David, should not have lingered.
Conviction (Ignored) (11:3-4)
David received warning from his servant, but he had put God out of his mind and was too full of passion to listen.
“she is the wife of Uriah.”
Both her father and her husband were part of David’s mighty men.
Her grandfather was David’s chief counselor.
He should have known better, but he was blinded by his lust.
Cover-Up (5-13)
Just as he sent for her, now she sends word to him, she’s pregnant.
This was a chance to confess and repent, instead he sought to cover his sin.
David concocts a plan to cover his sin, but Uriah has more integrity than David at this point.
He will not enjoy pleasure while his men are in the battlefield.
Conspiracy (14-27)
David’s plan ends in conspiracy to kill Uriah.
It results in the death of many of his men and the involvement of Joab in his murderous plot.
David thinks that everything is taken care of, but it was “evil in the eyes of the Lord.”
It was “evil in the eyes of the Lord.”
David’s fellowship with the Lord was broken and he entered a period of emptiness in his soul.
Psalm 32:
Thanksgiving helps to prevent us from falling into sin.
