Psalms 78:70
“He also chose David his servant, and took him from the sheepfolds;”
What does Psalms 78:70 mean?
God's choice of David wasn't based on his position or status, but on who he was as a person. David was simply tending sheep when God selected him to become Israel's greatest king, showing that faithful service in humble circumstances matters deeply to God. This reminds us that our current situation, no matter how small or overlooked it might seem, is noticed by God and can be the starting point for something meaningful. The passage suggests that God looks at the heart and character of a person rather than their resume or their place in the world.
