Ever wondered about the visible signs of God's covenants? This episode explores one of the most profound questions in biblical theology: What is the visible representation of God's covenant with King David?Pastor Heath Lambert dives deep into covenant theology, explaining how God uses visible signs to represent invisible relationships. Discover why Jesus sitting on His heavenly throne is the ultimate fulfillment and visible sign of the Davidic covenant, and what this means for believers today.KEY TIMESTAMPS0:00 - Introduction: The visible sign of the Davidic Covenant1:04 - What is a covenant?

He shall build a house for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever."Luke 1:32-33 - "He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. And the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David, and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end."Hebrews 1:3 - "He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high."
This Sunday, we'll see King David foolishly believe sin's lies after a long season of living under God's rule and reign. After sinning greatly in taking what isn't his, David uses all of his power and might, not to run to God, but to attempt to hide what he's done. In doing so, sin's deceit and destruction become apparent... as well as the reality that only God's True King can cover sin.2 Samuel 11
Scripture References: Matthew 10:5-31, Proverbs 1:7, Proverbs 3:13-18, Proverbs 10:27, Proverbs 14:26-27, Proverbs 15:16, Psalm 19:9, Psalm 25:12-14, Psalm 31:19-20, Psalm 34, Isaiah 33:6, 1 Samuel 21, Ephesians 4:17-18, Colossians 2:3Intro:Good morning, everyone! We're diving into Matthew chapter 10 today, drawing wisdom from Jesus, Solomon (from Proverbs), and David (from the Psalms) to understand the fear of the Lord. We'll see how this powerful concept can actually free us from all our other fears.Key Points:Jesus' Bizarre Halftime Speech (Matthew 10):Jesus sends out His disciples with a message of the Kingdom, healing, and deliverance.But then the message takes a dark turn: "I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves."He warns of persecution, betrayal, and hatred, yet astonishingly commands, "Do not fear those who kill the body... Rather fear Him who can destroy both soul and body in hell."This isn't a typical pep talk, but a profound invitation to a greater fear that delivers from lesser ones.The Fear of the Lord: The Beginning of Wisdom:Proverbs 1:7 famously states, "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction."This "fear" isn't a cowering dread but a reverent awe that leads to friendship with God (Psalm 25:14) and is described as "clean" and "enduring forever" (Psalm 19:9).It's a treasure that brings stability, strength, and life (Isaiah 33:6, Proverbs 10:27, 14:27).Fear's Grip: Lessons from David (1 Samuel 21 & Psalm 34):Even heroes like King David succumbed to fear, running, hiding, lying, pretending madness, and forgetting God's faithfulness.Fear often leads us to strongholds – places we seek for safety that become captivity. It makes us huddle with those just like us.Psalm 34 is David's testimony and sermon after God delivered him from his fears.Fear is a faith revealer: It exposes what we boast in, what we magnify. To be free, we must boast in and magnify God (Psalm 34:1-3).A Greater Fear Delivers from Lesser Fears:Just as the fear of rejection might make you jump off a bridge, or the fear of losing a child makes you brave the ocean, a greater fear can trump lesser fears.The fear of the Lord is not a fear of Him, but a fear of going without Him—a reverent submission that keeps us in step with Him.This fear leads to refuge in God (Psalm 31:19-20), obedience, and faithfulness. It frees us from the compromise that worldly fears demand.Conclusion:The idea that "the only thing to fear is fear itself" is a lie. The one thing we should fear is the Lord. And in this divine exchange, when we fear Him most, He delivers us from all other lesser fears, leading us to abundant life and wisdom.Call to Action:As we come to the table, let's ask God to expose the fears that reveal what we've put our faith in. Let's boast in Christ's sacrifice, knowing He's made a way for us to live free from fear's influence. Receive His broken body, and ask for a healthy fear of the Lord – one that is pure, clean, endures forever, and leads to fullness of life.

