In the previous message in this series, David flees to Naioth from the murderous plot of Saul to assassinate him. In the process he loses his soul friend, his position of power and privilege, and his marriage. Now he will lose his spiritual mentor, Samuel. Saul continues his murderous pursuit of David, and misses the blessings of God as King. How will David recover his spiritual compass when God’s love seemed to contradict the painful circumstances of David’s life? David could not travel by day or night. He felt alone, afraid, and with little hope. Dr. Betters declares that when we lose all hope, we lose. How will David survive? This message on David’s struggle to regain his spiritual compass will encourage anyone who has experienced what seems like a hopeless situation, and especially those who are in that hopeless situation right now.
