1 Samuel 9–18 Recap | God Sees the Heart

June 28, 2025

This week we’ve traced the dramatic rise—and faltering obedience—of Saul, and the quiet anointing of David. From hidden baggage to battlefield bravery, the contrast between human appearance and God’s heart couldn’t be clearer. Through it all, one theme rings out: God doesn’t choose the way people do. He sees differently. He calls the unlikely. He honors obedience. And He’s faithful—even when we falter.

Devotional Reflection: “When No One Else Sees”

When others overlook you, God doesn’t. In the quiet, the ordinary, the faithful—He sees. David’s story reminds us that God chooses and uses those who walk closely with Him, even when the spotlight isn’t on them.

Preview of Next Week

Coming up in 1 Samuel 19–28: David is on the run, but never without God’s presence. We’ll encounter jealousy, loyalty, pursuit, and deep spiritual testing. Through every valley, God is there.

Summary Closing

Thanks so much for joining me today on No Dusty Bibles! Remember—God isn’t asking you to be perfect. He’s inviting you to choose Him, to choose life, one faithful step at a time.
Until next time, stay in the Word and trust in His promises. See you soon!
