Abounding Grace

We’re making our way through Acts in a series called, "Be the Church." In your service of the Lord have you ever felt totally inadequate or maybe due to a lack of education you feel like you’re unqualified to be in ministry? Today we’ll meet a couple of apostles that were uneducated and untrained, but God used them greatly! And people could tell they had been with Jesus.

Whether you’re a pastor, Sunday School teacher, volunteer in the nursery, or serving on the mission field, we all go through times when we’re tired in the work and maybe even of the work. Along comes Satan with one of his favorite tools, in the tool bag, and drives us to discouragement. That’s the place David found himself, in First Samuel 27. We’ll take a look at his desire to escape, today on Abounding Grace as pastor Ed Taylor continues through First Samuel!

Today on Abounding Grace we’ll draw attention to some of King Saul’s final words, “I played the fool and errored exceedingly!” He made a series of bad decisions late in life, that we can learn from, and can serve to help us trust in God from start to finish.

Evangelism rarely comes easy, and at times the environment can be hostile and intimidating. Such was the case for Peter and John in Acts chapter four, and yet in the power of the Holy Spirit they said what needed to be said with boldness! Today on Abounding Grace we’ll receive great encouragement for those times when we’re called to share the Gospel.

We’ll be continuing a message we started last time called, “It’s Yours If You’ll Wait for it!” When we left you, King Saul and 3,000 of his men were on the hunt for David, with the sole intention of killing him. But David suddenly finds himself in a position, where he had a golden opportunity to kill sleeping Saul. Instead, he refrains from the great temptation.

We’ve all had terrible things happen to us, and some from the hands of another. In such instances, it’s easy for us to want to take matters into our own hands, and retaliate. We’ll be encouraged to wait on the Lord and leave it in His hands. That’s the encouragement ahead on Abounding Grace.

Pastor Ed Taylor is about to open a very encouraging passage found in First Samuel 23, that I know will really speak to you! To bring you up to speed, King Saul and his men are chasing after David, wanting to destroy him. It appears David is trapped. But we’ll learn today where he found safety, it was in the rock of escape! Pastor Ed will bring this all down to a very personal level, and reveal there’s a rock of escape for us too!
