who are you afraid of?

1 Samuel 10:6, The Spirit of the Lord will come upon you in power, and you will prophesy with them; and you will be changed into a different person.

1 samuel 10:22b; he (Saul) has hidden himself among the baggage.

1 samuel 15:24b; I was afraid of the people and so I gave in to them.

1 samuel 18:12, Saul was afraid of David, because the Lord was with David but had left Saul.

1 samuel 18:28, when Saul realized that the Lord was with David and that his daughter Michal loved David, 29Saul became still more afraid of him…


Saul was afraid of people, afraid of David, afraid of man.

David was afraid of God.


I think we all know what's the ending of their lives.

Hi Sharon.

Good write up.

Salutation to Paul. He who have faith in GOD even in the midst of persecution and accusation from the people around him.

Therefore, if in our life all this happens, remember the grace of GOD that uphold Paul. Glory to Lord!
