, and David had to run out the house and if hiding

a secret place. And then when David went to his wife, his wife

even had to try to save David. So his wife told David like,

hey, my father's coming after you. You gotta get out of here.

So she let David escape through a window. And then what David's wife did,

it was so funny. She basically put like an image and some goat

hair in the bed, and he made it seem like somebody was laying down.

So when Saul sent his messengers to go kill David his own wife house,

David wasn't there, and his wife stood up for him and looked out

for his behalf. So it just showed you how David had a good best

friend in Jonathan, and he also had a good wife who had his back

and his best interest. And then you know, and even the crazy part

is, you know, he told Jonathan's telling Saw his own father like,

hey, this man just did a great thing for Israel. Why would you

shud innocent blood, you know what I mean? And then Saul was like,

yeah, I hear you, I hear you. And then Saw still

went after him anyway. So it just shows you what hate and jealousy and

malice can do, man, and how I could destroy a lot of things

so much. Things get destroyed due to jealousy, ego, pride, insecurity,

infurity, you know, like all those weird negative emotions, you know

what I mean, Like I think that's just weird when people carry those type

of spirits, But that's just how it is, man, you know what

I mean. So yeah, man, when people walk around that energy,

they try to take it out on the wrong people and it just becomes more

messy. So David is bouncing around, fleeing and fleeing. So David ran

into Samuel, and David Samuel and the others they're all like you know,

in the congregation, they're wholly keeping it, wholly praising and prophesizing things of

that nature. So yeah, man, you know, David really lived on

the edge man. From the jump, so very funny. That was chapter

nineteen reading a First Samuel. Now we're gonna go into the Book of First

Samuel chapter twenty, all right, We're gonna go into chapter twenty, all

right, So here we go, And David fled from naof and rama and

came in and said before Jonathan, what have I done? What is my

iniquity? And what is my sin? Before thy father? That he seeketh

my life? And he said it to him, God forbid thou shall not

die. Behold, my father will do nothing either great or small, but

that he will show it me. And why should my father hide this thing

from me? It is? It is not so. And David moreover and

said, thy father certainly knoweth that I have found grace in thy eyes.

And he said, let not Jonathan know this unless he be grieved. But

truly, as the Lord liveth, and as thou as thy soul liveth,

there is but a step between me and death. Then Jonathan said to David,

whatsoever thy soul delight desireth, I will even do it from thee.

And David's son to Jonathan, behold, tomorrow is the new moon, and

I should not fail to sit with the king at mill. But let me

go that I may hide myself in the field to the third day at evening.

If thy father at all missed me, then say David earnestly asked leave

of me, that he might run to Bethlehem, his city, for there

is a yearly sacrifice there for all the family. If he say thus is

well, thy servant shall have peace. But if he be very angry,

very wroth, then be sure that evil is determined by him. Therefore thou

shalt deal kindly with thy servant, for thou hast brought thy servant and to

covenant of the Lord with THEE. Notwithstanding, if there be an iniquity slaying

my slay me thyself. For why shouldst thou bring me to thy father?

And Jonathan said, far be it from THEE. For if I knew certainly

that evil were determined by my father to come upon THEE, then would would

not I tell it THEE? Then David said Jonathan, who shall tell me?

Or what if thy father answered THEE roughly? And Jonathan said to David,

come and let us go out in the field, into the field.

And they went out, both of them, into the field. And Jonathan

said to David, oh Lord God of Israel, when I have sounded my

father about tomorrow any time or the third day, and behold, if there

be good toward David and I, then send not unto THEE and show it

THEE the Lord do so, and much more to Jonathan. But if but

if it pleased my father to do thee evil. Then I will show in

THEE and send thee a way that thou mayest go in peace, and the

Lord would be with thee, and the Lord be with thee as he hath

been with my father. And thou shalt not only while yet I live showed

me the kindness of the Lord, that I die not. But also thou

shalt not cut off thy kindness from my house forever, not know not when

the Lord hath cut off the enemies of David everyone from the face of the

earth. So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, saying,

let the Lord even acquired at the hand of David's enemies. And Jonathan caused

David to swear again because he loved him, for he loved him as he

loved his own soul. Then Jonathan said to David, tomorrow is the new

moon, and thou shalt be missed, because thy seat will be empty.

