Psalm 139:23-24  Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my thoughts. 24 See if there is any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting

1 Samuel 21:14-22:2 Achish said to his servants, ‘Look, you see the man is mad; why then have you brought him to me? 15 Do I lack madmen, that you have brought this fellow to play the madman in my presence? Shall this fellow come into my house?’ David and His Followers at Adullam  22 1 David left there and escaped to the cave of Adullam; when his brothers and all his father’s house heard of it, they went down there to him. 2 Everyone who was in distress, and everyone who was in debt, and everyone who was discontented gathered to him; and he became captain over them. Those who were with him numbered about four hundred.

Hebrews 10:24-25 And let us consider how to provoke one another to love and good deeds,25 not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day approaching.