We have come to a baptism moment in the reign of King David...
Teacher: Leanne Benton Revenge is the act of hurting or punishing someone in return for something they did to you. Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves.-Confucius After Saul returned from pursuing the Philistines, he was told, “David is in the Desert of En Gedi.” So Saul took three thousand able young men from all Israel and set out to look for David and his men near the Crags of the Wild Goats. He came to the sheep pens along the way; a cave was there, and Saul went in to relieve himself. David and his men were far back in the cave. The men said, “This is the day the Lord spoke of when he said to you, ‘I will give your enemy into your hands for you to deal with as you wish.'” Then David crept up unnoticed and cut off a corner of Saul's robe.-1 Samuel 24:4 David chose restraint over revenge Opportunity is not permission Afterward, David was conscience-stricken for having cut off a corner of his robe. He said to his men, “The Lord forbid that I should do such a thing to my master, the Lord's anointed, or lay my hand on him; for he is the anointed of the Lord.” With these words David sharply rebuked his men and did not allow them to attack Saul. And Saul left the cave and went his way.-1 Samuel 24:5-7 David's character was developed in the cave The Lord is my light and my salvation; Who shall I fear?The Lord is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid?He continues singing:One thing I ask from the Lord, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple. For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling; he will hide me in the shelter of his sacred tent and set me high upon a rock.-Psalm 27:1; 4-5 Then David went out of the cave and called out to Saul, “My lord the king!” When Saul looked behind him, David bowed down and prostrated himself with his face to the ground. He said to Saul, “Why do you listen when men say, ‘David is bent on harming you'? This day you have seen with your own eyes how the Lord delivered you into my hands in the cave. Some urged me to kill you, but I spared you.-1 Samuel 24:8-10 May the Lord judge between you and me. And may the Lord avenge the wrongs you have done to me, but my hand will not touch you. As the old saying goes, “From evildoers come evil deeds,” so my hand will not touch you.-1 Samuel 24:12-13 The Lord is our JudgeThe Lord is our DefenderThe Lord is our Avenger When David finished saying this, Saul asked “Is that your voice, David, my son?” And he wept aloud. “You are more righteous than I,” he said. “You have treated me well, but I have treated you badly…I know that you will surely be king and that the kingdom of Israel will be established into your hands. Now swear to me by the Lord that you will not kill off my descendants or wipe out my name from my father's family.” So David gave his oath to Saul.”-1 Samuel 24:16-22 I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.-Psalm 27:13-14 If you've got it in you, get along with everybody. Don't insist on getting even; that's not for you to do. “I'll do the judging,” says God. “I'll take care of it.”-Romans 12:18-19 - MSG We make choices all the time without even being aware of the fact we are doing this… to brood over something…to clutch on to something… to hide. We sin and then we justify not confessing our sin or making things right. Then we find a way to bury that thought so that we forget. Sin after sin compounds, moment after moment, like some kind of terrible interest on our souls.
With all the turmoil and dysfunction that's occurring in our nation right now, it's imperative that we, as Believers, reflect on King David's declaration about God's character.

Now that the account of King David has essentially come to a close, the author recording the account looks back on David's life to record some of the events that happened during David's lifetime that were not included in the chronological story line. These accounts include the execution of members of Saul's family, battles against the giant descendants of Goliath, a song of David, the exploits of David's best warriors, and the census that David ordered to survey his kingdom. While imperfect, David is sensitive to his sin to the end, seeking repentance when he realizes his error.2 Samuel 21 – 1:14 . 2 Samuel 22 – 7:16 . 2 Samuel 23 – 13:53 . 2 Samuel 24 – 21:18 .

