For we will not sit down till he comes here.\u201d So he sent and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, with bright eyes, and good-looking. And the LORD said, \u201cArise, anoint him; for this is the one!\u201d Then Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the midst of his brothers; and the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel arose and went to Ramah.\u201d\n\nGod\u2019s Labels Liberate\n\u2022\tYou are God\u2019s workmanship, created in Christ to do good works (Ephesians 2:10).\n\u2022\tYou are a joint-heir with Christ (Romans 8:17).\n\u2022\tYou are more than a conqueror through Him Who loves you.
