When distress is come, found the strength in the Load

I Samuel 30 1-27
When David and his men came back to Zikleg, the Amalekites had raided the Negev and Zikleg, and had taken captive the women and all who were in it.
David was greatly distressed because the men were talking of stoning him. But David found strength in the Load his God. Then David said to Abiather the priest, "Bring me the ephod", and David inquired of the Load " Shall I pursue this raiding party? Will I overtake them?"
For 200 men were too exhausted to cross the ravine, But David and four hundred men continued the pursuit.
By the help of an Egyptian, a slave of an Amelekite, in the field brought, David gave him food and he brought David and his men down to his master, David fought them from dusk until the evening. David recovered everything the Amalejites had taken, including his two wives. Nothing was missing: young or old, boy and girl, plunder or anything else they had taken.
All the evil men and troublemakers among David's followers said,"Because they did not go out with us , we will not share with them the plunder we recovered."
David replied, "No, my brothers, you must not do that with what the Load has given us. He has protected us ad handed over to us the forces that came against s.Who will listen to what you say? The share of the man who stayed with the supplies is to be the same as that of him who went down to the battle." David made this a statute and ordinance for Israel from that day to this.
David's return is well-timed, and the slave's information more than a stroke of luck.
Why?
This battle is the help of the Load, with good timing and good information.
David under distress didn't forget inquire the Load. He also found strength in the Load.
Went down to the battle is same as stayed with the supplies my share the plunder, for the victory is belong to the Load.
How?
When I am distress I definitely need to inquire and pray to the Load.
Help some one needed might gain unexpected information, Help needed is not ask for reward, the reward will come from the Load.
