Well, look here with me. 1 Samuel 22. David had been dwelling in a
cave, and his father and his mother and his brothers come
down to be with him. And everyone, you know we dealt
with that last week. They heard, got to hear. They heard of David. We've heard
of Christ. We come to Him. And everyone
that was in distress, everyone that was in debt, and everyone
that was discontented gathered themselves, and this is what
I like, unto Him. Unto Him. And so David is going
to go back to Judah. He's leaving the cave and he's
going to go back to Judah. Bethlehem is in Judah. He's of
the tribe of Judah. Paul said he was of the tribe
of Benjamin. Our Lord Jesus Christ was of
the tribe of Judah. So here we go. The first thing
I want you to notice is that David honors his father and his
mother. Look in verse 3 and 4. First thing David did, you know,
his father's house went down to him and David went then to
Mishpah of Moab and he said unto the king of Moab, let my father
and my mother, I pray thee come forth and be with you till I
know what God will do for me. And he brought them before the
king of Moab and they dwelt with him. And all the while that was
David was in the hole. David honored his father and
his mother. His whole family came to him. And the reason they
came to him was because it wasn't safe in the land. You know, Saul
would just as soon hurt his family as hurt him. Destroy his brothers,
destroy his mother, his father. And they'd been dwelling with
him down there when he was in that cave. And their home was
in Bethlehem of Judah. That's where they was from. That's
where Christ was born, in Bethlehem. And I'll tell you, David didn't
want his parents to suffer didn't want them to suffer hardship,
didn't want them to suffer and wonderings about with Him. And
you know that's what our Lord Jesus Christ was about His mother.
When our Lord as they were standing, two Marys, Three Marys and John
and some, and I can't think of the other person, they're standing
around the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. And our Lord Jesus
looked at his mother and says, mother, behold your son, talking
about John. And he said, John, behold your
mother. And so from that day on, our
Lord thought of his own mother in his dying hour, that someone
would love her and care for her and take care of her and keep
her until the Lord called her home. And here there was no safe
place. There was no safe place in the
land as long as Saul hated and pursued David. So that's why
they all came to him because they know that and that's the
only safe place for us is in the Lord Jesus Christ. That's
why we gather unto him. I'll tell you what, I've often
said this, if there's one just a tiny part of me outside of
Christ, just as sure as God's on His throne, the devil would
get it. But I won't, you know, you priest don't clothed in Christ.
Clothed in Christ, buried in Christ, smirched in Christ. That's the safest place, the
best place to be is in Christ, in God. Nobody can get you. And the only one that is going
to come and get you is going to be God himself and Christ
himself. I heard a fellow say one time,
the safest place to hide from God is in God. Yes. And why did David ask and trust
the Moabites to give his parents asylum? Why did he do that? You know, you remember the story
of the Moabites. Lot was the father of the Moabites
with his daughters. And Saul had warred against these
Moabites. Now let me tell you about Ruth.
Look back, Ruth is the book right before Samuel. Ruth is that little
book right before Samuel. You all know the story of Ruth.
How that a certain man of Ramoth, Mount Ephraim, he went down into
Moab. Right here before 1 Samuel, the book of Ruth, four little
chapters. They went down and she got married. He died and
their sons died. She had these two widows that
was with her. And look what it says down here
in verse 114. Well, I said, excuse me, I'm
sorry. Yeah, 114. No, wait. I'm in Samuel. Good grief, I'm not in Ruth.
I keep going over there. I keep, I've done that today.
Here we go. All right. Verse 14 of chapter
one of Ruth. And they lifted up their voice
and wept again, and Orpah kissed her mother-in-law, and Ruth claimed
unto her that she sent them all back to where they come from,
back up in Moab. And Ruth claimed to her, claimed
to her, said, I'm going to stay right where you are. And she
said, behold, thy sister-in-law is going back under her people
and under her gods. Return thou after thy sister-in-law.
And Ruth said, entreat me not. Don't be against me. Don't be
against me. Don't cause me to leave you or
return from falling after you. Whether you go, I'll go. Whether
thou lodgest, I'll lodge. And thy people shall be my people.
And were you die, I'll die, and more also if death part me in
thee. And when she saw that she was
steadfastly minded to go with her, then she left off speaking
to her. Yeah, you know who Ruth was?