Chapter 5-6 depict the tribe of Levi. Divrei Hayamim introduces the musical flair of the Levites and the introduction of music into the arena of the Temple, it would seem by King David.
King David's cry in Psalm 22 - 'My God, why have you forsaken me?' - reflects the deep anguish we all experience in times of abandonment and isolation. Yet David's journey from despair to declaration shows us how to advance through our darkest moments. This psalm prophetically points to Jesus, who uttered these same words on the cross before declaring 'It is finished.' When we feel planted in the dirt of our circumstances, we can still choose joy, knowing that our pain can lead to praise and that God never truly abandons us.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Wednesday morning, the 4th of June, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in the Book of Philippians 4:11. Paul says: “Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content…” I looked up the word “contentment” in the Oxford Dictionary. It is a state of peaceful happiness or satisfaction. Are you content today? Am I content today? I want to ask you a question, and the Lord has asked me the same question this very morning - how much is enough? As a young man, my dream was to own my own farm, and I thought that would bring me total contentment in life. Well, I worked myself to a standstill and eventually I owned my own farm. But I have got news for you young man. That did not bring contentment to me. I was still not satisfied! You know that King David had everything that he needed. He was the hero of Israel. As a young teenager, he slaughtered a giant with one stone. Oh yes! When he went to war, he came back with victories, the people used to worship him, praise him, sing songs to him. He had as many wives as he needed and he was still not content. If you look at Psalm 51:10, he says: “Create in me a clean heart, O God,And renew a steadfast spirit within me.Do not cast me away from Your presence,And do not take Your Holy Spirit from me.”So David had everything, but he still was not content, then he went back to the Lord and he said, “Oh Lord, renew in me a clean heart”. I received a beautiful letter from a wife who is so grateful, sent to me just last night. Her husband was very sick and went into a coma. When he was in that coma, he heard a conversation with God, and God says he was never content with what he had, but God would give him one more chance, not because of anything that he had done but because of people who had prayed for him. That young man, I can tell you right now, has been given a second chance and he is totally content with his lot in life. “Now godliness with contentment is great gain.” 1 Timothy 6:6Be content with what you have, God will take care of everything else.Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day,Goodbye.
Is it OK to bring our frustrations to God? In Psalm 10, King David does exactly that. He asks where God is when the wicked are victimizing the afflicted people in the land. This week, Pastor Connor continues our Summer in the Psalms with a look at how we should live when we are surrounded by evil and injustice. We need to adjust our expectations, pray for justice, and seek justice now, but most importantly, we need to trust in God's future justice.This week, our hosts dive deeper into the Psalms, specifically Psalm 10, Pastor Connor shares with us what he had to cut from Sunday's sermon due to time, and our hosts talk about how does one seek justice without taking on the role of judge. Oh and tune into the beginning to hear our hosts talk about what extreme stunt they would attempt if they had the opportunity.If you would like to watch the video podcast, find us on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMhDfGn0zfzi6XjcKkSVcFAFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/discovertbcInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/topekabiblechurchWebsite: https://www.discovertbc.com/
Episode OverviewJoin hosts David Niles and Adam Minahan on The Catholic Man Show as they welcome Dr. Kent Lasnoski, a theology professor and key figure in founding San Damiano College for the Trades. In this lively episode, recorded with David's godson Luke present for the first time, the trio explores the dignity of work, the role of masculinity in Catholic life, and the interplay of work, leisure, and virtue. From ultimate Frisbee to speculative theology about the Garden of Eden, this episode blends humor, faith, and deep insights into living as a Catholic man.Key Themes and DiscussionsMasculinity and Feats of Strength: The episode kicks off with a lighthearted recount of an impromptu ultimate Frisbee game, sparking a discussion on how friendly competitions—like stone-throwing or wiffle ball derbies—foster community and allow men to embrace their God-given strength. Dr. Lasnoski highlights how such activities echo the heroic spirit of figures like King David, who boasted of slaying bears and lions.The Dignity of Work: Drawing from Genesis and Pope St. John Paul II's Laborem Exercens, Dr. Lasnoski explains work as a fundamental human vocation to imitate God's creative act. Work involves earning daily bread, extending dominion over creation, and elevating culture toward God. The subjective element—who performs the work—gives it value, distinguishing human labor from robotic tasks.Work Before and After the Fall: The hosts dive into speculative theology, debating whether work existed before the Fall. Dr. Lasnoski argues that Adam's role to “tend and till” the Garden was work, but without the toil introduced by sin. Post-Fall, work became punitive due to man's interior disorder, yet it retains a redemptive quality through participation in Christ's restoration of creation.Home as a Place of Production: Dr. Lasnoski challenges the modern view of the home as merely a place of consumption (e.g., entertainment, food). Historically, homes were productive spaces where men and women collaborated in family economies. He encourages Catholics to see the home as a domestic church, fostering virtue and fruitfulness in alignment with God's plan.Work, Leisure, and Contemplation: Referencing Josef Pieper, the discussion distinguishes work (done for extrinsic goods) from leisure (done for its own sake, touching the foundation of reality). Leisure prepares the soul for contemplation and union with God, while a consumerist mindset can hinder true rest. The hosts also explore whether prayer or routine tasks like tying shoes qualify as work.Men's and Women's Roles in Work: Dr. Lasnoski reflects on the complementary roles of men and women in work, rooted in their biological and spiritual natures. Women's work often involves nurturing and making a home, while men's work is more extroverted, pouring themselves out to make creation fruitful, as seen in Genesis and John Paul II's Theology of the Body.Retirement and Multigenerational Living: The modern concept of retirement—focused on leisure without purpose—can lead to a loss of meaning. Dr. Lasnoski advocates for a retirement that continues giving oneself through service, like volunteering or mentoring. He also champions multigenerational households as a gift, fulfilling the biblical call to honor parents and enrich family life.San Damiano College for the Trades: Dr. Lasnoski shares the mission of San Damiano College, a three-year program integrating trade skills,
On our last episode we followed the trajectory of David's son Absalom, a handsome young man who had won the hearts of Israel by deception, telling those who came to King David that the king had no time for them. Absalom devises a coup to overthrow David, but his father catches wind of his plot and flees before he arrives. Today, David's men prepare for battle and meet the forces of Absalom's Israelite troops. The forest itself claims more lives than the sword, and Absalom meets his end at the hands of Joab. Later, David is restored as king, but not without personal turmoil.2 Samuel 18 - 1:16 . 2 Samuel 19 - 9:41 . 2 Samuel 20 - 19:59 .

