David was a shepherd boy and Samuel anointed him. From that day, the spirit of the Lord was on David.
The spirit of the Lord left Saul and a tormenting spirit of fear and depression came upon Saul.
David first met Saul to play the harp for him to help him drive the spirit.
Then he became Saul's armor-bearer.
David then killed Goliath the Philistine giant with just a pebble because God was with him.
The reward he got was, he was exempted from paying tax and that he could marry Saul's daughter.
Saul became jealous of David when the people sang Saul killed thousand and David killed ten thousand.
So when David was playing the harp Saul hurled his spear on David.
Saul said he would give his daughter to David if he proves himself as a warrior by giving him 100 Philistines foreskins. But David gave 200 foreskins instead. He was made the commander of 1000 people.
Michel, Saul's daughter loved David and married him.
Though David is a small shepherd boy, we see here how God step by step took him into the palace and lifted him up.
Even today God has separated us and anointed us. He will lead us to step by step into His divine purpose in our life which we might have not imagined or even thought of. So don loose heart looking at the present situations.
