In 1293, King Edward I finally got what he wanted: the Isle of Wight. He'd been trying to take it for decades. He had to wait until its owner, Isabella de Fortibus, was on her deathbed to get it. And even then, she made him pay for it. Isabella de Fortibus was a 13th century countess who became one of the wealthiest people in England after a series of family tragedies left her controlling Devon, the Aumale estates in Yorkshire, and the strategically crucial Isle of Wight. Two kings, Henry III and Edward I, spent years trying to force her to remarry and hand over her lands. She said no. Repeatedly. Legally. One suitor actually tried to abduct her, and she bribed a prior and fled to Wales to escape him. She also owned her own personal copy of the statutes of the realm. In the 13th century. A laywoman. And she used it to win dozens of legal battles protecting what was hers.

This week, Pastor Jim walks us through 1 Samuel 24, where David has the opportunity to take revenge on Saul but chooses mercy instead. Rather than taking matters into his own hands, David trusts God's timing and responds to evil with humility and grace. This powerful moment reminds us that faith often means surrendering revenge and choosing righteousness, even when it's difficult. We're challenged to trust God as our defender and respond with goodness in the face of hurt.Text: 1 Samuel 24 Recorded: May 24, 2026

What happens when a king refuses to be fathered by God? In this episode, we step into the historical world of Isaiah 7 by tracing the story through the political and spiritual timeline of 2 Kings 16:1–18. Rather than treating Isaiah's encounter with King Ahaz in isolation, we reconstruct the sequence of events surrounding the Syro-Ephraimite crisis—when Syria and Northern Israel threaten Judah—and examine how Ahaz responds under pressure.As the narrative unfolds, a troubling pattern emerges. Instead of trusting the Lord, Ahaz reaches out to Assyria for help, forging a political alliance that becomes something far more corrupt: a counterfeit father-son relationship between a king and a sovereign. In a shocking act of allegiance, Ahaz models himself not after the God of Israel, but after the king of Assyria—reordering worship, reshaping the temple, and redefining his identity as a son of another King.Against this backdrop, Isaiah offers Ahaz a sign: a young woman will conceive and bear a son, and before the child matures, the very enemies Ahaz fears—Syria and Northern Israel—will be laid waste by Assyria. This sign is not merely predictive—it contains a developmental dynamic. It places Ahaz within a timeline of trust, inviting him to align himself with God's unfolding purposes rather than grasp for security in an alliance with Assyria against Syria and Northern Israel.But Ahaz refuses.In this episode, we explore how Ahaz functions as a tragic foil—a failed son of David who rejects the Father's provision, protection, and pathway for growth. His story exposes a deeper pattern in Israel's kingship: a repeated inability to live faithfully within the relational framework of the Davidic covenant.And then we turn to Jesus.Where Ahaz grasped for security, Jesus entrusted himself to the Father. Where Ahaz aligned with empire, Jesus walked the path of obedient sonship. As the true Son of David, Jesus embodies what every king before him failed to become—a fully faithful, fully participatory Son who lives with God in perfect dependence and trust.In this light, Jesus is not just the fulfillment of prophecy—he is the completion of a developmental trajectory. He becomes the true “sign” that God is with His people—not merely in promise, but in lived, embodied reality.Key Passages:2 Kings 16:1-10Isaiah 7:10-16Matthew 1:20-25Explainer⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Video⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on how to use ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.biblehub.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.blueletterbible.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Leave us a question or comment at our ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠website podcast page⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

By Matthew Curry - In this sermon we look at the life of King Saul and how he allowed his emotions, lack of relationship with God, and the four enemies of faith to control his life, and ultimately lead to his downfall.

Brother Darrell Mercer brought the message, "Two Kings" to the congregation at Faith Fellowship Church on Wednesday May 6, 2026. This is the eighth message in the "Life of David" series. Be blessed as you listen.

The Generous Life Pt. 2 | A Tale of Two Kings What happens after the blessing? That's where generosity is truly tested. In this message, we dive into Genesis 14 and the powerful encounter between Abram, the king of Sodom, and Melchizedek—the king of Salem. Two kings. Two voices. Two paths. One says: “Give to me and keep the rest.” The other comes blessing, bringing bread and wine, revealing the heart of a generous God. This sermon unpacks a key truth: generosity isn't something we do—it's who we are. And ultimately, it's not a requirement… it's a response. If you've ever wrestled with trusting God in your finances, this message will challenge and encourage your faith. Scriptures: Genesis 14, Proverbs 11:24–25, 2 Corinthians 9:7–8, Hebrews 7 Key Thought: There's always a choice—will you trust the King of Sodom or the King of Salem? — Subscribe for more messages and content from Kingdom Church

Samuel was a prophet who saw many things take place, most notably, the up and down life of King Saul, and the adventures of a young man names David. As we end the series today, we see the final days of the life of Saul, and we can't help but reflect on a life that could have been so much more than it turned out to be.

