Accusation from Eliab vs. David Killing Goliath
Ever Been Accused by Someone. Did that Stop You?
How to defend yourself when someone makes false accusations against you. Learn how David responded to his brother before fighting with Goliath.
And Eliab, his eldest brother, heard when he spake unto the
men, and Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said, Why camest thou
down hither? And with whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness? I
know thy pride and the naughtiness of thine heart, for thou art come down that
thou mightest see the battle.
Eliab accused David of
disobedience, insolence, and lack of responsibility. What basis did he have for
doing that? These accusations were false. Why the false allegations? Do you have people around
you making false accusations? They cannot deal with the truth. They must create
an alternate reality that places them at the top of an unassailable pile. Guard your heart! Will we allow the Eliab to stop you from your purpose, calling, etc.? David fulfilled
his purpose that day by killing Goliath.
David was the youngest and picked to be king, and Eliab was
jealous of David. David shows us how to deal with slander. David ruled his spirit and answered softly
back to his brother. Undoubtedly, his brother Eliab said hurt him, but he would not let it hinder him. Satan always has somebody to
tell us, “it can’t be done.” Eliab’s anger with the hatred of Joseph’s brethren
for him (Gen 37). David was more
concerned with God's cause then what people think. Are you
concerned about what people think? Do you fight back with accusations?
