1 Samuel 30:1-30

When life feels overwhelming, where do we turn? The story of David at the Brook Besor offers five encouraging observations: people get overwhelmed, God’s strength is sufficient, God’s providence is real, God’s grace rules the day, and victory is for sure. David discovers strength by recognizing God as his God, reaching out to him in prayer, and reciting his promises. At the Brook Besor, God reminds us that our victories are gifts of grace, meant to be shared, and that ultimate victory belongs to the Lord. In Christ, that victory is already secured through his death and resurrection.
