The Battle is The Lord’s, Learn the Rules of Engagement

David had one thing on his mind concerning the Lord. He sought for, and insistently required that he might dwell in the presence of the Lord. After all the battles David went through successfully because of God’s help, He wanted more of the Lord. He tasted and could see that the Lord was good (Psalm 33:8). David said He wanted to gaze on the beauty of the Lord. He had a very close relationship with Almighty God who brought David through many battles victoriously. God wants to bring us through many of our own personal battles in life. It all depends on how close you are to the Lord. We get close to God by learning about Him and doing His commandments. His commandments are for our own good in this uncertain evil world. The Lord knows when we’re about to get into trouble and can ward us if we’re used to hearing the voice of His Spirit and what His word says on any given area of life. Draw near to God and God will draw near to you (James 4:8). Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness and all the things we need pertaining to life will be added unto us without our effort (Matthew 6:33).
