TOPIC: WHAT DETERMINATION DOES 6: Mobile Daily Devotional with Pst. Fakunle Emmanuel Week 33, Day 6: Friday, 12 August, 2022. TOPIC: WHAT DETERMINATION DOES 6:

4 Then the men of David said to him, “This is the  day of which the LORD said to you, ‘Behold, I will  deliver your enemy into your hand, that you may  do to him as it seems good to you.’ ” And David  arose and secretly cut off a corner of Saul’s robe.

5 Now it happened afterward that David’s heart troubled him because he had cut Saul’s robe.

6 And he said to his men, “The LORD forbid that I should do this thing to my master, the LORD’s  anointed, to stretch out my hand against him,  seeing he is the anointed of the LORD.”

7 So David restrained his servants with these words, and did not allow them to rise against Saul. And Saul got up from the cave and went on his way.”

To be Good or Bad is determination. Paying evil for evil is determination and rewarding others with Good deed is also determination. Who are you and what have you determined to do? Paying evil for evil doesn’t make the world a better place. Some go to the extent of destroying others in order to get to the top in life, there is always the Law of Nature, it always pays back when you can’t reject it. It’s determination not to revenge, it’s a choice. To show kindness is also a result of self determination and your determination defines you better than the words of your mouth.

King David to be, had a whole King and his host against him, both in the city and in the wilderness. He was been pursued whenever his where about was discovered. An opportunity came for him to revenge and do away with King Saul, a time to pay him back his coin, but David determined not to lay His hand on the Anointed of God, Huunnnn, that is unique. If I may ask you at the other side, “What will be your action in that situation? If the king was killed, automatically, David becomes the King, but David saw it the other way round. He determined not to fight for Himself, He cut an edge of the robe of the king as an evidence. You don’t need to revenge before you make your point known. All you need do is to determined not to pay evil for evil. Determine to be good. Drop those ideas of “Repaying them in their coin” you are not God. Determine to do good come what may. David had the throne on a platter of gold, with the whole twelve tribes installing Him as the King. Determine to be good to your boss, your spouse, your coworkers, your landlord and your tenants. God rewards every determination. Let your determination be right.

God Bless you and Good Morning.
