Hospitality
Series: Pursuit, a Study of David
Summary
When David seeks supplies from Nabal, this resident of Carmel dishonors and shames the Lord's anointed. Abigail, Nabal's wife, shows David great hospitality because she believes that he is chosen of the Lord. She recognizes God's work in David's life even when David was not officially king. Because of Abigail's actions, she saves her household and the Lord strikes Nabal dead. Do you, like Abigail, recognize God's work when it is difficult to see?
