Seek God Before Acting

A — What is this about?
David consistently seeks the Lord's guidance before acting. Even when his men are afraid and circumstances are uncertain, he inquires of God, obeys His direction, and trusts His knowledge of future outcomes—even when people may betray him.

B — Best verse to summarize this passage:
"Therefore David inquired of the Lord, saying, 'Shall I go and attack these Philistines?' And the Lord said to David, 'Go and attack the Philistines and save Keilah.'" — 1 Samuel 23:2

C — What are we called to do?
Seek God's guidance before making decisions. Trust His wisdom rather than our own understanding, remain open to His direction through Scripture and prayer, and continue doing what is right even when others may not respond faithfully.
