What we have here is a horrible mess of a situation. Way back, 15-some years ago, Samuel, the prophet of God, anointed David, the youngest son of Jesse, as king. God’s chosen man for the job. Saul was out; David was in. But it took a while. David patiently waited. Saul, the momentary king, tried to kill…

Today we are wrapping up this six part study of the Good News called, “Life in 6 Words.” We get these six words by using the word “Gospel” as an acrostic. As a way of review, let’s walk through these six words one final time… G - God created us to be with Him. ( Genesis 1-2 ) O - Our sins separate us…

2 Samuel 2-4 But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil. In every one of our lives there needs to be a continual anointing from God.

If you have your Bible (and I hope you do), please turn with me to 2 Samuel 4 . Keep your Bible open in front of you this morning. It will do you good to have your Bible with you so you can follow along as we go. 2 Samuel 4 is a short chapter. 12 verses. That’s all there is; that’s all the text we’re…

In the fifth sermon of the series, we explore the challenge of trusting God when His plan isn’t clear or aligns differently from our own expectations. Drawing from Proverbs 3:5-6 and Isaiah 55:8-9, we emphasize that God’s ways and timing are higher than ours, and trusting Him requires faith beyond understanding. We’ll examine how trust deepens our relationship with God, moving us from head knowledge to personal experience, and discuss how trials often strengthen our faith. By embracing God’s plan, we find peace, guidance, and unexpected blessings, even in the midst of uncertainty.

As we continue on in our study through 2 Samuel, I am struck (though I am not surprised) by how God’s Word speaks today. Even in 2 Samuel—this book documenting the history of God’s people in ancient Israel—God is speaking today. God’s Word is instructive and inspiring; there’s no part of it that isn’t.…

But the reason that it’s named the Bible Character Study is because we’ll be focusing…
