2 Samuel 17
on July 8th, 2024
Good Morning “Those who know The Shepherd.” Today we are in 2 Samuel 17.God is about to act. Remember 2 Samuel 16:12 “It may be that the Lord will look upon my misery and restore me this day.” David never quit trusting in The Lord - but remained faithful to shepherd those that were with him. Out of love for the sheep, David became a warrior. David was always a shepherd - a picture of Jesus.Ab... Read More
2 Samuel 16
on July 7th, 2024
Good Morning “Recipients of Grace, but deserving of death.” Today we are in 2 Samuel 16.“The wages (payment) required for sin is death.” Romans 6:23 David continues to live through all of the discipline / punishment The Lord promised, yet even in the midst, as hard as it seems, he is the recipient of Gods Grace. David’s sin with Bathsheba deserved punishment, his subsequent murder of her husban... Read More
2 Samuel 15
on July 6th, 2024
Good Morning “Not Lured In.” Today we are in 2 Samuel 15. …Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.” 1 Peter 5:8 He’s a master of deception and persuasion and uses any means he can to do it.Here we read about Absalom, and his turning, conspiring, and the coup he leads against his father David. Absalom turns on his father, the one who forgave him for... Read More
2 Samuel 14
on July 5th, 2024
Good Morning “Doers of What’s Right.” Today we are in 2 Samuel 14.As we’ve said, the immediate consequence of sin is typically more sin. The ripple effect of our sin extends further than we could ever imagine. David didn’t execute justice when Amnon raped his half sister Tamar. This allowed Absalom her full brother to burn with anger and desire for revenge. Eventually Absalom lies, plots and ... Read More
2 Samuel 13
on July 4th, 2024
Good Morning “Hesitant to Hold Accountable.” Today we are in 2 Samuel 13.And so the prophesied consequences of David’s sin with Bathsheba continue. David knew he had been deceived by Amnon. David knew Amnon had in turn raped and dishonored Tamar - then cast her away. “…He was very angry” Vs 21. He was very angry and…And… it appears nothing. David was both the father and King, and in that, ha... Read More
2 Samuel 12
on July 3rd, 2024
Good Morning “Those who are broken.” Today we are in 2 Samuel 12.Yesterday we read about sins process in David. He saw, he entertained, he sinned. Sin purposes to give birth to more sin - it’s one of the consequences of sin. More sin! Sinking to a deeper depth is the result unless we stop it at a thought. David went from taking Bathsheba to premeditated murder. Pretty deep.After sin comes j... Read More
2 Samuel 11
on July 2nd, 2024
Good Morning “Those who take thoughts captive.” Today we are in 2 Samuel 11. As sin goes, the sin David is most remembered for has to be his sin with Bathsheba - that we read about in this chapter. The process David went through can serve as a clear description of the process we each go through as we choose sin. Pay careful attention as you read and take note.“…he saw a woman bathing; and the... Read More
2 Samuel 10
on July 1st, 2024
Good Morning “Those Who Desire The Lords Plan.” Today we are in 2 Samuel 10. Opposition to David’s Kingship continues - much like opposition to the One True King. One day the battle will come to an end… but until then, consider the foolishness of opposing Jesus.Joab, no doubt tutored by David, understood that God had the ultimate plan. He encouraged his men to give their all. He understood th... Read More
2 Samuel 9
on June 30th, 2024
Good Morning “Hopeless On Our Own.” Today we are in 2 Samuel 9. Politicians often make empty promises. Promises they NEVER tend to keep, have no power to bring about, or flip flop in later once they’ve gained approval. David is no politician. He’s a man after Gods own heart and a picture of the One to come. He made Jonathan a promise and he intends on keeping it.Mephibosheth was facing a life... Read More
2 Samuel 8
on June 29th, 2024
Good Morning “Those Who Choose Humble Submission” Today we are in 2 Samuel 8.He is Lord! Whether or not we accept that as Truth and submit to His Lordship doesn’t change the fact. Our world likes to make its “own truth”- but that’s not a thing. As a tool of the Evil One “My Truth” gives us permission to ignore Biblical Truth we are absolutely subject to. Truth is Truth, believe it or not - it... Read More
2 Samuel 7
on June 28th, 2024
Good Morning “Those With Good Intentions.” Today we are in 2 Samuel 7. As king, David is now enjoying all of the grandeur that comes with the office… including a grand house made of cedar. He reasons in his heart… How can I live here when the ARK of God resides in a tent. The place where God met with them, “The Lords House” was a tent. This didn’t sit well with David and he had the power to ch... Read More
2 Samuel 6
on June 27th, 2024
Good Morning “Those Willing to Put In The Work.” Today we are in 2 Samuel 6.I once had a young man, who had dated a couple girls, tell me that he could not wait to meet the one God had for him. Curious, I asked him why. Because when I meet the one God has for me we’ll just click. The relationship won’t be so hard. It’ll just be easy. Anyone who is married or had a serious relationship is lau... Read More
