I Samuel 20:24-42
Saul' anger flared up at Jonathan and he said to him, "As long as the son of Jesse lives on this earth , neither you nor your kingdom will be established.". When Jonathan asked "Why should he be put to death? What has he done". But Saul hurled his spear at him to kill him. Then Jonathan knew that his father intended to kill David.
In the morning Jonathan went to the field for his meeting with David He did as they made agreement. David wept the most, Jonathan said to David, "Go in peace, for we have sworn friendship with each other in the name of the Load, saying,"The Load is witness between you and me, and between your descendants and my descendants forever."
Why?
When Jonathan sworn with David, David had nothing, David was possible threaten Jonathan to be a king as Saul said, but Jonathan did not care about his future. He loves David, a innocent people, and he knew the Load is with David.
David and Jonathan had firmed friendship between them. They sworn friendship in the name of the Load, it was a oath forever, for the Load is living forever.
The future is can not control in our hand, it is in the hands of the Load. Saul planned to let this kingdom longer but he couldn't. Jonathan is more wise and obey the commands of the Load- do not bleed the blood of innocent people.
How?
Who will be a king is chosen the by Load, we my plan in our mind, but it will be done in God's hands. What we have to do is pray for the peoples and for myself. My life is to honor the name of the Load.
