Those of you who were privileged to attend Sunday school or the old children/teenagers’ department in church might remember the story of Jonathan and David, that incredible friendship that felt almost too pure for the world they lived in.
A prince and a shepherd boy… two people who should have been rivals, yet their hearts were knit together in loyalty, honor, and genuine love.
Jonathan was the son of a king, the obvious heir, the one everyone expected to rise next. But when God’s hand rested on David, Jonathan didn’t fight it, resent it, or compete with it.
He recognized destiny when he saw it.
This was a man who could have acted threatened… who could have quietly stepped back and allowed envy to poison him… who could have treated David as competition.
But Jonathan did the opposite.
He protected David.
Defended him.
Stood by him even when his own father turned against David.
He loved him with a sincerity that had no hidden agenda.
In a world where friendships are often built on advantage, competition, comparison, or convenience, Jonathan chose loyalty.
He chose honor over ego and purpose over position.
He showed us that the strongest people are those who can celebrate someone else’s rising moment even when their own path feels delayed.
Jonathan reminds us that some people are not sent to compete with you, they are sent to cover you, sharpen you, and walk with you toward purpose.
If God has given you a Jonathan-like heart, don’t lose it because of the selfishness around you.
Hi
Genuine loyalty is rare, but heaven sees it. God sees every time you choose peace instead of rivalry, every time you lift someone instead of dragging them, every time you support without seeking attention.
Your reward will not come from people, it will come from God, and it will come in a way that outlives titles, positions, and platforms.
Stay loyal. Stay pure-hearted. Your blessings won’t miss you and you won't miss out of your blessings.
