1 Samuel 18

In 1 Samuel chapter 18, we see the powerful friendship between David and Jonathan, the rising favor of David among the people, and the beginning of King Saul’s jealousy. As David continues to walk in obedience to God, the Lord’s presence brings success in everything he does—while Saul’s fear and insecurity grow.
This chapter highlights themes of godly friendship, humility, jealousy, obedience, and God’s favor. Jonathan makes a covenant with David, Saul attempts to control David through manipulation, and David’s faithfulness shines despite opposition. God’s anointing cannot be stopped, even when others try to stand in the way.