Ruth was Jesse David's great-grandmother. Now look over here in chapter
four. This is why he went down there. This is why he went down
there. Oh my. In verse 17, the woman and the
women her neighbors gave it a name. You know, when Ruth had her baby,
had her little boy, and there's a son born to Naomi, and they
called his name Obed. He is the father of Jesse, the
father of David. That's why Saul called him the
son of Jesse, the son of Jesse, the son of Jesse. And oh my,
Ruth, Ruth was David's great-grandmother. And it says in verse 21, And
Salmon begat Boaz, and Boaz begat Obed, Obed begat Jesse, and Jesse
begat David. That's why he went down there.
There's his kinfolks. They were people he could trust
them with. He knew these people down there. And so he took his
mother and father to a place where they'd be well, well cared
for. And then look what it said back up there in verse three.
This is an astounding statement to me. And the last part of the
verse, he says, I pray thee, let my father, my mother, I pray
thee come forth and be with you. Now listen to this, till I know
what God will do for me. I want you to notice he didn't
say what I'm going to do for God. He said I'm going to wait
and see what God will do with me. I'm in His hands. I'm in
His will. I'm His servant. I've been called
of Him, anointed of Him. I'm His. I belong to Him. And
I don't know what He'll do with me. He may put me on the throne. He may put me in the dust. I
know one thing. He left me in a cave for a long
time. And I know one thing. He's letting a king come after
me. And I know this. He said, I don't know. I've got
to wait and see what God will do for me. And you know what
he's doing? He's saying, what he's saying
is, I submit to the will of God, whatever it may be. Now that's
a hard, you know, people, we all, all of us, we all nod our
head and say, yes, yes, yes, He wants to submit to the will
of God. We want to kiss the hand of God's
providence. We'd like to be like Eli. When Samuel told Eli, God said
He's going to kill you two sons. And you know what Eli said? It's
the Lord. Let Him do what seems good unto
Him. Never said a word about it. And
I tell you, Billy, submitting to the Lord's will, it takes
a long time. You got to go to the school of
experience a few times before you really know what it is to
submit to the will of God. You got to be in God's school,
not the school of, you know, when God puts you in school,
And God begins to deal with you and teach you. One thing He'll
teach you is that I am God. And whether you like it or not,
my will is going to be done. So you just as well kiss my hand
and say, thank you, Lord, and bless your holy name. We can
read about it in books. But it's only as God hammers
it, hammers it, hammers it, hammers it, and hammers it into our brains
and hearts and souls that we can say, Lord, what will thou
do? And then when he says, this is
what I'm going to do, and we know when the end of the day,
we know what he's done. I was praying and said, I'll
tell you what, I was in such pain, I didn't want to live in
the condition I was in. Go on, be with Christ. And I tell you, beloved, David
knows what it is to wait upon the Lord. Do you know what he
said? Be still. Be still. Be quiet. Be restful. Be peaceful. And know that I
am God. I tell you, I wouldn't have it
no other way, would you? It took me a little, you know,
I don't know that I'm there yet, but I'll be there one of these
days. I do know that. When he said, Lord, not my will
be done, but thine, one of these days I'll be able to say that
from the depth of my heart and soul. And one of these days,
when I get to glory, I'll really know what it is for his will
to be done in heaven. Oh, and David was learning. And I tell you, look over here
at Psalm 42 with me. Psalm 42. Look what David said
about some things over here. And we've all been here. We've
all been here before. In Psalm 42. All of us has been
there. I've been there, and I know that
I've been there, and some of you have been there, and we'll
be there again. Psalm 42, look what he says here
in verse 5. Why art thou cast down, O my
soul? Why are you bowed down? Why are you so heavy of heart?
Why are you so heavy? And why, O my soul, why are you
disquieted in me? I'm troubled, troubled, troubled.
And listen to what he said. Hope thou in God. And look what
he said. I don't care what's going on.
I'm going to yet praise him for the help of his countenance.
