Why did David's followers choose to align with him?

Answered in 1 source

David's followers chose to follow him due to his character and the hope he represented as God's anointed.

The men who followed David in 1 Samuel 22 were drawn to him not only out of necessity but also through admiration for his character and integrity. Despite being an outcast, David displayed qualities of a true leader, showcasing bravery and a heart for the afflicted. This attracted a band of loyal followers who were weary of Saul’s tyranny. Their choice to align with David demonstrates a spiritual principle where true followers of Christ find in Him the ultimate source of hope and leadership amidst a troubled world. This mirrors the call to believers to forsake the fleeting comforts of earthly leaders and to follow Christ, the true King.