In First Samuel chapter thirty, we see David do that very thing. This is Bridging the Gap with pastor Lloyd Pulley. If you find yourself in a precarious position, will you seek God's wisdom, or will you go it alone? 

The King of England and the King of Trolls. King Charles III visited the White House yesterday and spoke to Congress. The Left all stood and clapped for the King of England. Then they got mad at a tweet. When it comes to involvement in foreign countries, America just can't win. If we help, we're imperialist, if we don't help, we're also bad somehow? Either way, Zambia has AIDS and somehow that's America's fault. Al Gore was wrong about climate change, but he's back with a new warning. How much is it going to cost us this time?

[00:30] Two Kings (22 minutes) A White House X post featured a picture of King Charles and President Trump with the caption “Two Kings." Does the cozy visit between these two heads of state signal a permanent thawing of relations? [22:00] Comey Indicted ‘86 47' (33 minutes) The Department of Justice is going after former FBI Director James Comey for a social media post of sea shells—but not for the dozens of other treasonous crimes he is responsible for.

Trump 2.0 had an amazing release day, thank you for all the support. If you haven't already, please go out and buy Trump 2.0 today! The White House and President Trump hosted King Charles and Queen Camilla as they visited the United States. Not missing a beat in making liberal heads explode with the caption "TWO KINGS" on the picture of President Trump next to King Charles. The white tie event was a lavish and elegant dinner in which 6 Supreme Court justices were in attendance. Mollie Hemingway's new book Alito focuses on Justice Samuel Alito, whom she considers the most Conservative voice on the Supreme Court, a model for Americans and a man of great principle. Today she gives a first hand account of the various personalities of the Supreme Court justices and a glimpse into their interpersonal dynamics. Even though the liberal voices on the Supreme Court slow walked their dissent on the voting rights act decision, it was struck down today in a 6-3 vote. The decision means that Louisiana's map was illegally drawn to create a majority-Black congressional district. These districts tend to favor Democrats and this decision could pave the way nationwide for Republicans to redraw race-based maps.

A Tale of Two Kings Hebrews 7:1-28 7 For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of the Most High God, met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him, 2 and to him Abraham apportioned a tenth part of everything. He is first, by translation of his name, king of righteousness, and then he is also king of Salem, that is, king of peace. 3 He is without father or mother or genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but resembling the Son of God he continues a priest forever. 4 See how great this man was to whom Abraham the patriarch gave a tenth of the spoils! 5 And those descendants of Levi who receive the priestly office have a commandment in the law to take tithes from the people, that is, from their brothers, though these also are descended from Abraham. 6 But this man who does not have his descent from them received tithes from Abraham and blessed him who had the promises. 7 It is beyond dispute that the inferior is blessed by the superior. 8 In the one case tithes are received by mortal men, but in the other case, by one of whom it is testified that he lives. 9 One might even say that Levi himself, who receives tithes, paid tithes through Abraham, 10 for he was still in the loins of his ancestor when Melchizedek met him. 11 Now if perfection had been attainable through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need would there have been for another priest to arise after the order of Melchizedek, rather than one named after the order of Aaron? 12 For when there is a change in the priesthood, there is necessarily a change in the law as well. 13 For the one of whom these things are spoken belonged to another tribe, from which no one has ever served at the altar. 14 For it is evident that our Lord was descended from Judah, and in connection with that tribe Moses said nothing about priests. 15 This becomes even more evident when another priest arises in the likeness of Melchizedek, 16 who has become a priest, not on the basis of a legal requirement concerning bodily descent, but by the power of an indestructible life. 17 For it is witnessed of him, “You are a priest forever, after the order of Melchizedek.” 18 For on the one hand, a former commandment is set aside because of its weakness and uselessness 19 (for the law made nothing perfect); but on the other hand, a better hope is introduced, through which we draw near to God. -- 20 And it was not without an oath. For those who formerly became priests were made such without an oath, 21 but this one was made a priest with an oath by the one who said to him: “The Lord has sworn and will not change his mind, ‘You are a priest forever.' ” 22 This makes Jesus the guarantor of a better covenant. 23 The former priests were many in number, because they were prevented by death from continuing in office, 24 but he holds his priesthood permanently, because he continues forever. 25 Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them. 26 For it was indeed fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, innocent, unstained, separated from sinners, and exalted above the heavens. 27 He has no need, like those high priests, to offer sacrifices daily, first for his own sins and then for those of the people, since he did this once for all when he offered up himself. 28 For the law appoints men in their weakness as high priests, but the word of the oath, which came later than the law, appoints a Son who has been made perfect forever. I. God's plan provided for a new king. II. God's purpose promoted Christ. III. God's passion for us perfected salvation.