Today's Promise: Psalm 62:1 When you wait on God, you find He is your salvation and provider of all you need. King David wrote this psalm during a particularly difficult time in his life. He was facing constant attacks from his son, who was trying to overthrow his rule as king. Instead of gathering his army and advisors, the first thing he did was go to the Lord. David understood that trusting in men was foolish. It was not about his strength or wisdom but about God's deliverance. David had a quiet confidence that God would see him through any difficulty.
Running on Empty “You can't pour out what God hasn't poured in.” Pastor Michael explores the tension between feeling spiritually empty and God's promise of an overflowing cup in Psalm 23. Through humor, personal stories, and the biblical account of King David's darkest moments, this message addresses why we often feel like we're "running on empty" spiritually and how God wants to fill us to overflowing. Key Topics Covered The Fuel Light Challenge Opening illustration about internet challenges and the "Fuel Light Challenge" How we live spiritually like we drive on empty - pushing through warning signs The cycle of telling ourselves "things will slow down after this week" Understanding Psalm 23:5 Ancient Near Eastern hospitality customs The significance of an overflowing cup as God's generous provision David's promise: "My cup runs over" vs. our reality of feeling empty The Story of The Broken King King David's betrayal by his son Absalom David's flight from Jerusalem and his moment of despair The birth of Psalm 42 in David's wilderness experience How David moved from "Why is my soul cast down?" to hope in God When Your Cup Runs Dry Common areas where we feel empty: money, energy, and timeThe danger of carrying burdens God never asked us to carry Understanding God's pruning process in our lives Recognizing our human limitations (even Jesus needed rest) Key Quotes "You can't pour out what God hasn't poured in" "God does not ask you to pour out what you don't have. He's inviting you to be filled" "Instead of being too blessed to be stressed, we are too tired to be inspired" "There are no heroes when your cup runs dry. There is only an empty cup and God to fill it" "God can work with breadcrumbs of time" Scripture References Primary Text: Psalm 23:1-6 (KJV) Supporting Passages: Psalm 42:1-3, 5 Ephesians 2:10 Matthew 11:28 Practical Applications Start small: worship in the car, read one verse while coffee brews Look for cracks in your day to fill with God Be intentional about finding time for spiritual filling Ask God what needs to go - what you're carrying that He never asked you to carry Bring your empty cup to God instead of trying to shake drops from it Personal Stories Shared Pastor's experience with work stress and finding time for worship during commutes Preparing sermons during lunch breaks while eating reheated pasta The ongoing struggle with time, energy, and balancing ministry with secular work Historical Context Background on King David as shepherd, warrior, king, and songwriter David's authorship of approximately half of the 150 PsalmsThe cultural significance of Psalm 23 over 3,000 years For Further Reflection Where in your life do you feel like you're "running on empty"? What burdens might you be carrying that God never asked you to carry? How can you create small moments throughout your day to be filled by God? What needs to be pruned from your life to make room for what God wants to pour in? This message is part of the "Overflowing" series at ReCreate Church, exploring how God wants to fill our lives to abundance rather than leaving us running on spiritual fumes.

