2 Samuel 13 Lust and porn will lead to consequences and even destruction..

There may not be something that God sees more beautiful than that of true repentance. David, a high handed sinner was also an incredible model of repentance and worship.

God forgave and restored David. He can do the same for you..

David sees a beautiful women and instead of turning away allows his heart and mind to be carried away by his lust and it leads to destruction.

God has a plan to usher in peace and prosperity in Israel in Davi’d day and as a result his continues to have victory over his enemies. At the end of the audio I also discuss the danger of misperception and something called confirmation bias.

David displays loyalty to a crippled man, the son of Jonathon, to show his loyalty to Jonathon.

David receives abundant victory over his enemies. Israel’s grand day of peace and prosperity is coming to pass. When it happens will they follow God? Will we?

Psalm 69 No matter what valley you're in God is there to help you up the hill.

2 Samuel 7 The near and far fulfillment of David and Jesus’ Kingdom.

This is a very interesting chapter. In this chapter we see David make a mistake in not slowing down to seek God and his Word and as a result he does something in his own strength irreverently. Then we also see in this chapter someone come agains him when he does not make a mistake and in that case David knows the feedback is not of God. It is so important we learn both of these lessons.

Many times we need to both slow down, seek God and when we make a mistake learn from it and the move forward the right way.

However, also sometimes people will come against you and say you are making a mistake when really the mistake is in them. In those cases we have to have the wisdom and confidence that their feedback is not from God.

Both of these issues are very relevant and important to our lives.

David here becomes King over all of Israel. God is faithful to his prophetic promise. David then takes more wives. This was a mistake and went against the instruction from Deuteronomy 17. We will see from Deut. 17 what makes for a great King and what makes for a great Christian today.
