1st Samuel 21:12 And David laid up these words in his heart, and was sore afraid of Achish the king of Gath. 13 And he changed his behavior before them, and feigned himself mad in their hands, and scrabbled on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle fall down upon his beard.
The maxim persons often use, which declares that the end justifies the means is one of satanic origin, for it proposes that the tail wag the dog’s head, if nothing else can be done. There is always something else that can be done, and it is to be found in the scriptures, by which man must live.
It ought to be a settled decision in our minds as we move forward, that whatever the situation may be, and no matter how grave and urgent, we would tow the line of following God’s instructions, even at the times when we need to hear from Him urgently and it may seem as if He isn’t answering.
It took a while for God to answer Job, in a situation when Job was really searching for answers. Yet God permitted days on end to pass by, without saying a word. At such times God’s ways and methods seem unfathomable to mortal minds, yet He still remains The On-time God that He is.
Job 38:Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said, 2 Who is this that darkens counsel by words without knowledge? 3 Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