When my soul is disquiet, and I'm bowed down, I'm gonna, by
hope, I'm gonna hope in Him, and I'm gonna praise Him, for
the help, what He said, of His countenance, Him looking at me,
seeing me. Look what He said in verse 6. Oh God, my soul is cast down
within me, therefore will I remember Thee, from the land of Jordan,
of the hill of the Hermonites, and from the hill of Mizar, And
look what he says down in verse 11. Why art thou cast down, O
my soul? You ever ask yourself this kind
of question when you get really down? Just get up one day and
you don't know what in the world is going on. You just get up
and you're just down. You're just down. You just go
down trodden in your heart. Why art thou cast down, O my
soul? What's the matter with you? Why
art thou disquieted within me? And he tells his soul this, hope
thou in God, for I shall yet praise him who is the health
of my countenance and my God. I'll wait and know what God will
do for me. That's a million miles from what
religion thinks. Oh, it's what I do for God. No. The first time I heard anybody
say this, and Scott Richardson said, it's not what you do for
God, it's what God does for you. And when people learn that, it's
what God has to do for them. You know what they'll do? They'll
just sit still, and they'll rejoice, and they'll be thankful, and
they'll bless the name of the Lord. Alright, look what it says
here now in verse 5. There's a prophet. Here's the
first time we've heard of a prophet going to David. And this is the
first time his name is ever mentioned, only mentioned one other time
in the scriptures. And the prophet Gad said unto David, Abide not
in the hole, depart and get thee into the land of Judah. Then
David departed and came into the forest of Herod. And David
obeys God's prophet. When God sent a prophet to him,
told him what to do, David said, okay, all right, I'll not argue
with you. I'll not debate with you. God,
he said, what God will do with me? He said, first thing you're
going to do with him, we'll send you back to Judah. going to send
you back home. And the prophecy would go into
Judah. And what God was doing, David
is such a type of Christ, what God was doing, He has gathered
the excellent of the earth under David. And who is the type of
the Lord Jesus Christ in His rejection. And oh, He was hated,
despised, and rejected, and yet God has gathered all all the
people under him. David, all those that was mistreated,
all those who were distressed and dead and in need, all of
them was gathered under David. The excellent of the earth was
being thrown under David. And here we have a prophet, we
have a priest, and we have a king. And David's the king, Gad's the
prophet, and Abiathar, you know, escaped. And he went over to
David's. And so he had every, all three
of the offices were there. And that's the way our master.
Our Lord Jesus Christ first is a prophet. He come to tell us
of God, to tell us the will of God, reveal to us the word of
God, make us to understand God. We couldn't understand God apart
from Christ. We wouldn't know anything about
God apart from Christ. And so He's a prophet, and then
He's a priest. Our Lord Jesus Christ is the
high priest, made forever after the order of Melchizedek. And
not only is He the priest, But he's the sacrifice and the priest
who offered it and it was his altar. He was the altar on which
that sacrifice was offered and he was the God who accepted it.
Now you explain that to me. But that's right. He is our altar,
is that not right? Was he not our sacrifice? Was
he not the high priest who offered it? Did he not prepare himself
a body? And then these fellas put on
these robes and run around dressed like a woman and wanted to be
called father. And they gave Barry the children. Oh my goodness. And God honors and blesses these
offices. He blessed David to be king.
He blessed Gad to be a prophet. and he blessed Abiathar who was
preserved and took the ephod and the urim and the thummet
and here David comes and like our master he is confronted with
a real test of faith to return unto the country and be out in
the open and go back into the country where he was hated and
hunted and all the enemies are after him And ain't that the
way it was with our master? His own disciples said to him,
his brethren said to him one time. He said, if you do these
things, everybody that does anything wants to be seen of men. They
said, we understand that. They said, why don't you go on
up to Jerusalem and do all these wonderful things up there and
let everybody know who you really are. If you see who you say you
are. And our Lord Jesus went up later
and calls, you know why? You know how many times they
tried to take him? And he wouldn't return unto Judah
again. Why? Because he's hated there. And
he knows what would happen there. But how many times did our Lord
move in and out among his enemies? How many times would somebody
lay wait for him? And the Apostle Paul, how many
times did he lay wait for him? And he always, God always saved
him. They come to make him king, he
just went away. They come to take him one time,
they couldn't because they got to listen to him preach, and
they was mesmerized. The Jews, they got together one
time and said, oh, let's just get a bunch and go after him.
Oh, but he was afraid of the people. Afraid of the people. And our Lord moved among his
enemies, and I'll tell you something else he does right now. I do know this. He makes even his enemies to
be at peace with him. And that's evidenced by lots
of us. Ain't that right? Yeah, he makes his enemy. I was
an enemy. I don't know if you was or not,
but I was an enemy. I remember as a very young man,
I had been out back from overseas very long. And then I remember,
I thought, well, he's probably a good man. He's probably a prophet.
