These are chapters that are enough to break your heart. I have always loved David, and I thrill to the things he writes about the Lord and his love for the Lord. So. to see the events of his life unfold have truly always been personal to me. I feel a personal loss when we're thinking about David. So let's talk a little bit about his background.

Today's reading includes an account of sexual violence, so listener discretion is advised. The sexual sin that began in David's heart and was executed in front of his household is now spreading throughout his family, as his sons begin to use their own power to satisfy their own lust and perversity. David's son Amnon lusts after Tamar, his own half-sister, and plots to rape her at the encouragement of his friend Jonadab. When David discovers that Tamar has been raped by Amnon, he is furious, but sadly, he does nothing to intervene. Tamar's brother Absalom is furious, setting in motion a series of events that causes havoc, not only in David's household, but in his kingdom. 2 Samuel 13 - 1:05 .  2 Samuel 14 - 10:01 .  Psalm 101 - 17:47 .  :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Bible.facebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

→ Watch on YouTube → Detailed Show Notes(00:00) The story of David and Goliath. The Hebrew and Greek versions of 1 Samuel 17 render different accounts of Goliath's height. An overview of Goliath's weapons and armor.(05:10) Goliath as a symbol of the unconquerable foes that we all face. David employs six strategies to defeat Goliath that can also be applied to our challenges.(13:53) The sword of Goliath as an article of kingship and evidence that God is with us.(16:25) King Saul is jealous of David and is obsessed with killing him.(26:32) Jonathan is a true friend to David, even though he has reason to be jealous of his success.(29:56) David continues his quest of goodness, yet Jonathan is not threatened.(32:26) David has opportunity to kill Saul, but doesn’t.(32:55) Nabal rebuffs David and refuses to give him food. Abigail acts as a peacemaker, thus saving Nabal's life.(36:11) King Saul consults with the Witch of Endor for revelation. He interacts with the ghost of Samuel, who has died. This experience with the spiritualist medium destroys hope.(39:31) The Philistine leaders send David away during their attack on Saul's forces. David goes to Ziklag and finds that his city has been sacked by the Amalekites and his family has been taken captive. David rescues all the people and shares the spoils of war.(41:58) The Philistines defeat Israel. King Saul and his sons are slain.(43:19) The rise of King David in 2 Samuel.(46:47) Uzzah is smitten for steadying the Ark.(51:03) David acts as both king and priest in his return to Jerusalem. He wears the ephod and offers sacrifice.(53:50) David obtains the threshing floor, where the Ark will rest. The threshing floor can be seen as the foundation stone, the heart of the Holy of Holies and a symbol of Jesus Christ as Savior of the world.(55:43) David desires to build a temple for the Lord. Nathan prophesies that the House of David will continue forever. This prophecy finds fulfillment in Jesus Christ.(1:02:13) David is not to build the temple, but his son Solomon will built it. → For more of Bryce Dunford’s podcast classes, click here. → Enroll in Institute → YouTube → Apple Podcasts → Spotify → Amazon Music → Facebook The post Ep 376 | 1 Samuel 17-31, 2 Samuel 1-7, Come Follow Me 2026 (June 15-21) appeared first on LDS Scripture Teachings.

POWER FOR TODAY is intended to equip the believers with the supernatural dimension of God through the teaching of the unadulterated word of God.

Throughout the Old Testament, we meet men of varying backgrounds who set out to obey the Lord and deliver God's people. Time and again, God's people rejoice and revel in their hero, but inevitably, these men fall and are shown to be sinful. David is no exception. Luxury and boredom turn into lust, which turns into an abuse of power, then adultery, then deception, then second-hand murder. Though he tries to hide his sin by sinning further, the Lord will not allow the sin of Israel's king to go unpunished. Because of his sin, the Lord says that he will take David's wives and give them to another before all of Israel. While 2 Samuel records this failure, 1 Chronicles does not. 2 Samuel 11 - 1:04 .  2 Samuel 12 - 8:06 .  1 Chronicles 20 - 15:19 .  Psalm 100 - 17:26 .  :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Bible.facebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

What if the quiet revolution drawing hundreds of millions into daily scripture study—and toward the Savior himself—began with a single question: does anyone actually read this?

20 Proverbs 15-16; 2 Samuel 24; 1 Kings 1-3; 19 Psalms 105-106; 40 Matthew 1-5

In today's readings, we'll cover some of David's military exploits. As he and his forces are victorious over their enemies, the reader is to understand that the Lord is with him in battle. The narrative thus far has established that David prioritizes the right worship of God. Much like the gospel accounts, we'll read parallel narratives when we read portions from 2 Samuel and from 1 Chronicles, so don't be alarmed or feel like you're experiencing déjà vu. One section that's unique to 2 Samuel is a recording of David's kindness to a handicapped man named Mephibosheth; he was last remaining relative of Saul's family, the son of his friend Jonathan. 2 Samuel 8 - 1:06 .  2 Samuel 9 - 4:18 .  2 Samuel 10 - 8:22 .  1 Chronicles 18 - 14:39 .  1 Chronicles 19 - 15:29 .  Psalm 99 - 19:31 .  :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Bible.facebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

20 Proverbs 13-14; 2 Samuel 19-23; 19 Psalms 102-104; 66 Revelation 18-22

As we are reading chronologically, there will be a number of passages that cover the same event or span from different perspectives. Today, we'll read the account of the return of the ark that was covered in 1 Chronicles, followed by the Lord's covenant with David from both accounts. After King David reestablishes the tabernacle, he returns to his own home, a palace made of cedar, and thinks “Why does God dwell in a tent, while I, a mere man, dwell in a palace?” As his wheels begin to spin, he tells Nathan the prophet. Nathan tells David to go for it, but later receives a vision from the Lord: a Son of David will build a house for God that will last forever. 2 Samuel 6 - 1:06 .  2 Samuel 7 - 6:47 .  1 Chronicles 17 - 12:57 .  Psalm 98 - 18:25 .  :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Bible.facebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

Do you recognize your Blessings?        In this sermon from 2 Samuel 5, we see David finally anointed king over all Israel and immediately stepping into the responsibility of his calling. Rather than settling into comfort, David moves toward Jerusalem, confronting the Jebusite stronghold that had remained unconquered for generations. Through David's obedience, the sermon invites us to consider where we have grown comfortable with compromise, where the enemy has convinced us certain areas are “unbreachable,” and how God calls His children to be led by the Spirit, soft and pliable in His hands, and faithful to act on the calling He has given.

Deception in the Kingdom (2 Samuel 14:1-33) Kelly Dotson

Bridge from Habakkuk to Lamentations

We've been talking a lot about Yahweh's sovereignty for the last couple of weeks how does our sin fit in the plan? What happens when believers sin? We know that our salvation is secure so does it matter if we sin?

Biblically, when we have wronged someone, we have a debt to them. David had to be shown his sin. How do we react when God shows us our hearts? Do we repent? Confess? Or do we deny what He has shown us? Listen as Messianic Rabi Jeff Zaremsky shares from the Bible how David dealt with hearing his wrongs!

Russ Masterson teaches from 2 Samuel 13 - 18.