And when thou has stayed three days, then shalt thou go down quickly and

come to the place where thou did hide thyself when the business was in hand,

and shall remain by the stone. Ezel Izl will shoot three arrows in

the side thereof as thou I shot out of mark and behold, I would

send the lads, saying, go find out the arrows, if I expressly

saying to the land, behold, the arrows are on to thee, and

no hurt, as the Lord liveth. But if I say this until the

young man behold the arrows are beyond thee, go thy way, for the

Lord hath sent thee away. And as touching the matter which thou and I

have spoken of, behold, the Lord be between thee and me forever.

So David hid himself in the field, and when the new moon was come,

the king sat him down to eat meat. And the king sat upon

the seat as at other times, even upon the seat by the wall,

and Jonathan arose, and Abner sat by saul side, and David's place was

empty. Nevertheless, Sault spoken not anything that day, for he thought something

hath befollowed him. He also he is not clean. Surely he is not

clean. And it came to pass on tomorrow, which was the second day

of the month, that David's place was empty, And Saw said to Jonathan's

son, whereforth cometh not the son of Jesse, to meet neither yesterday nor

today, and Jonathan answer, saw David earnestly answer Saul. David earnestly asked

leave of me to go to Bethlehem, and he said, let me go.

I pray THEE for our family hath a sacrifice in the city, and

my brother he hath commanded me to be there. And now if I have

found favor in thine eyes, let me get away. I pray THEE and

see my brother. Therefore he cometh. Not until the king's table that Sauce

anger was kindled against Jonathan, and he said it to him, Thou,

son of the perverse rebellious woman, do I do not know? Do not

I know that thou hast chosen the son of Jesse to thine own confusion,

And until the confusion of thy mother's nakedness, For as long as the son

of Jesse liveth upon the ground, thou shalt not be established nor thy kingdom.

Wherefore, now, son, and fetch him to me, for he

shall surely die. And Jonathan answered sauces father and said, unto him,

wherefore shall he'd be slain? What hath he done? And sawcaster javelin at

him to smite him. Whereby Jonathan knew that it was determined of his father

to slay David. So Jonathan arose from the table in fierce anger and did

eat no meat the second day of the month, for he was grieved for

David because his father had done him shame. And it came to pass in

the morning that Jonathan went out into the field at the time appointed with David

and a little lad with him, and he sent to his lad run find

out now the arrows would try to shoot. And as the lad ran,

he shot an arrow behind him beyond him. And when the lad was come

to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan cried after the

lad, and they said, it's not that an arrow beyond the and Jonathan

cried, after the lad, make speed, hey, stay not, And

Jonathan's lad gathered up the arrows and came to his master. But the lad

knew not anything. Only Jonathan and David knew the matter. And Jonathan gave

his artillery until his lad and said, unto him, go and carry them

to the city. And as soon as the latter was gone, David a

rose out of a place toward the south and fell on his face to the

ground. And bowed himself three times, and they kissed one another and wept

one with another until David exceeded. And Jonathan said to David, go in

peace, for as much as we have sworn both of us in the name

of the Lord, saying the Lord be between me indeed, and between my

seed and thy seed forever. And he rose and departed, and Jonathan went

into the city. So that's the book of First Sauel, chapter twenty reading,

all right. And I was discussing the bond between Jonathan and David,

and how Jonathan's father saw it was really tripping and it caused some tension and

drama things of that nature. So Jonathan and David letting nothing get in between

their bond and let nothing get in their in the way of their covenant,

all right. So they had really valued that friendship very well, all right.

So that's the reading, that's the mess for it today. All right.
