The Danger of Doubting - A Spurgeon Sermon on 1 Samuel 27:1

In his sermon The Danger of Doubting, Charles Spurgeon reflects on 1 Samuel 27:1, where David, overwhelmed by fear, says in his heart, "I shall now perish one day by the hand of Saul." Spurgeon highlights how even God's most faithful servants can fall into moments of doubt, allowing fear to overshadow their trust in God's promises.

Spurgeon warns that doubt is more than just a fleeting emotion; it can lead believers down dangerous paths, distorting their view of God's faithfulness and prompting poor decisions. With heartfelt exhortation, he encourages listeners to resist despair and trust steadfastly in the Lord, reminding them that God’s promises are sure, even when circumstances seem bleak.

This sermon was preached on March 16, 1862 when Spurgeon was 28 years old. It can be found in Volume 8 of the Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit.
