2 Samuel 6.1-23
Reference: v. 21-22a David said to Michal, “It was before the Lord, who chose me rather than your father or anyone from his house when he appointed me ruler over the Lord’s people Israel – I will celebrate before the Lord.

Family issues are always difficult and complicated. While we are all connected by blood it does not mean that there are not huge differences and massive disagreements. 1 Kings 1.1-27 Reference: v.6 His father had never interfered with him (Adonijah) by asking, 'Why do you behave as you do?' He was also very handsome and was born next after Absalom. (NIV Bible) [ Read More ]
The other week I was preaching a sermon from 2 Samuel 9. In this passage David extends his hand of hospitality to the grandson of Saul, the previous King who tried to kill David. While this is an amazing story (possibly one of my favourites) it holds many challenging names for anyone trying to read it aloud.
The grandson of Saul is Mephibosheth who was living in Lo Debar, in the house of Makir, son of Ammiel! In our church service one of the congregation members stands up before the sermon
David had gone against God's will and had to pay a severe consequence. 2 Samuel 24.1-25 Reference: v. 14 David said to Gad, "I am in deep distress. Let us fall into the hands of the Lord, for his mercy is great; but do not let me fall into the hands of men." [ Read More ]
We are given a snapshot of some of the mighty men who fought for David 2 Samuel 23.1-39 Reference: v. 10a ...but he (Eleazar) stood his ground and struck down the Philistines till his hand grew tired and froze to the sword. [ Read More ]

David may have been a warrior but he never stopped being a songwriter 2 Samuel 22.1-25 Reference: v.1 David sang to the Lord the words of this song when the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. [ Read More ]
When David started to struggle during a battle he realised that he could no longer fight on his own. 2 Samuel 21.1-22 Reference: v.15 Once again there was a battle between the Philistines and Israel. David went down with his men to fight against the Philistines, and he became exhausted. [ Read More ]
Sheba had gone against David and lead the men of Israel astray. Hundreds had desserted David because of this one man. 2 Samuel 20.1-26 Reference: v. 21 "A man named Sheba son of Bicri, from the hill country of Ephraim, has lifted up his hand against the king, against David. Hand over this one man, and I'll withdraw from the city." [ Read More ]
