Who is David? 1Samuel 25:10

Nabal's disregard of David reminded me of Pharoah's disregard of the Lord. Both ended badly!

But Pharaoh said, "Who is the LORD that I should obey His voice to let Israel go? I do not know the LORD, and besides, I will not let Israel go."
Exodus 5:2

People today have contempt toward the Lord. Contempt means a disregard for something that should be taken into account. The Lord is to be respected and obeyed or it will end badly for you. Read Psalm 2.

Nabal and Pharoah’s contempt toward the Lord also reminded me of who wins in the end. It’s not good to write off the Lord! He is patiently waiting for you right now. In the end He wins!

Who is the Lord? Listen to this!

Psalm 24
A Psalm of David.
The earth is the LORD'S, and all it contains,
The world, and those who dwell in it.
For He has founded it upon the seas
And established it upon the rivers.

Who may ascend into the hill of the LORD?
And who may stand in His holy place?
He who has clean hands and a pure heart,
Who has not lifted up his soul to falsehood
And has not sworn deceitfully.
He shall receive a blessing from the LORD
And righteousness from the God of his salvation.
This is the generation of those who seek Him,
Who seek Your face--even Jacob. Selah.

Lift up your heads, O gates,
And be lifted up, O ancient doors,
That the King of glory may come in!
Who is the King of glory?
The LORD strong and mighty,
The LORD mighty in battle.
Lift up your heads, O gates,
And lift them up, O ancient doors,
That the King of glory may come in!
Who is this King of glory?
The LORD of hosts,
He is the King of glory. Selah.
