God Sees Differently
Aug 24, 2025 • Chad Merrell
The story of David’s anointing as king reminds us that God’s perspective often differs radically from our own. While we tend to judge by outward appearances, God looks at the heart. We're encouraged to remain faithful in our current circumstances, understanding that God can use ordinary people and situations for extraordinary purposes. The parallel between David's seeming insignificance and Christ's humble appearance reminds us that God's most significant victories often come through apparent weakness. This message invites us to examine our own lives, asking where we might be disqualifying ourselves or others based on outward appearances, and challenges us to trust God's vision over our own limited perspective.
