2 Samuel 23:13-14
During harvest time, three of the thirty chief men came down to David at the cave of Adullam, while a band of Philistines was encamped in the Valley of Rephaim. At that time David was in the stronghold, and the Philistine garrison was at Bethlehem.
2 Samuel 23:15
David longed for water and said, “Oh, that someone would get me a drink of water from the well near the gate of Bethlehem!”
2 Samuel 23:16
So the three mighty men broke through the Philistine lines, drew water from the well near the gate of Bethlehem and carried it back to David.
2 Samuel 23:16b-17
But he refused to drink it; instead, he poured it out before the Lord. “Far be it from me, O Lord, to do this!” he said. “Is it not the blood of men who went at the risk of their lives?” And David would not drink it. Such were the exploits of the three mighty men.
All good things are a gift from God.
Look to God, not man.
God’s delight is your reward.
God’s Word finds you in whatever cave you’re in.
