David’s life (6)
1 Samuel 18:3 “because he loved him as his own soul”
When making choices about certain problems, we know that the side of the spirit is right. But at the critical moment, there are many times we stand on the side of the flesh. Some people choose in this way when they choose churches. They know what church has the gospel and is right, but they choose a church that fits their heart.
Most people do not hate David but love him. But the ones who stand on Saul’s side when making important decisions are Jonathan. People do not hate the will of the Lord; they love it. They may love following the word of God, but those who stand on the side of the flesh are Jonathan.
Decisions that are comfortable for your flesh look good at the time. But if you look at the end results, that is the way of destruction. Being on David’s side is wisdom.
