    A sermon dealing with the danger of succumbing to a spirit of jealousy

    Saul was very angry; this refrain galled him. “They have credited David with tens of thousands,” he thought, “but me with only thousands. What more can he get but the kingdom?” And from that time on Saul kept a jealous eye on David...In everything [Da-vid] did he had great success, because the ...read more

    We would like to think that after killing Goliath, David would be well-liked and admired by everyone in Israel. But the problem with success is it brings its own set of difficulties. How we handle these difficulties shows our character vefore God.

    The Trouble With Success 1 Samuel 18:1-16 How many like to think that when good things are happening that everyone will like us and want to rejoice with us? Most people will. But there will be people, even in the church, who will be jealous of our victories, and how we handle this jealousy and ...read more

    This morning we will look at a love story; nope, not about a man and woman but about 2 men. I don’t want you to answer, but what is going on in your mind right now? I got your attention didn’t I? Our sinful world sees the relationship of David and Jonathan as a romantic one. The ...read more

    “the Blessing And Curse Of Success”

    Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Jul 1, 2013
     | 8,784 views

    Saul and David illustrate the differences between true and false success in life.

    If there is a quote that I count among my favorites, it is the quote from George W. Truett, who said that “True success is knowing God’s will and being in the center of it.” Implied in that quote is that there is a type of success that is true and another that is false. In this ...read more

    God's hand was on David. The Lord was going to make him into on of the greatest kings in human history, but in order to do that God had to mold & sharpen him. God needed to do His work in order to make His man. The way God breaks & makes His great servant

    It is a great mystery to me; I truly cannot understand how people with Jesus in their hearts can be so hateful and hurtful towards one another? How can they be so impatient and angry at each other? When that should love each other instead.

    6 And it came to pass as they came, when David was returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet King Saul, with tabrets, with joy, and with instruments of musick. 7 And the women answered one another as they played, and ...read more

    Of the four types of love, only one can be chosen -- Agape. God did this intentionally because Agape is the most powerful, and echoes the love He has for us.

    Last week we began our series on the L Word with lust, as an example of what love is not. That means that tonight we will begin to learn about what love is. But which love are we talking about? If that question doesn’t make sense, don’t worry -- you’re not alone. We only have one ...read more

    Recently had to deal with a bitter root that showed up in church. I had been reading Tale of 3 Kings just prior. Decided to speak about the Saul in me, rather than the Saul in others.

    Dealing With Spear Throwers PPT 1 Message Title In John 14:2 Jesus said, "I go to prepare a place for you." That verse primarily concerns heaven, but I want to take the thought of a prepared place and alter it slightly to say that not only does God prepare a place for us, but He also prepares us ...read more

    The Spirit of Saul is one of the many spirits coming against the church today. This message tells how to identify, confront, and demolish this spirit before it destroys a church.

    NOTE TO THE READER: I was preaching a series near the beginning of the year at the War PH Church entitled "Close Encounters", when God stopped me dead in my tracks, and started teaching me of the "Spirit of Saul". I had no knowledge of this spirit until then. The week before, I had preached on how ...read more

    God could have bypassed all protocols and land David in the Palace, but that would be suicidal for David. He had to learn the language of protocol and statecraft. He had to learn how to deal with pressures of success and pass - women, power, wealth.
