and they did not kill anyone but carried them away and they went their way so david and his men came to the city and there was burned with fire their wives and their sons and their daughters had been taken captive then david and the people who were with him lifted up their voices and wept until they had no more power to weep and david and his two wives ahenan the jesuit abigail the widow of nebar the camelites had been taken captive now david was greatly distressed for the people spoke of stoning him because of the souls of all the people that was greed every man and his sons and daughters but david strengthened himself in the lord god and david said to ebitda priest imalax son please bring the epob here to me and abithathar brought the ephob to david so david inquired of the lord saying

gotta preach for just maybe i'll abbreviate it a little bit y'all supposed to say no take your time [Applause] open your bibles to first samuel chapter eight i want to talk to you about david first samuel chapter 30 i'm sorry chapter 30. i don't know why i said chapter 8 but chapter 30 first samuel if you have your bibles turn there and hold there hold it there for a moment i'm going to walk you through this story about david i want to talk about david david fascinates me i'm fascinated by david i'm just fascinated by his journey his life so many things that i've learned about life from david i learned as i watched david get rejected on multiple occasions i learned through his life that rejection is a sign that god has a special assignment on your life [Applause] he got rejected by his father rejected by the king rejected by his wife rejected by rejects he had a series of rejects and rejection means that i learned that i learned that god can use a person even though they are jacked up jokers david was a jacked up joker he had he had done some horrible things in the course of his life and yet i'm amazed that when the bible gives us commentary about him it says that he was a man after god's own heart fascinated by that i'm fascinated fascinated by and i'm fascinated that this journey of david's began uh when he was a teenager at the age of 17 17 years of age david did something unbelievable he was given the assignment by his father of going down to the battlefield where his brothers who were in the army where the army of the lord were in battle against the philistines and at this particular battle on this particular day of the battle they were battling against the philistines so the instructions uh the challenge was that the philistines said instead of us using our weaponry against each other we'll send out our mighty warrior while israel you send out your mighty warrior and we let the two of them fight and whoever wins the other army and nation is in subjection to them i'm fascinated that david goes down to the battlefield to see how the battle is warring and to take some bread to his brothers and when he gets down there he is shocked to discover that there's no battle going on in fact there's a big giant goliath standing out in the middle of the field waiting for israel to send out their mighty warrior and instead of them sending out their mighty warrior the israelites are all hiding over in ditches because they're afraid they're scared they're scared to go out and do battle against or send somebody nobody is willing so david comes along and sees this scene and sees and observes that the army of the lord is hiding over the ditch and goliath the mighty warrior of the philistines is standing in the middle of the battlefield waiting for them to send somebody and when he hears what's going on he says how dare this listen to this here's what david said how did this uncircumcised philistines defy the armies of the living god i wish y'all knew the story i wouldn't have to tell you the whole story and he makes a determination he will go out he says i will go out and do battle i will go out and fight this uncircumcised philistine and so he in fact the scripture tells us the story goes on and tells us that he goes out takes his slingshot and a few stones and kills goliath with stones chops off his head with the sword and he's declared a great man david marches back into the city and the women have lined the streets and they have seen they are singing his praises the women are declaring that saul the king has killed thousands but david they said he's killed ten thousand get the picture he only killed one but they said he killed ten thousand they are shouting and and and celebrating david and king saul gets jealous gets mad gets upset and in his anger on multiple occasions he seeks to kill david with the king himself trying to kill him david runs escapes hides in an effort to save his life are y'all still with me he ends up running into a cave and in the cave are a bunch of rejects in the cave is some men who are in distress depressed and in debt and they asked david to be their leader and he becomes the leader of the group of rejects david is the first president of the joker's ministry [Applause] of which i am a member of the joker's ministry he's the chief joker but he he he transforms these men he does something spectacular with him he gets them jobs because they're in debt they are in distress just disappointed depressed all of that they got all that going on but they get he helps them get a job and they get a job by joining the philistine army can you get that can you picture that he joins and leads this men of rejects to join the army of the giant that he just killed he's joining the enemies camp that's like somebody who used to play for the washington football team now going to join the dallas cowboys it's just unfathomable it's um [Applause] it's unimaginable but that's what he's done he has joined this team of people are you with me he has joined this army and when they are here the philistine army are preparing again to go back into battle with the israelite army and the armies of the philistines are lined up and david and his group of rejects are in are in that group of philistine army and the general is inspecting his soldiers and he comes across these hebrew boys these jews and he said to them y'all can't fight with us y'all can't go into this battle cause y'all might switch up and change y'all might turn on us i'm sorry i'm gonna have to let y'all go so they get fired so now they head back home despondent because now they had a job but now they've been fired from their job anybody let me find out is anybody here ever been fired from a job let me i didn't ask the question right any of y'all are willing to confess that you got fired from a job but some of y'all lying some of you are not telling the truth so they head back to their camp they head back home and when they get back there when they get within visual distance they see that something's wrong something's not right and when they get there they see that the art their city has been burnt with fire it's been destroyed and when they get into the city of ziglag where they where they live when they get back home they discover that their wives and children have been taken captive the verse number three says that uh they came to the city and there was verse three there it was burned with fire and their wives their sons and their daughters had been taken captive verse four look at verse four it says then david and the people who were with him lifted up their voices and wept until they had no more power to weak they're crying because they've lost everything they've lost their