The Road to Ziklag - ”I’ve Got an Idea”

I suspect that you've never had to run for your life for a decade.  David did along with his family & the families of his 600 men.  That'll wear on you after ten plus long years.  1 Samuel 27 is the record of a man who was weary of God's plan so he turns his back on faith and leans on his own best idea.  On the surface, it worked.  God even blessed him...until the bottom fell out and David, via God's sovereignty and grace, came to his senses and began to seek God again.
