David Anointed King 16The Lord said to Samuel, How long will you grieve over Saul, since I have rejected him from being king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil, and go. I will send you to Jesse the Bethlehemite, for I have provided for myself a king among his sons. 2And Samuel said, How can I go? If Saul hears it, he will kill me. And the Lord said, Take a heifer with you and say, I have come to sacrifice to the Lord. 3And invite Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show you what you shall do. And you shall anoint for me him whom I declare to you. 4Samuel did what the Lord commanded and came to Bethlehem. The elders of the city came to meet him trembling and said, Do you come peaceably? 5And he said, Peaceably; I have come to sacrifice to the Lord. Consecrate yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice. And he consecrated Jesse and his sons and invited them to the sacrifice. 6When they came, he looked on Eliab and thought, Surely the Lord's anointed is before him. 7But the Lord said to Samuel, Do not look on his appearance or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him. For the Lord sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart. 8Then Jesse called Abinadab and made him pass before Samuel. And he said, Neither has the Lord chosen this one. 9Then Jesse made Shammah pass by. And he said, Neither has the Lord chosen this one. 10And Jesse made seven of his sons pass before Samuel. And Samuel said to Jesse, The Lord has not chosen these. 11Then Samuel said to Jesse, Are all your sons here? And he said, There remains yet the youngest,[a] but behold, he is keeping the sheep. And Samuel said to Jesse, Send and get him, for we will not sit down till he comes here. 12And he sent and brought him in. Now he was ruddy and had beautiful eyes and was handsome. And the Lord said, Arise, anoint him, for this is he. 13Then Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the midst of his brothers. And the Spirit of the Lord rushed upon David from that day forward. And Samuel rose up and went to Ramah. David in Saul's Service 14Now the Spirit of the Lord departed from Saul, and a harmful spirit from the Lordtormented him. 15And Saul's servants said to him, Behold now, a harmful spirit from God is tormenting you. 16Let our lord now command your servants who are before you to seek out a man who is skillful in playing the lyre, and when the harmful spirit from God is upon you, he will play it, and you will be well. 17So Saul said to his servants, Provide for me a man who can play well and bring him to me. 18One of the young men answered, Behold, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, who is skillful in playing, a man of valor, a man of war, prudent in speech, and a man of good presence, and the Lord is with him. 19Therefore Saul sent messengers to Jesse and said, Send me David your son, who is with the sheep. 20And Jesse took a donkey laden with bread and a skin of wine and a young goat and sent them by David his son to Saul.21And David came to Saul and entered his service. And Saul loved him greatly, and he became his armor-bearer. 22And Saul sent to Jesse, saying, Let David remain in my service, for he has found favor in my sight. 23And whenever the harmful spirit from God was upon Saul, David took the lyre and played it with his hand. So Saul was refreshed and was well, and the harmful spirit departed from him. David and Goliath 17Now the Philistines gathered their armies for battle. And they were gathered at Socoh, which belongs to Judah, and encamped between Socoh and Azekah, in Ephes-dammim. 2And Saul and the men of Israel were gathered, and encamped in the Valley of Elah, and drew up in line of battle against the Philistines. 3And the Philistines stood on the mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on the mountain on the other side, with a valley between them. 4And there came out from the camp of the Philistines a champion named Goliath of Gath, whose height was six[b] cubits[c] and a span. 5He had a helmet of bronze on his head, and he was armed with a coat of mail, and the weight of the coat was five thousand shekels[d] of bronze. 6And he had bronze armor on his legs, and a javelin of bronze slung between his shoulders. 7The shaft of his spear was like a weaver's beam, and his spear's head weighed six hundred shekels of iron. And his shield-bearer went before him. 8He stood and shouted to the ranks of Israel, Why have you come out to draw up for battle? Am I not a Philistine, and are you not servants of Saul? Choose a man for yourselves, and let him come down to me. 9If he is able to fight with me and kill me, then we will be your servants. But if I prevail against him and kill him, then you shall be our servants and serve us. 10And the Philistine said, I defy the ranks of Israel this day. Give me a man, that we may fight together. 11When Saul and all Israel heard these words of the Philistine, they were dismayed and greatly afraid. 12Now David was the son of an Ephrathite of Bethlehem in Judah, named Jesse, who had eight sons. In the days of Saul the man was already old and advanced in years.[e] 13The three oldest sons of Jesse had followed Saul to the battle. And the names of his three sons who went to the battle were Eliab the firstborn, and next to him Abinadab, and the third Shammah.14David was the youngest. The three eldest followed Saul, 15but David went back and forth from Saul to feed his father's sheep at Bethlehem. 16For forty days the Philistine came forward and took his stand, morning and evening. 17And Jesse said to David his son, Take for your brothers an ephah[f] of this parched grain, and these ten loaves, and carry them quickly to the camp to your brothers. 