Fake it till you Break it explores how this popular phrase damages our spiritual lives despite containing kernels of truth. This message examines the origins of this philosophy in early 20th century psychology and self-help culture, revealing why it's particularly dangerous for Christians. While projecting confidence occasionally helps in professional settings or difficult days, consistently faking our abilities, emotions, or spiritual maturity leads to harmful consequences in work, relationships, and our emotional health. The Apostle Paul modeled authentic faith in Romans 7, openly acknowledging his struggles with sin rather than pretending to have achieved spiritual perfection. King David's attempt to fake righteousness after his sin with Bathsheba demonstrates the internal torment that comes from living inauthentically. The liberating truth is that we cannot overcome sin through our own efforts—we need Jesus, who never faked anything but perfectly fulfilled God's standards on our behalf. This message provides practical guidance for breaking free from performance-based Christianity through honest prayer, confession, and building authentic relationships with fellow believers. Discover the freedom that comes when we stop pretending and embrace God's grace. Keywords: authenticity, Christian living, spiritual growth, Romans 7, King David, confession, accountability, freedom in Christ, overcoming sin, spiritual maturity, honesty, Christian community, grace, forgiveness, spiritual transformation, Christian relationships, prayer life, biblical truth, Paul's teachings, Jesus Christ.

6/1/25 For the past several weeks we have looked into many stories from the incredible life of King David. In this week's message, inspired by Psalm 37, we take a look through some of the most important life lessons from David which would shape the his message to all who would come after him.

Reading about King David and The Love , amazing love that he displayed. And Jesus a display of Father God , Son and Holy Spirit Amazingly displayed of Love!Now it's our turn how shall we express our love? How shall I? The ball is on our court how shall we display our love. ?
Psalm 62 teaches us not to waste our waiting, but to find purpose in the seasons and situations where we are called to wait upon God. Here we find King David enrolled in the school of waiting: learning to trust, rest, and hope in the Lord. The title of our sermon is drawn from the heading in the ESV translation, “My Soul Waits for God Alone.”
In II Samuel 6, King David attempts to bring the Ark of the Covenant—the symbol of God's presence and glory—back to Jerusalem. It had been neglected, and David's desire was to restore the centrality of God's presence in the life of the nation. However, the journey is marked by both failure and triumph. From this story, we learn what it takes to restore God's glory in our lives and in our worship.Be part of what God is doing at Mount Holly!

