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!