The cities in Charles Dickens' novel were London and Paris. I'd like to borrow that title—but with a slight twist, because today's passage could easily be called: "A Tale of Two Kings". Because in 1 Kings 14, we meet the first two rulers of the newly divided kingdom of Israel—one in the north, one in the south. And their stories are not just historical curiosities. They are warnings. They are lessons in leadership, obedience, and consequences. Their story is one we need to know so that we don't repeat their mistakes….Support the showFollow and support me on Patreon.Jeremy McCandless | Creating Podcasts and Bible Study Resources | PatreonTo receive my weekly newsletter and keep up to date with all five of my podcasts, subscribe at:Jeremy McCandless | SubstackCheck out my other Podcasts.The Bible Project: https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.comHistory of the Christian Church: https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.comThe L.I.F.E.

Best Of 2GG: Tanya at Two Kings Casino by Two Girls and a Guy

In the book of Daniel two kings give testimony to what it meant to meet the Living God whom Daniel served so faithfully.

Pastor Levi Matteson talks about how nobody drifts away from God overnight. We drift through small compromises until what was near becomes what we're in. But God knows how to rescue His people (2 Pet. 2:9). Including 1. A RIGHTEOUS MAN...WITH A TORMENTED SOUL (2 Pet. 2:7–9), 2. THE FIRST STEP OF DRIFT: CHOOSING BY SIGHT, NOT FAITH (Gen. 13:8–13), 3. THE DRIFT IN ONE LINE (Gen. 13:12), 4. WHEN THE BLAST ZONE HITS, “NEAR” PEOPLE GET SWEPT UP (Gen. 14:1–16; key v. 12), 5. GRACE BREAKS IN: SOMEONE STRONGER COMES FOR YOU (Gen. 14:14–16), 6. TWO KINGS, TWO OFFERS, TWO “GOSPELS” (Gen. 14:17–24). This episode of the Evangel Houghton podcast is a Sunday message from Evangel Community Church, Houghton, Michigan, January 18, 2026.

Every life has a throne—and only one king can sit on it. In this message from Life House, we explore the hidden heroes of Christmas through the story of the Magi, King Herod, and the birth of Jesus. Discover how surrender leads to strength, why God still moves heaven and earth to reach people, and how a true encounter with Jesus can change your direction, purpose, and future.

The Tale of Two KingsPreacher: Chris LamontSunday MorningDate: 28th December 2025Passage: Matthew 2:1-16

Matthew 2:1-12

Irony – a state of affairs or events that seems deliberately contrary to what one expects See the irony in these… 1.Two Decrees v.1-3 2.Two Parents v.4-5 3.Two Moments v.6 The first moment is biological The second moment is theological 4.Two Kings  

As we prepare for Christmas, we contrast the story of two kings: Jesus and King Herod. The importance of this story traces back to Moses in the Old Testament and the longing for a Messiah to the fulfillment of prophecy in Jesus' birth in Bethlehem. We explore the resistance to Jesus' message, the illusion of control in our own lives, and the enduring relevance of Christ's kingdom. Speaker: Greg Holder

I'm unpacking the second part of the mystery of The Two Kings Template. We're looking at the template of King Hezekiah. How does this template explain Trump's baffling behavior dealing with Islam? What about his strange alliances with Qatar and terrorists? What does this tell us about the Presidents that will come later? Can this explain Joe Biden?Watch here for PART 1:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJvOvulCLW8&pp=2AbyAQ%3D%3DTRIVITA: Use my TRIVITA link to get started on your wellness journey: https://bit.ly/restored-healthORCALL: 800-991-7116 and use gift card number: RSCBSQRJ PIN: 5398 Covenant Eyes: If you want to protect yourself and your loved ones from the dangers of p*rn, getCovenant Eyes: https://bit.ly/Restore-CovenantUSE CODE RESTORE30 at checkout to get your first 30 days FREE when you use the link ✅Other ways foryou to support the ministry:
