In this sermon from 1 Samuel 24, we see King David spared Saul’s life when he had the opportunity for revenge. In doing so he overcame evil with good, demonstrated his fear of God, and his trust in God to fulfill His plans for him and bring about vengeance in due time. David's story and psalms teach some helpful lessons: 1. David Teaches Us How To Respond To Our Adversaries: With Mercy- V7,10 2. David Teaches Us To Respect Authority V6-8 3. David Teaches Us How to Handle the Temptation to Get Revenge; Wait for God- Psalm 37:1-11,34 4. David Teaches Us To Fear God; Keep A Clear Conscience & Do Good- V4-6, Psalm 34:11-16 5. David Teaches Us To Trust God’s Sovereignty In Fulfilling Our Purpose- V12, Psalm 57:2-3 6. David Teaches Us About Healthy Confrontation With Saul - V8-15