Psalm 51 - What is Repentance? : Stephen Feinstein - It is important that we know what true biblical repentance looks like in both of the life of the believer- and for those who are dead in sins and trespasses. We see the best example of this in the Psalm of King David where he demonstrates biblical repentance.
Teacher: Adam Barnett Saul had a spear in his hand and he hurled it, saying to himself, “I'll pin David to the wall.” But David eluded him twice. - 1 Samuel 18:10b-11 David took his men with him and went out and killed two hundred Philistines and brought back their foreskins. They counted out the full number to the king so that David might become the king's son-in-law. Then Saul gave him his daughter Michal in marriage. – 1 Samuel 18:27 “What have I done? What is my crime? How have I wronged your father, that he is trying to kill me?” – 1 Samuel 20:1 “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me.” - Psalm 23:4 Even as a fugitive, David was not forsaken. God blessed him with a friend. After David had finished talking with Saul, Jonathan became one in spirit with David, and he loved him as himself. From that day Saul kept David with him and did not let him return home to his family. And Jonathan made a covenant with David because he loved him as himself. Jonathan took off the robe he was wearing and gave it to David, along with his tunic, and even his sword, his bow and his belt. – 1 Samuel 20:1-4 1 - Jonathan's soul was bound together with David's soul. “Jonathan saw that David viewed life from the same divine perspective (God is sovereign and does as He pleases, and all of life is to be lived for Him). And when he saw this, his soul reflexively clung to David's. Christian friendship exceeds anything that exists between nonbelievers — for such a friendship is founded on a supernatural mutuality of soul. The Holy Spirit makes your souls chorus the same cries. You assent to the same authority. You know the same God. You are going the same way. You long for the same things. You dream mutual dreams. You yearn for the same experiences of holiness and worship. Jonathan's soul bound itself to David's soul. You know when this happens, and it is wonderful." – Kent Hughes 2 - Jonathan put spiritual kinship over personal gain. “True friends don't compete. They complete.” - Tim Keller 3 - Jonathan's love was sacrificial and dangerous. “Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.” — John 15:13
As a Christian, it is possible to have correct thinking (orthodoxy) and not live by it. James wrote, “To one who knows the right thing to do and does not do it, to him it is sin” (Jam 4:17). There are times when believers know God's Word, but because of negative volition, do not apply it. Biblically speaking, it is possible for believers to commit any sin an unbeliever can commit. For example, Aaron led the Israelites to worship an idol (Ex 32:1-6). Gideon made an ephod which became an object of worship in Israel (Judg 8:27). Samson slept with prostitutes (Judg 16:1-4). In fact, there are examples in Scripture of believers who fell into habitual sin, in which they repeated the same sin over and over. This did not cause them to forfeit their salvation, but hindered the work of God in an area of their life. Abraham had a recurring habit of lying about his relationship with his wife, Sarah. In Genesis 12, fearing for his life, Abraham told Sarah, “Please say that you are my sister so that it may go well with me because of you, and that I may live on account of you” (Gen 12:13). Later, in Genesis 20, he did it again, telling Abimelech, “She is my sister” (Gen 20:2). After God intervened and saved Sarah, Abraham admitted that he had instructed her, saying, “Everywhere we go, say of me, ‘He is my brother'” (Gen 20:13b). This pattern of behavior reveals a habitual sin. Longman states, “Here we have an example of a habitual sin. After the first occurrence when he went to Egypt (Gen 12:10–20), he knew that God was displeased with his behavior, but he continued to struggle with his self-protective lying until at least this point in his life.”[1] For decades, King David practiced the sin of polygamy contrary to the Law of Moses, which specifically commanded the king of Israel, that “he shall not multiply wives for himself” (Deut 17:17). This command was meant to prevent the king from being led astray, as was common among pagan rulers who amassed wives for political alliances, wealth, and personal indulgence. Despite this clear directive, David engaged in polygamy throughout his life. His first recorded wife was Michal, the daughter of Saul (1 Sam 18:27), and while fleeing from Saul, he married Abigail and Ahinoam (1 Sam 25:39-43). After becoming king, he continued this pattern, marrying Bathsheba following his grievous sins of adultery and murder (2 Sam 11:2-27). Additionally, 2 Samuel 3:2-5 names six other wives—Maacah, Haggith, Abital, and Eglah, along with Abigail and Ahinoam—and Scripture further records that “David took more concubines and wives from Jerusalem, after he came from Hebron” (2 Sam 5:13). This reveals that his polygamy was not a momentary lapse but an ongoing practice in violation of God's law. Solomon is another example of a believer falling into habitual sin. God called Solomon “My son” (2 Sam 7:14), heard his prayer (2 Ch 1:8-10), made him king over Israel (2 Ch 1:11), granted him “wisdom and knowledge” (2 Ch 1:12), used him to write three books of the Bible (Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Song of Solomon), directed him to build the temple in Jerusalem over a period of seven years (1 Ki 6:38), made him ruler of Israel for forty years (1 Ki 11:42), and we are told that “Solomon loved the LORD and walked in the statutes of his father David” (1 Ki 3:3a). These are all signs of a true believer. However, according to Scripture, Solomon disobeyed God's command for the king of Israel, which stated, “He shall not multiply wives for himself” (Deut 17:17a). Despite this directive, Solomon practiced polygamy, having “seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines, and his wives turned his heart away” (1 Ki 11:3). Solomon's disobedience was not a singular event but extended over many years, persisting until the end of his days. By the conclusion of his life, Solomon had forsaken his wisdom, as “his wives turned his heart away after other gods” (1 Kings 11:4a). Because Solomon consented to their corrupting pagan influence, he was “not wholly devoted to the LORD his God” (1 Ki 11:4b). Because he had negative volition, “Solomon did what was evil in the sight of the LORD” (1 Ki 11:6). Solomon's evil practices demonstrate that a true believer—who cannot forfeit his salvation—can completely turn away from the Lord and commit himself to a lifestyle of sin. After Solomon turned away from the Lord and worshipped idols, Scripture reveals God severely disciplined him for his sin (1 Ki 11:11-43). Dr. Steven R.

