1 Samuel23:7

7 ¶ And it was told Saul that David was come to Keilah: and Saul said, God hath delivered him into mine hand : for he is shut in, by entring into a town that hath gares and bars .

He easily believed what he greedily desired, though his own experience had oft shewed him how strangely God had delivered him out of his hands, and what a singular care God had over him.

So that which he chose for his safety, will be his certain ruin.
