    Battle To Confess

    This sermon focuses on the importance of confession and repentance, using the story of King David's sin with Bathsheba from 2 Samuel 12. The message emphasizes how David, despite being a man after God's heart, fell into sin and tried to cover it up until confronted by the prophet Nathan. The sermon highlights that true repentance requires acknowledging sin, accepting consequences, and turning back to God with a sincere heart.Intro PrayerHeavenly Father,  we ask that you would open our hearts to receive your truth. Help us to be honest with ourselves and with you about areas in our lives that need confession and repentance. Give us the courage to face our sins and the humility to turn from them. In Jesus' name, Amen.# Key Verses2 Samuel 12:131 John 1:9James 1:22-25Hebrews 4:12Welcome, we are so glad you have joined us for our church online!

We are to maintain and grow our faith level throughout our life so that when difficulties and fears hit us, we will not back down.The irony of David counting his army in 2 Samuel 23,24 we read that David is giving God praise for his protection. Not only that, butsame chapter he chronicles the feats of his mighty men in battle.Isn't that interesting, how on one hand David gave God praise for His mightyacts and yet on the other hand he sides with his fears that his army may notbe strong enough to defeat Israel's adversaries?Welcome, we are so glad you have joined us for our Podcast!

Sheep don't do well with unfamiliar ground because they see it as death defying. However, a good shepherd does not worry but leads the sheep with confidence because he has already tested the trail and knows his sheep will make it.This Sunday, we will learn that, at times, God will test our limits for the sake of getting us to a better place in life. Even when we fear the uncharted territory where He is taking us, we must remind ourselves that He's been there before and knows we will persevere. If you have made a decision to follow Jesus or want to learn more about Him click here:https://www.harvestvalley.org/needprayer​To support the ministry of Harvest Valley Church and invest into the lives of others through giving: https://www.harvestvalley.org/give​Subscribe to more messages from Harvest Valley  Church here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6Vt...​Find us on Social! Facebook      https://www.facebook.com/HarvestValle...​Instagram      https://www.instagram.com/Harvest_Val...​iTunes            https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...​Spotify           https://open.spotify.com/show/3AH104U...​           si=D1PpQJ37TcWuDK6z4SJZpgSupport the show

They naturally graze where they've been before because its familiar.  If sheep are left alone to follow their instincts then they will continually go back to the  same pasture they've been which in turn will lead them to overgraze and over defecation on the land which in turn will cause the sheep to starve and be sicked by the excrement . A good shepherd however will continue to lead the sheep to virgin pastures so they can stay healthy and feed.

    For the Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. Psalm 23It 's easy to fixate on the fact that Jesus is our Shepherd, that guides us in life, leads us in the places we need to be led. But there's another side to his shepherding, which is when we journey off on our own, when we get lost, when we try to find greener pastures. He will not just let us go, without a fight. He 's going to fight for you because he's committed to you. If someone causes you to go down the wrong path, if someone provokes you to go down that path that he's not leading, that God is not wanting you to go down to how many know God is passionate about that as well. What this means is you have to now deal and contend with a jealous God. Romans 8:38, 39 tells us how jealous. For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor death, nor any other created thing shall be able to.