Probably has some wonderful qualities about him. But I didn't think
no more of Jesus Christ than I did anybody else. I didn't. And here I tell you what, when
I was an enemy, what did He do? He made me to be at peace with
Him. You know, make you peace with
God, I couldn't do it. But He did. He made peace in
my heart, slew the enmity, made peace in my understanding, made
peace in my conscience, and He brought peace to between me and
God. He has to bring peace. Now I
tell you what, it's a wonderful, wonderful, glorious God and Christ
and Savior who would take His enemies Take his enemies and
say, I'm going to make you at peace with me. I'm going to make
you love me and like me and like to be around me. Oh my. And I tell you what, I'm
certainly thankful he did that. And look what David hears, Saul
hears now. Oh my, look what Saul. This is
what they, this is how our Lord Jesus Christ was. They hated
him so much. Down here in verse 6, when Saul
heard that David was discovered, and the men that were with him,
they found out David's back into Judah now. He's not in that cave
anymore. Now Saul abode in Gibeah, sitting
under a big tree down there, having his spear in his hand,
sitting there with a big spear in his hand. All of his servants
standing around him. Bunch of men standing around
him. Well, he's going to show what a wicked, despicable creature
he is. Then Saul said unto his servants
that stood about him, Here now, you Benjamites, will the son
of Jesse give every one of you fields and vineyards and make
you captains of thousands, captains of hundreds? what he's saying
to us, will David be able to do for you what I've done for
you? Will David be able to make you wealthy? Will David be able,
has he got enough men to make you to be a captain over a hundred?
Or captains over thousands? What can David do for you? What
can David do for you? What in the world, listen, can
David do these things for you that I've done for you? Well,
he's supposed to find out. But I tell you what, I want you
to notice here, he never mentioned God. Never mentioned God. Never mentioned God. He had no
regard for God's glory, God's honor. Only thing he was interested
in was himself. You're talking about somebody
like our generation only thought of himself. What he's saying,
you won't get any rewards or you won't have any prominent
positions if David becomes king. You won't have nothing like I've
done for you. And oh my. And then look what
he does. That's the first lie Satan told.
You'll be as God's. You won't need God anymore. Oh my. Then he charges his followers
with conspiracy. Look here in verse 8, that all
of you have conspired against me. You know, if there's somebody
like that around today, you know what you'd call them? Paranoid. Paranoid. Boy, that guy's got
problems. That's the first thing you say.
If I come in here and said, all y'all conspired against me, you
know what you'd do? You'd call the doctors. But here he comes in and he says,
all of you, all of you have conspired against me, not just one or two
of you, all of you. And there's none of you that
showed me that my son had joined up and had a covenant with David.
Oh, they didn't tell me about that covenant that God made that
David and Jonathan made together, and how they loved one another,
and how David protected, Jonathan protected David against his father.
He said, you had none of you told me that. And listen to this,
and there's none of you that's sorry for me. Oh. Oh, nobody feels sorry for me. This
is a girl, this is a king. This is a grown man. This is
a king. And these are his followers.
These are his servants. And he said, you all conspired
against me. You didn't tell me about David
and Jonathan and the great love that they had and the kind that
they entered in together. And none of you are sorry for
me. I'll tell you, they'd take a
fellow like that and put him away if he lived. It needs to
be. needs to be. Oh my, self-pity. That's one of the most miserable
things in the world, is somebody to pity themselves. And after
a believer, it's just unbelievable that a believer would have self-pity. I just, you know, to have self-pity. Why does this happen to me? I
just, nobody seems to think about me. Nobody seems to be sorry
for me. Nobody seems to even care what
I do, what I think, what I feel, anything like that. That's self-pity.
We don't want, listen, what have we got to pity ourselves about? I'll tell you one thing, I do
know that God said that we are pitiful and that God looks on
the pitiful. I'll be pitiful before Him, but
I won't be no pity before myself. Would you? What do we got to
be self-pityed about? Oh, people just don't think about
me. But I tell you, his heart was
evil. His heart was full of jealousy. And you know what the Bible says
about jealousy? Jealousy is crueler than a grave. Jealousy, the grave will come
and take somebody that you love and that you care for and it
will not give it back. You cannot get them back out
of that grave. You can't get them back. And
he says jealousy is worse than that. Jealousy wants to take
your character. Jealousy wants to take your home. Jealousy wants to take your name. Jealousy, if it had its way,
would kill you and destroy everything about you and leave you with
nothing and then rejoice over you being brought to nothing.
