Everyone arrives in Ziklag at some point in their life.
You’ve been there – you might be there now. It’s the place you arrive when you make a bad decision. Bad choices lead to the wrong destination.
King David was anointed by God, had defeated Goliath, but walked straight into a season of fear and doubt. In 1 Samuel 17, we read that he began to “think to himself," or "take his own counsel."
He didn’t have someone to talk to – he acted out of fear and didn’t listen to anyone.
In the shallow region of his own wisdom, he made a bad choice and ended up on a detour to a small city named Ziklag. It was a compromise with the enemy. Ziklag was not a place where God intended for David to live.
In Ziklag, David met his worst defeat. Everything he had was taken from him, and also from all his men. The enemy took his family, his possessions, and his honor. His men were depressed and mutinous. David was despondent.
In the wreckage of his worst defeat, David finally turned to prayer and, rather than listen to himself, he listened to God. God said, “Pursue the enemy and you will recover all.”
At one Lions Roar, Mike Kai stirred us up and gave us a word that has stuck in my heart. In Mike's message, “Pursue the enemy and you will recover all” became “Get Your Stuff Back!” What a great word!
