+

[[David]] is now completely separated from Saul's court and is considered an outlaw and a rebel. Psalm 34 grew out of his narrow escape from Achish and perhaps best expresses [[David]]'s trials and triumphs during his exile period.

+

[[David]] assembled a loyal band of followers at the Cave of Adullam, a crowd of 400 men that eventually grew to 600. His experiences in the cave are found in Psalm 57 and Psalm 142. [[David]] would want to protect his brethren, since [[Saul]] might want to slay them as well as [[David]].

+

This period of persecution in [[David]]'s life was a part of his preparation for the throne. He was a great soldier, but he needed to suffer in the wilderness to learn not to trust men and how to trust the [[Lord]]. All of us need wilderness testings to bring us closer to the [[Lord]], and to make us better equipped to serve Him.

+

It was important that [[David]] live, for it was he who would deliver [[Israel]], establish the kingdom in glory, and become the father of Christ in the flesh. [[Satan]] used [[Saul]] to seek to kill [[David]], but [[God]] was too strong for the enemy. As long as [[David]] sought the mind of the [[Lord]], [[God]] gave him protection and [[victory]].

+

In chapter 23 we see how [[God]] guarded [[David]]'s life and gave him [[victory]] at Keilah (verses 1-13), [[victory]] in the wilderness (verses 14-18), and [[victory]] over the Ziphites (verses 19-29).
