1 Samuel 16:14-18
14  But the Spirit of the Lord departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the Lord troubled him.
15  And Saul’s servants said unto him, Behold now, an evil spirit from God troubleth thee.
16  Let our lord now command thy servants, which are before thee, to seek out a man, who is a cunning player on an harp: and it shall come to pass, when the evil spirit from God is upon thee, that he shall play with his hand, and thou shalt be well.
17  And Saul said unto his servants, Provide me now a man that can play well, and bring him to me.
18  Then answered one of the servants, and said, Behold, I have seen a son of Jesse the Beth–lehemite, that is cunning in playing, and a mighty valiant man, and a man of war, and prudent in matters, and a comely person, and the Lord is with him.

God had a vision for His people.

But in achieving this purpose He needed a man

Psalm 89:20-36
20  I have found
avid my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:

21  With whom my hand shall be established: mine arm also shall strengthen him.
22  The enemy shall not exact upon him; nor the son of wickedness afflict him.
23  And I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague them that hate him.
24  But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him: and in my name shall his horn be exalted.
25  I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
26  He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.
27  Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.
28  My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him.
29  His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
30  If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;
31  If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;
32  Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.
33  Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.
34  My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.
35  Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David.
36  His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me.

LIFE STARTS WITH GOD

Psalm 46:1-7
1  God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
2  Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
3  Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.
4  There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.
5  God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.
6  The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.
7  The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
