The Holy Spirit and the Holy Bible

 So in 1 Samuel 22:17-23 King Saul had put 85 priests, their wives and children to death for siding with David.    Then in 2nd Samuel 1:14-16 David gets offended and kills the gracious soldier helping Saul end his misery saying “How is it you were not afraid to stretch out your hand to destroy the LORD’s anointed?”  (1 Chronicles 10)


King Saul was anointed at a moment in his journey, but surely he was NOT anointed in 1 Samuel 22.
King David was anointed along the journey, yet he dishonored Deuteronomy 17:17 by multiplying wives and concubines (2 Samuel 5:12-13) and if that wasn't enough, he had an affair with Bathsheba and had her husband Uriah murdered to cover his covetousness which is breaking the 10th Commandment - Thou shall NOT covet.  Then towards the end of David's life he writes a song of deliverance and victory to the LORD and included the following two verses... 

2nd Samuel 22:22-23
I have obeyed the law of the LORD; I have not turned away from my God.
I have observed all his laws; I have not disobeyed his commands.

In closing,
Nothing makes sense.  Nothing adds up.
Yet, what does add up is the Holy Spirit has called us to this wonderful Holy Bible to know Jesus Christ our Savior.  To know God's powerful principles on charity and generosity and feel the warmth of His love that is better than any high.  God works with brokenness, imperfection folks who are at the end of themselves so they rise higher than ever before (Matthew 10:39, 16:25, John 12:25, 1 Corinthians 1:26-30).  The Holy Bible doesn't cover up the errors of any, so rejoice, we're all in good company to strive for a better day tomorrow.

Take time and discover the Power of His healing presence. The Power of the Blood of Jesus.

Luke 6:37
Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.
