Then David enquired of the LORD yet again. And the LORD answered him and said, Arise, go down to Keilah; for I will deliver the Philistines into thine hand.

Verse 4 is found in chapter 23 of 1 Samuel. David receives news that the Philistines are attacking Keilah and consults the Lord before acting. Although his men are afraid, David consults again and finally enters battle, delivering the city. Saul interprets David’s presence in a fortified city as an opportunity to capture him. The contrast shows David using his position to protect Israel while Saul considers the very defender an enemy. Repeated consultation with God distinguishes David’s leadership from Saul’s impulsive actions.
