Life is a battle field….. AND…. Counsel is of the LORD

⁶ For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellors there is safety.

Proverbs 24:6 King James Version (KJV)

David was called up to be a musician to King Saul, and his resume was of one that was able to war, his job was just to play music to the King to help him drive away an evil spirit (1 Samuel 16:14), you probably would think, that you do not need someone who can go to war to be able to make music….

¹⁷ And Saul said unto his servants, Provide me now a man that can play well, and bring him to me. ¹⁸ Then answered one of the servants, and said, Behold, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, that is cunning in playing, and a mighty valiant man, and a man of war, and prudent in matters, and a comely person, and the Lord is with him.

1 Samuel 16:18 King James Version (KJV)

In a the wilderness of training, David sent out to take care for sheep of the family, while others were at home, GOD made a man out of HIM….

¹⁴ But now thy kingdom shall not continue: the Lord hath sought him a man after his own heart, and the Lord hath commanded him to be captain over his people, because thou hast not kept that which the Lord commanded thee.

1 Samuel 13:14 King James Version (KJV)
