   Number 1: Not Every Open Door Is God’s Will: David 20 | Pastor Allen Nolan

   Not every open door is God’s will. In 1 Samuel 24, David is given what appears to be the perfect opportunity to kill Saul, end his years as a fugitive, and take the throne God had promised him. David’s men believed God had delivered Saul into his hands—but David recognized that the opportunity was actually a test. In Episode 20 of this verse-by-verse series on the life of David, Pastor Allen Nolan explains why David refused to sin in order to obtain what God had promised. David was willing to wait for God to give him the kingdom rather than take it through disobedience.

   Number 5: The Decline of Saul: When Disobedience Destroys a Leader | David Episode 5 w/ Pastor Allen Nolan

   This message traces the tragic decline of King Saul and answers a crucial question: if David sinned just as badly as Saul, why was Saul rejected by God and David called “a man after God’s own heart”? Drawing from 1 Samuel 10–16 and 28, as well as Deuteronomy and 2 Chronicles, Pastor Allen walks through three major failures in Saul’s life: - Offering sacrifices his own way instead of God’s way - Partially obeying God’s command to destroy the Amalekites - Turning to a forbidden necromancer when God stopped answering him We see how Saul’s disobedience, excuses, blame-shifting, and refusal to fully submit to God’s authority led to the Spirit departing from him and God choosing David instead.
