Introduction

1 Samuel 27 – A tri-focal perspective for clarity and coherence:

A. APPRECIATING THE NARRATIVE HISTORICALLY

B. ASSESSING THE NARRATIVE THEOLOGICALLY
TWO IMPLICATIVE Principles:

1. When God is silent, it doesn’t mean that God is absent!

2. God expects us to use the faculties that He has already given to us!

C. APPROPRIATING THE NARRATIVE PERSONALLY

Application 1. Put God in the equation of your life!

Application 2. Master your inner script!

Application 3. When you have nowhere to run to, you must know where to run!

Conclusion.

Knowing God is the key!
