Read this first: 1 Samuel 30:24-25
David rebuts the selfishness amongst his troops and insists all shall receive blessing from the victory, whatever role they played. He won't allow this attitude either now or in the future! In this he reflects the Lord's ways. Let us not be grumpily obsessed with our opinions, rights and wants. Rather, like our Saviour (Mat 20:1-16), let us be generously kind in dealing with others.
Based on the sermon “A generous king”
