What do you do when someone else is standing in the way of God’s plan for your life? After King Saul’s death, David could have seized power, but instead, he chose to wait on God’s timing. Meanwhile, Saul’s commander, Abner, installs Saul’s son, Ish-bosheth, as king over Israel, igniting a civil war. David rules over Judah, refusing to force his way to the throne. This episode explores the dangers of ambition and self-promotion and the consequences of seeking power without God’s blessing. David grieves Saul’s death, honors his enemies, and trusts God’s promises. While Israel fights among itself, David remains patient, knowing that God’s plan will unfold in His perfect time. Are you facing obstacles that seem to delay God’s promises in your life? Learn from David’s example of humility and perseverance. This lesson will challenge you to trust God’s sovereignty, even when the waiting is hard and others seem to be working against you.
