I Samuel 28-31
What God said to me – When David was facing a great trial and distress, he strengthened himself in Me because he knew I was the source of all he needed. Where do you turn when you encounter difficulties, and you are overwhelmed? Do you seek the counsel and strength of others, or do you turn to Me? The answer to that question reveals your heart and faith. Are you wholly devoted to Me? Do you really trust that all that happens in your life is for your good and My glory? If you want to be able to respond correctly when you encounter various trials and difficulties you must stay close to Me and walk with Me in everyday occurrences. If you cannot be faithful in the day to day, you will fall when times get tough. The day to day walk with Me prepares you for all you will encounter later. Be diligent. Remain faithful.
