“Consider it all joy, my brothers and sisters, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.”

‭‭— James‬ ‭1:2-4‬ ‭(NASB)

“Satan loves to try to pamper us with temporal comforts. God loves to strip them away so we’ll find ultimate comfort in Him alone.”

1 Samuel 16:5-12 NIV. [5] “Samuel replied, “Yes, in peace; I have come to sacrifice to the Lord. Consecrate yourselves and come to the sacrifice with me.” Then he consecrated Jesse and his sons and invited them to the sacrifice. [6] When they arrived, Samuel saw Eliab and thought, “Surely the Lord’s anointed stands here before the Lord.” [7] But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” [8] Then Jesse called Abinadab and had him pass in front of Samuel. But Samuel said, “The Lord has not chosen this one either.” [9] Jesse then had Shammah pass by, but Samuel said, “Nor has the Lord chosen this one.” [10] Jesse had seven of his sons pass before Samuel, but Samuel said to him, “The Lord has not chosen these.” [11] So he asked Jesse, “Are these all the sons you have?” “There is still the youngest,” Jesse answered. “He is tending the sheep.” Samuel said, “Send for him; we will not sit down until he arrives.” [12] So he sent for him and had him brought in. He was glowing with health and had a fine appearance and handsome features. Then the Lord said, “Rise and anoint him; this is the one.”

Psalm 78:70-72 (NIV). [70] “He chose David his servant and took him from the sheep pens; [71] from tending the sheep he brought him to be the shepherd of his people Jacob, of Israel his inheritance. [72] And David shepherded them with integrity of heart; with skillful hands he led them.”

“David: A Picture of Servanthood” by In Touch Ministries:

“God will work through any person whose heart is submitted to Him.”

“Throughout his life, David served God in multiple capacities. The biblical account shows how his devotion in various roles allowed him to be used mightily by the Lord:

Shepherd. David was anointed king long before he took the throne (1 Samuel 16:1-13). During his days of waiting, he learned to be strong and brave, and to take care of those weaker than himself. An early life of obedience to his human father taught him the humility he would need later to depend on God.

Psalmist. David’s writings reveal his hunger for the Lord. He is open about his fear, depression, defeat, loneliness, and sorrow. By describing valley experiences and communing with the Father in the night watches, David provides us with intimate glimpses of the God he knew so well.

Commander. He ruled Israel for 40 years, and his people called Jerusalem the “City of David.”

His life also teaches us about the consequences of sin and the limitlessness of God’s grace. King David served God’s purpose not only when he lived but also ever since: Through writings by and about him, countless believers have been blessed by David’s obedience, service, and talents. He is a great example of what God can accomplish through those who yield their life to Him.”
