Never panic

“I shall now perish one day by the hand of Saul” - 1 Samuel 27:1

This was how David lamented when Saul was hunting him down. He fled to Israel’s enemies thinking he would be safe there as Saul was too afraid to attack them. David acted in panic and this led him to deeper trouble which could have be avoided if he had trusted in the Lord.

This is a lesson for us. Never panic, if we make the Lord our stronghold and take refuge in Him, He is faithful to protect and rescue us and will see us through any trouble however insurmountable it may seem.
