David was in dire straits. King Saul and his army sought after him to kill him. He sought solace in a secluded cave in the wilderness. Four hundred desperate men found him and joined him there. The Bible says "... everyone that was in distress, and everyone that was in debt, and everyone that was discontented, gathered themselves unto him..." Misery must really love company! When David thought he needed solitude God sent a multitude of misfits and malcontents to crash his pity party! In time God used these unwelcome intruders to become the core of David's great army.
Solitude and self-pity were not the solution. God used the unwelcome four hundred men to get David the caveman out his cave, into the battle and ultimately on to the throne as David the King.
It's time to come out of the cave! Join the battle! God has great things in store for you!
