In our text today, Pastor Mark will be teaching us not to be like Ishbosheth. Ishbosheth was weak because he trusted in man rather than trusting in God. Many times we grow impatient waiting on the Lord to answer our prayers and we take matters into our own hands by trusting in ourselves, or another person. This is the worst thing we can possibly do, because we are told to trust in the Lord with all our hearts and to not lean on our own understanding. We are to acknowledge God in all our way's and He will direct our paths the Bible says. We can count on God to work all things out for our good if we love Him.
