    Your Heart Condition Before God Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Apr 9, 2022
     | 2,994 views

    It is your heart that determines your usability. Maybe you are not the obvious choice for some position. The lesser known man who has the heart of God prevailed in the case of David. God’s principle remains the same.

    When God looks at you He does not see your height or weight or any warts or blemishes. God sees your heart and He sees you for your heart. How pure is your heart before God? This is the story of the anointing of David, the king of Israel. The setting begins with King Saul. Saul took leadership ...read more

    The nation of Israel is a nation bless by God. Did you know that God actually led them by a CLOUD BY DAY AND A PILLAR OF FIRE BY NIGHT.

    No nation can boast and say that the Lord led them the same way. Other nations were led by kings. However, when Samuel grew old, and Israel looked around and saw other nations had kings, they decided they WISH they also had kings like other nations. Looking around and wishing for something ...read more

When the nation was looking for someone to ...read more

    There are four major characters to this time period in Israel’s history: the prophet and judge Samuel, King Saul, King David, and King Solomon.
