A devotional study about competition and how the Bible views it. We're going to start with this story from the life of King Saul and the young man David. This will be the first of at least two (2) studies on the biblical perspective on competition and the Christian. Let's look at one example provided to us on this topic.

1 Samuel 18:7-8 KJV
And the women answered one another as they played, and said, “Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands.” And Saul was very wroth, and the saying displeased him; and he said, “They have ascribed unto David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed but thousands: and what can he have more but the kingdom?”

During many of our podcasts, you will hear us make reference to “The Key Principles of Effective Bible Study,” a document which outlines core concepts shown in the scriptures that will help you better understand many Biblical themes and doctrines. We have done a whole podcast series on these principles which can be found here (https://BibleStudy.ASBzone.com/357512/8572886).

Lastly, we recommend that you check out https://TrueWisdom.buzzsprout.com for additional Bible Study podcasts, covering many different Bible topics, and done in a slightly different format from the podcasts on this channel.

We pray that all of these resources will be very helpful to you in your Bible Studies.
