Dying to Self
(Read Romans 6:12-14)
This morning we continue our series “Grace that is Simply Amazing.” Yesterday we took a look at the symbolism behind water baptism. The Apostle Paul painted a picture for us, upon the canvas of our minds, that made it painstakingly clear that we (as New Testament believers) should embrace the fact that we are dead to sin and alive in Christ.

Saul just-so-happened to use the bathroom in the the cave that David was hiding in.

God is SO Good to Us!
(Read 1 Samuel 23:13,14 NLT) So David and his men—about 600 of them now—left Keilah and began roaming the countryside. Word soon reached Saul that David had escaped, so he didn’t go to Keilah after all. David now stayed in the strongholds of the wilderness and in the hill country of Ziph. Saul hunted him day after day, but God didn’t let Saul find him.

You can Count on God when you can’t count on Anyone Else!
(Read 1 Samuel 23:1-12)
This morning we continue our series “Grace that is Simply Amazing.” While David was in Judah he received word that the Philistines were at Keilah stealing grain from the threshing floors and basically terrorizing the Israelites there. David asked the LORD, “Should I go and attack them?” It’s obvious that this time on the run had forced David to build a heavy dependency on the Lord.

(Read 1 Samuel 21:7-14)
