"Fill your horn with oil, and go; I am sending you to Jesse the Bethlehemite. For I have provided Myself a king among his sons." v.1
Read chapter 16
Notice God is providing for Himself a king. It's not David's character that he was choosing but making him a man after God's heart. Too easy we get caught up in certain personalities are the ones that become Christian or Catholic or Buddhist or atheist Let us never stereotype which people should become which religion. We don't choose a god that can conform to who we are but we choose God who we conform to. David wasn't some acquaintance or apprentice of Samuel but was a "nobody," yet that nobody was great in God's eyes and usable for God's will.