homes they've lost their families and the bible says they wept until they had no more power to weak no more tears to cry it is a devastating moment i wanted to talk to you today because i feel that there's some people in here today that are like david they've lost some things stuff has been destroyed you troubled by your circumstances you're frustrated by how life has treated you and you have been crying i know you don't want to confess it among everybody that's here but just weak your eye at me i know that there's some people that life hasn't treated you fairly you feel like life has stolen from you and stuff has happened to you some of you have even questioned god whether or not god really loves you does he care about you why and how could god allow this to happen to you why did god let this happen why did god let that happen why did you have to go through this and against that i have a word for you today thank all 17 of y'all for that encouraging word to me today david and his men are in a frustrating situation they matter of fact they they i i'm finding that these men these guys are in such distress so so bothered that the bible says right here uh in verse number six that david was greatly distressed david himself was distressed why would god allow me to be in this situation can i say something to y'all real quick let me just throw this in for free some of y'all are frustrated about how life has treated you but i think it's important for me to let you know that if whatever comes in your life if god permits it to come into your life he will allow it don't clap wait till i finish then clap real loud say real amen but let me finish the point if god allows it to come in your life it's because he knows he's already equipped you to be able to handle whatever you're going for some of y'all didn't get that some of y'all missed a great spot to say amen god never allows you to go through a situation that he has not already prayer prior to prepared you to handle so you have to give god thanks you know you know what i've learned to do with life whatever comes down to pike i said god praise your name i don't know how i'm going to get out of this i don't know how this is going to work but i know somehow or another you're gonna work it out and i've learned to go ahead and give him a shout and give him a praise and give a celebration to him because i know he's already prepared me put in me equipped me anointed me empowered me and gifted me gone and preached pastor he's already given me enough to be able to take a licking and keep on kicking he's already put enough in me for me to sustain myself and come out a winner on the other side can i get an amen all things do work together for good to those who love the lord to those who are the called according to his purpose he's already worked it out and so he has allowed he has put them in a situation in the circumstance he's already uh given to you and i the ability to be able to do that but these he's distressed because the scripture says right here in verse number six it says the people spoke of stoning him because they're talking among themselves about killing him they're saying you brought us here you put us in this situation can i stick a pen right here and say something too don't ever blame anybody else for your circumstance amen don't don't get upset god is sovereign and he will never allow you to go in a situation that he as i've already said that he's not he hasn't already prepared you for we want to blame people see let me talk to some people who all want to always want to blame somebody else for what your circumstances might be some of the drama you in you caused it yourself one two three four five six the people spoke of stoning him god bless you bro thank you appreciate it i got one witness somewhere up in the camp give him a shout give him a hand they upset their man and look at what verse six says it says they they were greed it says that um for the people spoke of stoning him because the soul of all the people was grieved every man for his sons and daughters i'm shocked that they didn't say nothing about they would grieve about their wives [Applause] i'm just saying what do you do when life is handing you and passing on to you challenges that you don't feel you should have to go through how do you handle when nothing's going right what do you do when it seems like everything's going wrong and everything's backwards and you don't have enough money to pay your bills and sickness is wrecking your body from from from from the top of your head to the sole of your feet what do you do when your job is not working right and you can't find a job what do you do when everything's going backwards who am i preaching to today what do you do what do you say when you take the test but you can't pass the test what do you do when you try to get a promotion but you can't get the promotion preach master what do you do when nothing seems to be going right i'm preaching to somebody here today who's frustrated with life who's discouraged with life i'm coming to preach to somebody who don't know which way to turn or what to do or where to go or what to say when nothing seems to be going your way i don't know who i'm preaching to i know i'm talking to you because you can't say nothing you're looking at me quiet it's all right i got a word from you somebody said what do you have to say i got a word for you the word is what david did in his most depressing distressing distraught situation he was greatly distressed but here's what the scripture says but david strengthened himself in the lord his god what did david do when everything was going wrong and nothing's going right and everything's backwards the bible says david strengthened himself that's the hebrew word strengthening what does it mean the word shazak the word strengthened means that you're in a place or a posture to strengthen yourself to repair yourself to make yourself strong every now and then you got to learn how to encourage yourself i don't know who i'm preaching to today but i'm that's that's i got just a one point message i got a one thing to say to you today this is one declaration one thing i'm trying to tell you to do when life seems to be giving you bad and stuff nothing's going your way and you are frustrated and upset and if you haven't got there keep living i promise you you will get there sooner or later when it seems like nothing's falling in the way you want it to fall david strengthened himself in the lord his god he learned to encourage himself and here's what that means encourage yourself means to talk to yourself [Applause] see some of y'all's problem is you talking to the wrong people [Applause] you talking to people who are all telling you the wrong stuff and the wrong things and who are making the wrong suggestions when job when job i wish i knew the bible when job had all of his challenges and his troubles three of his friends came and talked to him and they all of them said the wrong stuff to him they said job you're going through all of this hell because you didn't sinned against god and you need to repent and god will turn it around how many of y'all know god don't punish you for your sins because you would have been in hell a long time ago i wish i had somebody somebody ought to thank god that he didn't punish you for what the stuff you did and the places you went and the things you have done somebody ought to give god thanks he has not rewarded you according to your iniquities they talked to job but
