1 Samuel 18 - His Heart Is Not With You - Midweek Prayer Meeting
Proverbs 23:7 says, “For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.” As Solomon penned this advice to his son, I wonder if the stories that he had heard of his own father’s relationships with Saul and Jonathan came to mind. After the defeat of Goliath, Saul did everything that he could to make David an ally under his control, but Saul’s intentions were sinister. His mouth did not match his mind and heart. In this chapter of Samuel, David becomes forms close friendship with Jonathan (which we will explore later), but Saul grows increasingly fearful, jealous, and hating of David. The discrepancy between Saul’s mouth and thoughts should serve as a warning our own double-mindedness.
