Chosen Not Chance
By Mark Flippo
1 Samuel Chapter 16:
7-But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.
12-And he sent, and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, and withal of a beautiful countenance, and goodly to look to. And the LORD said, Arise, anoint him: for this is he.
13-Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.
The Lord God saw that David would be the next king before any others did! It was a surprise even to David's father! God does not look on the outwardly features! When you are looking for someone to do a job for you, don't focus on the outside. Pray and let God guide you by their inwardly light. If you allow Him He will make your choices wise! Bless the name of the Lord!