That's how cruel jealousy is. Jealousy will not let anybody
have rest. It's malice. Jealousy is like
malice. I just can't stand it. I just can't stand that they're
having this. I can't stand that he's got that.
And oh my. And I tell you here, his friends,
his friends, his servants, he treated them like enemies. And
you know why? I tell you, a person like this
thinks everybody's just like him. I'm this way, that's where everybody
else is. And that's what he thinks. That
was his mistake. And oh my. And he charges John
falsely. Now look what happens down here.
Oh my. You remember our Lord Jesus Christ. They charged his followers. They
said they're like Samaritans. They're winebibbers, they're
drunkards, they're publicans, they're sinners. What an awful
thing that a sinner would come to Christ. That's what they charged
him with. That's what they charged him
with. But now look what happens. Nobody
saw it for me and they saw my son stirred up David against
me to lie in wait for me this day. So he accused his son of
helping David to lie in wait for him. which was set over the surface
of Saul said I saw the son of Jesse coming to Nob to Ahimelech
the son of Ahiathim and he inquired of the Lord for him and gave
him victuals and gave him the sword of Goliath now I want you
to know something none of that happened he saw David Eshobread
and he saw him get the sword of Goliath but he never heard
Ahimelech inquire of the Lord for him. And David makes known
David's secret visit to Ahimelech getting food. And I tell you
what, you know, here's the thing about it. He says that he has,
he said he inquired of the Lord for him. Now here's all you got
to do, and this is serious business. I really want you to listen to
this. He did see David eat food. He did see David get the sword.
But then he added something to it which made it so much worse
than it really was. He said that Ahimelech inquired
the Lord for David. And Ahimelech didn't do that.
So what he's done is to make himself look good and to get
on the good side of Saul, he said, I saw David down there. And I tell you what, he was whispering
around with the priest and whispering around with the Himalayan. And
I tell you what, and that, you know, all you got to do is just
change one little part of a story and change the whole meaning
of it. You know that? You can use by inference. Well, I don't know if this really
happened, but I think maybe it did, you know? And by inference,
you can get somebody to think, well, you know, they could have
done that. And what you know, the next thing
you know, you're sitting around looking at folks suspicious.
Boy, you reckon they did that? And so, you know, to do your
dead level best, if you're telling something, tell it the way it
really was. Don't add to it or take away
from it. And if it comes out wrong the first time, go back
and say, well, I was wrong the first time, here I am, I'm going
to remake what I just told you. I mean, that's just, that's being
honest. He said, be honest with all men.
Be honest with all men. But this is the fruit of jealousy
and hatred. Look what it says in verse 11.
Then the king sent to call Ahimelech the priest, the son of Ahiathub,
and all his father's house, the priests that were in Nob, they
came, all of them came to the king. And Saul said, Hear thou
now, thou son of Ahiathub. And he answered, Here I am, my
lord. And here's the first thing Saul
said, Why have you conspired against me, you and the son of
Jesse? Why have you conspired against
me? Here he goes again. Doag left the impression that
Ahimelech conspired with David, which he didn't do. So he inquired
of the Lord, and don't never bear false witness against anybody. If you don't know what happened,
say, I don't know. I didn't see it. Do whatever
you have to do. But if you tell a story, tell
it just like it was. That's no different than inventing
a lie and telling a lie. when you embellish the truth
and all Saul was second in Israel behind the high priest and all
he said and why have you conspired against me you and the son of
Jesse you gave him bread you gave him a sword and you inquired
of God for him that he should rise up against me to lie and
wait as at this day he's hid waiting on me gonna ambush me
Then look what Ahimelech answered the king and said, boy, you're
talking about, here's a faithful man. Here's a loyal man. Here's
a man who told it like it was. And this is the way we are about
our master. This is the way we are about
our Lord Jesus. Then Ahimelech answered the king and said, who
is so faithful among all thy servants as David? What service
do you have that's more faithful than David? And he's the king's
son-in-law. And when you tell him to go somewhere,
he goes. And he's honorable in thy house. So why in the world do you want
to be against Jesse? He said, there's nobody like
him in your whole house. You thought that brought him
down a little bit. Thought it'd calm him down. But
oh, no. No, no. Did I then begin to inquire
of God for him? This is the priest talking now.
