“And David was greatly distressed; for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the Lord his God.” 1 Samuel 30:6 — His enemy, the Amalekites, came in behind David and had taken the women and sons and burned David’s city of Ziklag down to the ground! Sometimes we may face a temporary defeat in our lives. You may be facing one today. Do what David did. Encourage yourself in the Lord! After the crying was over David chased the enemy down and without fail recovered all! Bobby
