NETWORKING
II Samuel 15:27-29
"The king also said to Zadok the priest, 'Are you not a seer? Return to the city in peace, and your two sons, Ahimaaz your son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar. See, I will wait in the plains of the wilderness until word comes from you to inform me.' Therefore Zadok and Abiathar carried the ark of God back to Jerusalem. And they remained there."
David left a core of loyal subject in Jerusalem to keep him informed of Absalom's actions. These loyal people included the priests Zadok and Abiathar, their sons Ahimaaz and Jonathan, and also Hushai (vss. 32-37). They would keep David in the loop with news from Jerusalem. David had learned early the value of having loyal spies when Jonathan told David of Saul's plan to kill him, allowing David to escape (I Samuel 20). A network of loyal friends can be a valuable source of information when dealing with people who oppose me. If I know my enemies plans, I can make plans to respond appropriately.
TODAY'S PRINCIPLE: It pays to develop a network of loyal friends.

Have a networking day. Love you.
