The Perplexity of God’s Sovereignty

1  After the death of Saul, when David had returned from striking down the Amalekites, David remained two days in Ziklag. 2 And on the third day, behold, a man came from Saul’s camp, with his clothes torn and dirt on his head. And when he came to David, he fell to the ground and paid homage. 3 David said to him, “Where do you come from?” And he said to him, “I have escaped from the camp of…

King David: An OT Example of Submission to God

David provides a good example of an OT believer who lived in regular submission to God. The Bible describes David as a man after God’s own heart (1 Sam 13:14; cf. Acts 13:22). David walked faithfully with the Lord and surrendered to His will. David was an obedient king, for the most part, and subsequent kings were measured by him (1 Ki 3:14; 9:4-5; 11:4-6, 31-34, 38; 14:7-8; 15:1-5; 11-15; 2 Ki…

Suiting Up for a Battle Win

Suiting Up for a Battle Win

At the Vincentian Family Center, my co-worker and I saw two keychains with a large coin engraved with a soldier armed for battle. They were donated for us to sell. At first sight, we didn’t recognize it, but then at a closer look, we saw a strong warrior with his sword and shield. I flipped the coin over and it had the words from Ephesians 6 on it: The BELT of truth; the BREASTPLATE of…

Coronation of the Lord’s Anointed

Psalm 2:1-12 1Why do the nations rage, And the people plot a vain thing? 2The kings of the earth set themselves, And the rulers take counsel together, Against the Lord and against His Anointed, saying, 3“Let us break Their bonds in pieces And cast away Their cords from us.” 4He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; The Lord shall hold them in derision. 5Then He shall speak to them in His…

Respecting God’s Anointed Leaders

“And it came to pass, when Saul was returned from following the Philistines, that it was told him, saying, ‘Behold, David is in the wilderness of Engedi.’ Then Saul took three thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men upon the rocks of the wild goats. And he came to the sheepcotes by the way, where wasa cave; and Saul went in to cover his feet: and David and his…

The Fact of God

The Fact of God

The brazen desert sun reflected mercilessly off of every rise, wallowing in the gaps between the dry cliff walls and the tawny wilderness floor. The opening crags of jutting rock faces joining to form the rugged hillsides of the desert of Judea seemed to move toward the afternoon sun as the light played its way in waves above the hot sand and desert gravel looking off to the west. Along the…

Go Through the Gates of the Lord!

One Blue Horse says: I really appreciate the points Scott makes and the Words from God. The areas we are advised to guard in this coming year are ones we all have problems with to some degree or another. I have felt the weight of these attacks he says to guard against for weeks now, especially the one about the enemy locking you in a state of depression and taking wrong counsel from people. I had…

Learning to Rest in God

13 Then David went over to the other side and stood far off on the top of the hill, with a great space between them. 14 And David called to the army, and to Abner the son of Ner, saying, “Will you not answer, Abner?” Then Abner answered, “Who are you who calls to the king?” 15 And David said to Abner, “Are you not a man? Who is like you in Israel? Why then have you not kept watch over your lord…

A Heart-To-Heart Talk.

“See, my father, see the corner of your robe in my hand. For by the fact that I cut off the corner of your robe and did not kill you, you may know and see that there is no wrong or treason in my hands. I have not sinned against you, though you hunt my life to take it. May the Lord judge between me and you, may the Lord avenge me against you, but my hand shall not be against you. As the proverb of…

A King Mourns the Death of the King and His Dynasty

Now it came to pass after the death of Saul, when David was returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites, and David had abode two days in Ziklag; it came even to pass on the third day, that, behold, a man came out of the camp from Saul with his clothes rent, and earth upon his head: and it was, when he came to David, that he fell to the earth, and did obeisance.  And David said unto him, ‘From…
