Introduction
Have you ever gotten really upset when somebody?
I mean so upset that you were about to loose your religion like Kirk Franklin
And right before you were about to do something to somebody you know you have no business doing to anybody
Just before you were about to say something you would later regret
Right in the nick of time before you were about to walk your emotions off the ledge of sanity and self control
Somebody intervened and said a word or two to you to cause you to pause
And think and reflect
They spoke the true to you in love to get you back on the right track
In Atlanta, Georgia we used to call that Claimin’ True
Illustration: Sis.
Linda Mae Alves was that type of mother, sister, wife, god-mother, and friend
She spoke it like it was, plain and simple with no cherries on the top
Transition
The setting of our text today is in the wilderness of Paran or Maon
A place most of us would not expect to be fruitful or of any value
But the wilderness was the destination David found to be a place of refuge
Imagine the setting in your mind...
The wilderness (Maon) can still be sheep rearing country
Illustrate:  Sis.
Linda Mae Alves reared her children in what some may the wilderness of the city
Taunton to Brockton,
From Brockton to Colorado (Commerce City & Denver)
From Colorado back to Taunton
Then from Taunton to Virginia
Back up here to Providence, RI
Providence to North Carolina
Finally back to Providence for 6 days
- Sheep-shearing was traditionally celebrated by feasting, with enough to spare.
Illustrate:  Sis.
Linda Mae Alves not only fed & reared her children but she had enough in the
Godly women have power to encourage friends and family for the glory of God through what they see
Take for instance Abigail in our text today
Body
She knew the value of the LORD (whereas foolish people do not)
ABIGAIL knew the value of the LORD whereas foolish Nabel her husband did not!
The Power Of A Godly woman is shown in what she sees:
1.
Her seeing the urgency (of the moment) of speaking to her lord (v18, v23-25)?- 
2.
Her seeing the wisdom of giving extravagantly (v18)
2.  Her seeing the work of the LORD (v26)
3.  Her seeing the importance of the helping the young (v27)
3.  Her seeing the value of following the LORD (v28-29)
4.  Her seeing the benefit of trusting the LORD (30-31)
Conclusion
(TOTC 1-2 Sa): Abigail, whose name means ‘my father is joy[ous]’
Her father is joyous because:
(TOTC 1-2 Sa): Thanks to Abigail’s intervention, David had been reminded of his commitment to live by faith in the Lord God, and not by his own impulses, hence his acknowledgment, Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, who sent you this day, and thus saved many from death and David from bloodguilt.
And Sis.
Linda Mae Alves knew the value of pointing her children towards the LORD encouraging them to live by faith!
Luke 15:7
Do you know the value of the LORD today!
Do you know the king of glory?
Who is this king of glory?
He is the LORD God mighty and strong in battle
But there’s another joy in the text today!
Illustration:
Sis.
Linda Mae Alves- a joyful daughter
“Nothing Wrong Partying With Jesus”
“It will get better, put your faith in someone more powerful!”
“God has a plan- just keep the faith and things will be ok”
Keep my faith in God- no matter how hard or bleak things seem
“Good night, God bless you, I love you!”