Obedience is better than sacrifice... Israel's first king, Saul, rebels against the commandments of the Lord; forfeiting his kingship. Though God repents of making Saul king, he promises through the prophet Samuel to raise up another king after his own heart, which will be King David.Nathan Pearl teaches through 1 Samuel about the disobedience of King Saul.

When we last left King David, he had slept with another man's wife, and when it came to light that she was pregnant, he designed a conspiracy to kill Uriah in order to cover up his own adultery. Today Nathan comes to David with a word from the Lord. Because of his sin, the Lord says that he will take David's wives and give them to another before all of Israel, and by the end of our next reading, that prophecy comes true. David's sons begin to perpetuate their father's wickedness, as Amnon lusts after Tamar, his own half-sister. When David discovers that Tamar has been raped by Amnon, he is furious, but does nothing to intervene.2 Samuel 12 - 1:17 . 2 Samuel 13 - 9:01 . 2 Samuel 14 - 18:10 .

Everyone is fighting. No one seems to be winning. Do you feel it? I don't have the solution to this problem, and I don't have all the answers, but I know someone who does… It's God. The ancient songwriter, King David, he recognized the big power of God compared to the smallness of our human problems. When he wrote this: When I look at the night sky and I see the work of your fingers Lord— the moon and the stars you set in place— what are mere mortals that you should even think about them, human beings that you should care about them? Amazingly, God does care about us. You're invited to know the author of life and peace, personally. He has all the wisdom, all the knowledge. We will never know it all, but we can know Him. Always remember, there is hope with God. I'm Andrew Palau. Scripture Reference: Psalm 8:3-4 radio.hopewithgod.com
King David desired to bring the ark of the covenant home to his new house in Jerusalem. This was a good thing. But the way David went about it, displeased the Lord. How many times do we have issues we deal with, and we go about it the wrong way? In this message, I look …
It's human nature to want to feel special—to seek recognition, a promotion, or likes on social media. While many love to magnify themselves, on Truth For Life, Alistair Begg considers King David's more appropriate response when promised a forever dynasty. ----------------------------------------- • Click here and look for "FROM THE SERMON" to stream or read the full message. • This program is part of the series ‘A Study in 1 and 2 Samuel, Volume 6' • Learn more about our current resource, request your copy with a donation of any amount.

Now that David has been recognized as king, it's time for him to begin to establish his kingdom. David consults the Lord before he goes into battle, and prioritizes the worship of the Lord as a matter of great importance. With much fanfare, he moves the ark of the covenant to Jerusalem, and worships in a very un-regal fashion. King David expresses his desire to make a house of worship for the Lord, rather than a tent. God, who has never needed a house, says that rather He will build a David's house, establishing the kingdom of the Son of David forever. :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by Bobby Brown, Katelyn Pridgen, Eric Williamson & the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org
