God's Anointed Ones

God’s Anointed One’s

Psalm 105:15 says, “Do not touch my anointed ones; do my prophets no harm.” Unfortunately, for Saul, David had not written this Psalm to warn of the dangers of hurting the people of God. 

However, his officials knew better. That is why none of them agreed to kill the priests of Nob. 

When Doeg (from yesterday’s post) agrees to carry out the order, Saul’s fate is sealed. God will not leave unpunished those who defy His word. Let that sink in.

Here’s today’s Bible verse. Enjoy. 

1 Samuel 22:17

17 Then the king ordered the guards at his side: “Turn and kill the priests of the Lord, because they too have sided with David. They knew he was fleeing, yet they did not tell me.”

But the king’s officials were unwilling to raise a hand to strike the priests of the Lord.
