David, King of Israel
Even before David was anointed as their king, people wanted to follow Him. Many left their country and their king and risked their lives for Him. But the greatest testament to David’s worthiness as their king, was the number who came to anoint him and the three men who risked their lives just to provide him with a taste of home. Men will fight for a cause. But when they choose to follow a man who has no authority over them and they will do anything to please him, then you know they have found a great leader.
