Called According To His Purpose.

1 Sam 19:18-24(from THE MESSAGE)

David made good his escape and went to Samuel at Ramah and told him everything Saul had done to him. Then he and Samuel withdrew to the privacy of Naioth.

Saul was told, "David's at Naioth in Ramah." He immediately sent his men to capture him. They saw a band of prophets prophesying with Samuel presiding over them. Before they knew it, the Spirit of God was on them, too, and they were ranting and raving right along with the prophets!

That was reported back to Saul, and he dispatched more men. They, too, were soon prophesying. So Saul tried a third time — a third set of men — and they ended up mindlessly raving as well!

Fed up, Saul went to Ramah himself. He came to the big cistern at Secu and inquired, "Where are Samuel and David?"

A bystander said, "Over at Naioth in Ramah."

As he headed out for Naioth in Ramah, the Spirit of God was on him, too. All the way to Naioth he was caught up in a babbling trance! He ripped off his clothes and lay there rambling gibberish before Samuel for a day and a night, stretched out naked. People are still talking about it: "Saul among the prophets! Who would have guessed?"


There was a call on Davids life for sure, the favor of the Lord was upon him. God had big plans for him and kept him protected from Saul even to the point of overtaking his enemy and seemingly making him one of the good guys for a period of time.
When we are in Gods will, continuing to seek Gods wisdom and favor in all we do and walking out the destiny He has planned for us than heaven and earth will be moved to see that plan to its completion. God has the ability to change what He wants or who He wants, when He wants.
Is God that big in your world? Or do you get stuck in your defeat thinking not even God can help you out. The right perspective could change your whole journey

Rom 8:28-29 (NIV)

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