Be it far from me. Let not the king impute anything
unto thy servant to all the house of my father. For thy servant
didn't know anything about this. I didn't know anything about
it one way or other. And oh my, this is what, and
Doag's lies revealed right there, but he don't care. And he faithfully
witnessed of David. And that's what we gotta do,
faithfully witness of our master, no matter what. And you look
what the king said in verse 16. You shall surely die, Ahimelech,
you and all your father's house. I'm gonna kill you. I'm gonna
kill you. What did he do? What did he do
besides give David some showbread and a sword? Saul's reasoning is because his
hand is with David and did let me know he charged him with treason
and rebellion. And the king said unto the footman
that stood about in verse 17, Turn and slay the priests of
the Lord. Here's his reasoning, because their hand is also with
David. Now you imagine if this is what
he's going to do to the priest, the service of the Most High
God, call of God, put in the priesthood by God. If this is
what he's going to do to them, imagine what he would have done
to David's mother and David's father and David's brothers.
But look what he said. Because they knew when he fled
and did not show it to them. They didn't come and tell me
about it. But the service of the king would not put forth
their hand to fall upon the priest of the Lord. He said, nope, we're
not going to do that. If it's going to be done, I'm not going
to be the one to do it. I'm not going to kill no priest.
I'm not going to kill somebody that God put in the office. But
there's always somebody willing to do the most wicked, wicked
thing. And the king said to Doeg, turn
you and fall upon the priest. And Doag the Edomite turned,
and he fell upon the priest and slew on that day four score and
five persons that did wear a linen ephod." Oh my. Ain't that awful? That's what
jealousy will do for you. That's what it will do for you.
And then Nob the city of the priests smote he with the edge
of the sword, both men, women, children, suckling, oxen, and
sheep with the edge of the sword. and only one escaped of sons
of Himalek, the son of Ahitub, named Abiathar, escaped and fled
after David. And oh, Abiathar would be a great
blessing and comfort to David. So David, when he returned to
Judah, it's like our Lord Jesus Christ, when he walked in right
among his enemies, walked right in in front of them. You know,
when our Lord Jesus Christ was standing before Pilate, just
like when Saul was standing there talking to a Himalayan. He was
standing before Pilate, and Pilate said, ask him about his disciples
and his doctrine. He said, well, ask them that
heard me. He said, I spoke openly in the
temple, and where the priests and the Pharisees always resort. And everything that I spoke,
I spoke openly. I didn't do nothing in secret.
I didn't, everything I did, I did openly. And he said, if you want
to know what I believe and what I've taught and that, ask them
who heard me. Ask the priest themselves, ask them who heard
me. Ask them who heard me. And because
he told him that, there was a man stood by him and slapped him
just like Doag would have done. Like that, he said, why did you
smite me? If I spoke evil, show me what
evil I've done. And that's what happened here.
They couldn't find no evil, but the man who did it was evil.
That's what jealousy will do for you. What he did here to
all these priests and what he sought to do to David. But thank
God, our David, our David, David through all this, you know where
you're going to find him? Sitting on his throne. After all this happened, you
know, we know the end of the story. All this happened to our
master, but we know the end of the story. David's on his throne,
and he's ruling. Amen. Our Father, oh bless your holy
name. Thank you for allowing us to
meet here tonight. Thank you for the goodness and grace of
God given to us in Christ. Lord, thank you for these dear
saints of God and for their attention. Oh Lord, it's nothing like your
people. And oh Lord, we again pray for those among us, Dorotha,
Bill, Fran, Bill Kirkpatrick, Bruce, Sandy, Bruce, and Joe.
People that we love and you love them so. Oh, you love them. Oh,
you love them. Oh, how you love them. And so
Lord, we Plead your love to do for them what only you can do. Believe in that you will and
bring glory to self in doing it. For Christ's sake. Amen.
Amen. Jesus Christ is made to be all
I need. All I need. He alone is all my
plea. He is all I need. Wisdom, righteousness, and power. My redemption full and sure He
is all I need