18Also take these ten cheeses to the commander of their thousand. See if your brothers are well, and bring some token from them. 19Now Saul and they and all the men of Israel were in the Valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines. 20And David rose early in the morning and left the sheep with a keeper and took the provisions and went, as Jesse had commanded him. And he came to the encampment as the host was going out to the battle line, shouting the war cry. 21And Israel and the Philistines drew up for battle, army against army. 22And David left the things in charge of the keeper of the baggage and ran to the ranks and went and greeted his brothers.23As he talked with them, behold, the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, came up out of the ranks of the Philistines and spoke the same words as before. And David heard him. 24All the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him and were much afraid. 25And the men of Israel said, Have you seen this man who has come up? Surely he has come up to defy Israel. And the king will enrich the man who kills him with great riches and will give him his daughter and make his father's house free in Israel. 26And David said to the men who stood by him, What shall be done for the man who kills this Philistine and takes away the reproach from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God? 27And the people answered him in the same way, So shall it be done to the man who kills him. 28Now Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spoke to the men. And Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said, Why have you come down? And with whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your presumption and the evil of your heart, for you have come down to see the battle. 29And David said, What have I done now? Was it not but a word? 30And he turned away from him toward another, and spoke in the same way, and the people answered him again as before. 31When the words that David spoke were heard, they repeated them before Saul, and he sent for him. 32And David said to Saul, Let no man's heart fail because of him. Your servant will go and fight with this Philistine. 33And Saul said to David, You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him, for you are but a youth, and he has been a man of war from his youth. 34But David said to Saul, Your servant used to keep sheep for his father. And when there came a lion, or a bear, and took a lamb from the flock, 35I went after him and struck him and delivered it out of his mouth. And if he arose against me, I caught him by his beard and struck him and killed him. 36Your servant has struck down both lions and bears, and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be like one of them, for he has defied the armies of the living God. 37And David said, The Lord who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said to David, Go, and the Lord be with you! 38Then Saul clothed David with his armor. He put a helmet of bronze on his head and clothed him with a coat of mail, 39and David strapped his sword over his armor. And he tried in vain to go, for he had not tested them. Then David said to Saul, I cannot go with these, for I have not tested them. So David put them off. 40Then he took his staff in his hand and chose five smooth stones from the brook and put them in his shepherd's pouch. His sling was in his hand, and he approached the Philistine. 41And the Philistine moved forward and came near to David, with his shield-bearer in front of him. 42And when the Philistine looked and saw David, he disdained him, for he was but a youth, ruddy and handsome in appearance. 43And the Philistine said to David, Am I a dog, that you come to me with sticks? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods. 44The Philistine said to David, Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the air and to the beasts of the field. 45Then David said to the Philistine, You come to me with a sword and with a spear and with a javelin, but I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. 46This day the Lord will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you down and cut off your head. And I will give the dead bodies of the host of the Philistines this day to the birds of the air and to the wild beasts of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel, 47and that all this assembly may know that the Lordsaves not with sword and spear. For the battle is the Lord's, and he will give you into our hand. 48When the Philistine arose and came and drew near to meet David, David ran quickly toward the battle line to meet the Philistine. 49And David put his hand in his bag and took out a stone and slung it and struck the Philistine on his forehead. The stone sank into his forehead, and he fell on his face to the ground. 50So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and struck the Philistine and killed him. There was no sword in the hand of David. 51Then David ran and stood over the Philistine and took his sword and drew it out of its sheath and killed him and cut off his head with it. When the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled. 52And the men of Israel and Judah rose with a shout and pursued the Philistines as far as Gath[g] and the gates of Ekron, so that the wounded Philistines fell on the way from Shaaraim as far as Gath and Ekron. 53And the people of Israel came back from chasing the Philistines, and they plundered their camp. 54And David took the head of the Philistine and brought it to Jerusalem, but he put his armor in his tent. 55As soon as Saul saw David go out against the Philistine, he said to Abner, the commander of the army, Abner, whose son is this youth? And Abner said, As your soul lives, O king, I do not know. 56And the king said, Inquire whose son the boy is. 57And as soon as David returned from the striking down of the Philistine, Abner took him, and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistine in his hand. 58And Saul said to him, Whose son are you, young man? And David answered, I am the son of your servant Jesse the Bethlehemite.

