King Jesus the Covenant sealed

1 Samuel Ch 25 v 33: Blessed be your discretion, and blessed be you, who have kept me this day from bloodguilt and from working salvation with my own hands.

Prior to this encounter, David has spared Saul life.

Saul response to this, is again to yield to the ministry of prophesy, as he had when he first came looking for David to do him harm. If Samuel had had any doubts concerning anointing David to be the next King, it was affirmed to him, when Saul could not but prophesy, the Lord revealing his sovereign will, that it shall be done.

In response to the revelation of Davids heart and the purpose of his anointing, Saul confesses an inward knowledge of the Spirit of liberty, and its goodness: And now, behold, I know that you shall surely be king, and that the kingdom of Israel shall be established in your hand.

David swore to Saul according to his request concerning his offspring.

This is a key turning point in the narrative. David is now firmly established and set on a course distinct and separate from Saul. He is a known entity with his men entering a stronghold, speaking into Gods intentions for him and the nations, to be a light for all to see.

Samuel then dies! Incredible, but the economies of Gods inspired word, does not want us focusing on all that Samuel was as a man, rather his death is simply woven into the great tapestry of prophetic purposes. Samuel dies to the glory of God. 

Perhaps in measure his dying prayer, Samuels, had been a akin to Stephens, the Lord having such grace upon Saul, that the greater ministry of the Spirit that came upon the Pharisee Saul, is seen in kind with this momentary ministry of reconciliation.

Samuel dying, meant David could no longer run unto him. It was also a fixed point of reference in his life, the Prophet who had anointed him to be king.

Here we see that David is tempted like never before, established and on course in his stronghold with his men, and yet he is threatened and shown to be insecure by a worthless man, called Nabal.

How is it possible that David lacked the spiritual maturity, and patience to stay his course, despite this stubborn insulting man. How touchy David was at this juncture

And here time Lord shows his baton being passed, one that does not cut what can be untied.

Abigail, David concedes has been the Word of God and voice of the Spirit to him. She has been the prophetic voice and ministry that, yes even the anointed king needed in his life and journey.

Saul knew the kingdom would be establish through Davids hands, but it was imperative that that was through giving all things into the Fathers hands.

1 Samuel Ch 5 & 6.

Ch 6 v6: Why should you harden your hearts as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their hearts? After he had dealt severely with them, did they not send the people away, and they departed?

The ark stopping at a place dedicated to the priesthood, where the offering unto the living God would and was made, speaking not only unto the circumcised of an atoning sacrifice but the uncircumcised too.

The Philistines knew deep down as King Saul did too. 

When Jonathan won his half acre the resurrection power of are Lord shook the very gates of hell foundations, that was never made for man.

When the enemy comes in as a flood, the Spirit of the Lord is victorious. 

When the man born King of the Jews, cried: ‘Father into your hands I commit my Spirit’, the destiny of Israel was sealed, and that is a blessing unto every nation and family of the whole earth and don’t allow yourself to be influenced and deceived by any opposing uncircumcised false narrative. Shall not the judge of the earth do right, shall not the God of Israel show himself faithful to his own promises.

JESUS is Lord of Lords and King of Kings, his kingdom is never ever unto threat. But are we able to hear the prophetic ministry: God shall provide himself a sacrifice, born King of the Jews, the New Testament Joshua, who opens the gates of heaven so that all may come in.

Worship God! Father into your hands I commit all things, I will not take matters into my own.

Abigail represents the Church and are function unto one and another, to admonish one another in love, to walk in the Spirit and not in the flesh.
