One of the most remarkable men in all of history, and especially in Biblical history, was King David. God spoke of David as a “man after my own heart.” David sought after God, was obedient to God, spoke with God, was lead by God, and was appointed King of Israel by God. We have explored the relationship that developed between David and King Saul shortly after David defeated Goliath, winning a great victory for King Saul. The exploits and acclaim received by David worked destructively against King Saul who came to fear David as a rival and sought to kill him as a threat to his honor and his throne. David, not willing to oppose King Saul, or violate God's principals of authority, was forced to the only available alternative, that of fleeing from King Saul.
This session deals with a period in David's flight from Saul. Having twice encountered Saul in person and escaped, David now flees to the land of the Philistines and seeks long-term sanctuary in service with King Achish. Over sixteen months, David wins the trust of the King but providentially is kept from joining the Philistines in their next and pivotal battle with Judah, a battle in which King Saul and his son Jonathon are killed.
