Meditate On
Then Jesse said to his son David, “Take now
for your brothers an ephah of this dried grain and these ten loaves, and run to
your brothers at the camp. And carry these ten cheeses to the captain of their
thousand...”
1 Samuel 17:17–18
Submission
Releases God’s Favor
You are probably familiar with the story of
David and Goliath. But do you remember how this shepherd boy ended up on the
battlefield to begin with?
David was there to deliver bread and cheese
to his brothers who were in the army. And yet, David found himself standing on
the battlefield as Israel’s representative against the haughty Goliath. From
delivering bread and cheese, he was now called upon to deliver the entire
nation of Israel.
David was at the right place at the right
time because he humbled himself and submitted to his father’s instructions to
deliver bread and cheese to his brothers.
Beloved, this is something you need to
understand. Submission to God-appointed leadership will always cause God’s
favor to flow in your life, and you will find yourself, like David, at the
right place at the right time, empowered by God to do the right thing!
