Several Sundays ago we studied the first five verses of 1 Samuel 18 in which we witnessed the birth of that famous friendship between David and Jonathan. This friendship had its beginnings in those happy days following the killing of Goliath. Everybody was lining up to pat David on the back then! However, often times it takes a trial to reveal who one’s true friends are. As it says in Proverbs 17:17, “A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.” This Sunday as we dive into 1 Samuel 20 we will see how David leans on his friend in the midst of adversity and how the mettle of Jonathan’s friendship is tested. I pray that God will speak powerfully through His word as we unpack this portion of scripture together.
