Product of a Promise
In 2011 I had pleaded with the Lord to make as David… I had come to learn David had moments in which he was not the squeaky clean person I had known him to be.
David married multiple women, committed adultery, lied to the priests, commits murder, does a terrible job raising his kids, there were so many reasons for God to not choose David.
He did have one thing going for him and we can argue it is the most important thing one can have.
Even in the midst of his mess he is known as a man after God’s own heart.
While there were things he did that I did not do, I thought if God names him in such a way He could do the same for me.
This is a prayer that was prayed in the quiet secret place, when it was spoken over me the pastor didnt know me and simply spoke the word the Lord gave to him.
To be known as a person after God’s own heart You must completely surrender to God
Saul’s Recap
Saul’s Description
Tall, Handsome, from Money
Kingship
Kingdom was supposed to last forever
Issue
Insecurity, (Hid in the baggage) Led to pride, and arrogance
Sought after the Approval of People
Caused the people to sin
Rejected
Insecurity led to foolishness rooted in Pride and Arrogance (please love me)
Rejected the word of the Lord
Lord rejected him
David
Description
Ruddy, Sheep Farmer, Handsome, Conceived in Sin…
Likely throw away he is not initially presented to Samuel as an option
Ex 4:10-11 God;
Calls
Anoints
Equips
Appoints
Sends
Issues
many
Promise Fulfilled
Sought after God’s Presence
Did not hide from
All Summed up by this statement… “Did what was the will of God”
Selected and Qualified by the Lord
Samuel looked the outward appearance of David’s brothers
Rebuked and told to look at the heart
When he anoints David it would be another 8 years before he would become king.
The Road would be marked with many mistakes but he remained surrendered to God.
Examining David’s Prayer
Trust in the Lord over the Self
We know he rejects Saul’s Armor… Lives into His Calling
Trusts the Lord is the only one who can save him from himself
Knows the futility of his own desires and will
His sin hurt others but none greater than God
Desires forgiveness not for himself but that God would be glorified
Acknowledge the Condition
The human condition is to live in the identities we are given
Self deprication
Wants to be instructed by the Lord
David knows The only one who can free him from the internal self is the Lord
Purge me with Hyssop
Confess in the Work of the Lord
Understands the self inflicted wound and the work of the Lord to correct him… chooses not to hide
Understanding his nature asks the Lord to take away his desire to act against Him
Wrestles with the Lord and contends for not just forgiveness to be renewed
Contends to stay in His Presence
Salvation comes from the Lord
Willing Spirit
The Will of God Over His Own
He longs for the work of God
Uses his life as a living testimony
Complete surrender is what we see in Psalm 51:17 a humble spirit, broken heart for the things that have broken His heart, a full acknowledgement that without God no amount of people who like us will satisfy.
God’s desire is that we acknowledge and fully depend on Him.
To fully accept and step into the calling He has for us in His will and to progress His will over our own…
