Did you notice the increase in the number of men that were following David? In chapter 22, about 400 men assembled at the cave. One battle and a saved city later and his army increases to 600 men. David's influence as a leader is obvious.
True leaders have an ability to inspire the hearts of the people that are following them. This is more than just charisma. David displays character and integrity. More than that, he shows a willingness to doing it God's way. This is an important part of being a leader. We see David inquiring of the Lord in this chapter as to what to do with Saul pursuing him. God is the ultimate counselor and will always show us ways out of difficult situations we are in.
"Father, help me anchor to you in the middle of life's storms."
Heart and Soul,
BAG