In this Coaches Corner episode of Silent Sales Machine Radio, Brian and Robin Joy unpack a surprisingly common challenge among resellers: the obsession with sourcing new ASINs over building sustainable, replenishable inventory. Through humorous anecdotes, practical coaching insights, and relatable metaphors, they explore the psychology behind the "thrill of the chase" and how to shift focus toward long-term e-commerce success.   Whether you're stuck in the cycle of constant test buys or struggling to find "profitable" ASINs, this episode delivers a fresh perspective: it's not about perfection—it's about progress.   Learn how building a robust viable ASIN database can be your most powerful strategy, why testing trumps guessing, and how to play the long game without burnout.   Highlights include:   The difference between viable, testable, and replenishable ASINs Why your sourcing mindset matters more than your tools How to use Keepa data and sales cycles to your advantage The power of “shopping the back of the list” Why success in e-commerce is truly a numbers game   Don't just chase the next shiny ASIN—build your base, trust the process, and test more!   Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: "If I've sold a brand for a long time, can Amazon re-gate me?

In this episode of The Twelfth House, we're exploring our concept of Void States and how running experiments can help you break free from feeling stuck, uninspired, or overwhelmed.There are three different void states that we might experience when wondering "what the hell should I do next?":* The Uninspired State: Where you don't know enough about yourself or the world to know what you want to do next. This state can benefit from tools like subconscious audits, meaning-making systems like astrology and human design, and shadow work.* The Burnt Out and Overwhelmed State: When you've put in effort but aren't getting recognition or satisfaction in return, leading to burnout and a lack of clarity on next steps.* The Overwhelmed By Possibility State: When you have too many options and ideas but don't know where to start, experiencing analysis paralysis and fear of making the wrong choice.These void states are natural parts of life's cycles — we'll all go through all of them many times throughout our lives. But that doesn't make a Void State, like, a super fun time. Anyway, running experiments in your life or business — essentially creating pattern interruptions that introduce new stimuli and change the way you experience your environment — can absolutely be a tool to getting you unstuck if you're having a hard time getting out of a void state. Experiments aren't about success or failure, but about introducing new information into your system to help you get unstuck and see the world differently.Signs you're ready for an experiment:* Feeling bored/stuck/overwhelmed * The outcomes you're getting feel like a season of Real Housewives that should've ended three episodes ago* You catch yourself saying "I should..." more than "I want..." (giving very much corporate girlboss energy when you're trying to be intuitive business queen)I share my personal approach to experiments and how to reassess when the experiment starts to feel oppressive (boooo) rather than illuminating (yaaaaay). Some experiments that you can try for yourself: * Sell something in your business every day for 30 days* Change how you present yourself daily for a month* Do something surprising or uncomfortable daily* Test your failure tolerance by putting yourself in the position to get rejected on the daily. Oh, and we just opened the doors to "Ruthless Clarity," an eight-week email course designed to help people clear overwhelm and get clarity on their motivations, priorities, and internal compass. You can learn more here — we start on May 11th!

In today's episode, we're talking about why putting first things first matters more than ever when you're under pressure. We'll explore the hidden costs of busyness, how to recognize when it's time to say "no" to good things to protect the best things, and why you must be intentional about hearing from God in every season. Plus, we'll share practical steps to help you and your spouse stay connected, even when life feels heavy. If you're feeling stretched thin, stressed out, or spiritually distant, this conversation is for you.

Have you ever seen bundles on Amazon? It's a listing where two or more complimentary items are sold together (examples would be a needles and thread for sewing or a coffee bean grinder and a bag of coffee beans etc.)   Is it safe to sell bundles on Amazon? Is it within Amazon policy to combine complimentary items and create a new listing? Can I include brands I don't own? What are the risk?   Is this idea dead without a letter of permission from the brands I sell? (also called an LOA or Letter Of Authorization)   In the summer of 2024 Amazon made some policy changes for creating and regulating bundles. A good handful of sellers were suspended for having created bundles improperly and their bundles were removed from the catalog.   To our knowledge, all those sellers were reinstated thankfully, but it caused a bit of a stir at the time.  After the dust settled entirely, we decided it was time for us to revisit the bundle topic and see how sellers are doing in this arena. A leading bundle expert and coach in our community is Leanna Crocco. She has been thriving with bundles on Amazon for over a decade at this point and she has some incredible insights into what has changed and what the landscape of opportunity now looks like as she continues to use the strategies taught in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com to expand and flourish!   Stick around for the last few minutes of the episode today to hear an update about "The System". The System (aka 3PMercury found at SilentJim.com/thesystem) is the software that completely automated Khang's $3 million replens business with 10,000 ASINs while requiring only a team of only 2 people!
