David Playing on the Harp Before Saul

DAVID was one that, feared God, and God was going to honor him, and put him on the throne instead of Saul who was disobedient to Him. After he disobeyed, God sent an evil spirit upon him, and when David played the harp before him, Saul one day cast a javelin at David; but David escaped (1 Sam. 18: 10, 11).
How many times when the Lord Jesus was here upon earth, people tried to take Him and to stone Him and kill Him, but He always escaped out of their hands, till His time came for Him to go to the cross and then He gave Himself up to them, and allowed them to show out all the wickedness of their hearts. And now that Christ has gone through death, and is in the glory, still people show out their hatred to Him by desiring other things rather than Him.
Which side are you on? Do you, dear reader, take part with those who do not want Jesus? Or do you say,
“I love Him, because He first loved me?”
Saul is a picture of the unsaved people in all their hatred to the Lord Jesus, and God’s judgment will surely come upon them. God will have all to honor the Son, and if they do not honor Him now, they will have to honor Him later. But it will then be too late for their salvation.
“AT THE NAME OF JESUS EVERY KNEE SHOULD BOW, OF THINGS I N HEAVEN, AND THINGS IN EARTH, AND THINGS UNDER THE EARTH; AND THAT EVERY TONGUE SHOULD CONFESS THAT JESUS CHRIST IS LORD, TO THE GLORY OF GOD THE FATHER.” Phil. 2:10, 1110That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Philippians 2:10‑11).
