Inside Edition

The Inside Edition was one of television's longest running, top-rated, and most-honored syndicated news magazine. However, long before Inside Edition, God always has had a way of causing the atrocities’ of his people to work out for their good, by providing them with advantages.

 

 Let’s go peak over into the camp of David. 

1 Sam 30 David and his men were all out to battle and left their wives and children unprotected. The enemy came in and took them captive and took all the spoils from them and burned their land.  David and all the men wept and were sore grieved that they spoke off stoning David, their King.  The bible says David encouraged himself and he sought God, whether he should pursue their enemies.  Not only did God tell him to pursue them, he let him know he would overtake them and recovery all.

What situation are you facing that God is requiring you to encourage yourself? What has caused you to be so disheartened that   you feel as though can never be recovered or restored? It looked bad, it felt bad and it was bad but he had a word from God.  David took the men with him that were strong enough to fight, without even a clear battle strategy; he headed out on his way.  God will provide a strategy as we step out in faith to obey him.

 

Let’s check out David’s inside edition.

 

13 And David said unto him, to whom do you belong? And where are you from?  And he said, I am a young man of Egypt, servant to an Amalekite; and my master left me, because three days ago I fell sick.

14 We made an invasion upon the south of the Cherethites and upon the coast which belongs to Judah, and upon the south of Caleb; and we burned Ziklag with fire.

15 And David said to him, Canst thou bring me down to this company? And he said, Swear unto me by God, that thou wilt neither kill me, nor deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will bring thee down to this company.
