    How did David handle wicked King Saul?

    Before we celebrate Communion today, let us continue to learn from the Book of 1 Samuel. Turn with me briefly to 1 Samuel 24…… King Saul, who was hunting David to kill him, went in a cave and David could have killed Saul there. Now look at v16-22…. It sounded like King Saul ...read more

    How do we end up with bad decisions and how are we to handle them?

    A few weeks ago we noted a simple formula for life: Good Decisions = Good Results! Bad Decisions = Bad Results! Please open your Bibles to 1 Samuel 27…. Look briefly at v1-2 with me…. David made a decision! As we read the whole chapter and a few verses in ...read more

     | 6,168 views

    sooner or later, a person will pay the consequences of sinning against God!

    Have you heard of the saying, “There are no atheists in foxholes!”? When people are facing death, there is a tendency to ask God for help! We will note this today in our passage. Early in our study of 1 Samuel, even though Israel were God’s Chosen People, they wanted a king like ...read more

    Cooling my heels in the waiting room! 1 Samuel 27:3 “And David lived with Achish at Gath, he and his men, each with his household, even David…” Did I hear it right? Can I hear it again please? Yes, here we go, “David lived with Achish at Gath”. Wait a minute! What is ...read more

    David and Nabal I Samuel 25:4-13 Hospitality This Middle Eastern cultural practice of “hospitality” is what saved the life of Marcus Lattrell. Jesus challenges Simon with a failure to keep a well-known Middle Eastern cultural practice. Luke 7:44-48

    The Game of Thrones- Israel’s Experience with Human Kings” “Revenge or Hospitality?” I have three stories to share with you this morning. One is from the movie “Lone Survivor” and the other two are from the bible. All three have something in common. Luke ...read more

  • Are Your Words Testifying Against You?

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Sep 24, 2020
    based on 2 ratings
     | 7,448 views

    One of the things that I believe we sometimes forget is that the words that we speak mean a lot more than what we may think. This message is about the importance of speaking in agreement with God.

    Are Your Words Testifying Against You? One of the things that I believe we sometimes forget is that the words that we speak mean a lot more than what we may think. And one of the verses we’re going to look at this morning, and I’ll turn to it. It’s John 6:63. Jesus says, “It is the spirit that ...read more

  • Back Stabbing

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Oct 9, 2020
     | 2,419 views

    It cuts really deep, when your own people stab your back! Just when you need lots of love and hugs, that’s when you get another blow to add to the pain and sorrow. Have you experienced that?

    Take a risk and help 1 Samuel 29:1”Then they told David, saying, "Behold, the Philistines are fighting against Keilah and are plundering the threshing floors." It is imperative that I give the background of the above verse and this chapter very crisply before I delve into the subject ...read more

  • Scared Straight #2 - That Ain't Casper Series

    Contributed by Robert Butler on Nov 2, 2020
     | 2,527 views

    The supernatural doesn’t exist for a Christian. It’s all normal and to be expected. Do you access it in your daily life or do you ignore it for what you can see and touch?

    Last week we began a new teaching series around the supernatural. We discussed the idea that Jesus' presence and works 2000 years ago represent an orderly working of the world many don’t recognise nor do they understand, so they call the events - supernatural. But are they? One magician ...read more

  • The High Cost Of Arrogance Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Feb 5, 2017
    based on 3 ratings
     | 13,544 views

    Arrogance kills. Should anyone question that statement, they need but study an incident when a king whom God anointed requested consideration from a wealthy farmer. What happened next is a warming against becoming arrogant.

    “Abigail came to Nabal, and behold, he was holding a feast in his house, like the feast of a king. And Nabal’s heart was merry within him, for he was very drunk. So she told him nothing at all until the morning light. In the morning, when the wine had gone out of Nabal, his wife told him these ...read more

    First Samuel 26:1-25 shows us the faithfulness of God's servant.

    Scripture When you hear today’s Scripture reading in this sermon series on “The Life of David,” you may think that we have already covered this incident. And, indeed, it is very similar to the incident that occurred in 1 Samuel 24 where we learned how David spared Saul’s life. Some liberal ...read more

  • Why Does God Allow Suffering In Our Lives?

     | 2,739 views

    Have you ever wondered: Why does God allow suffering in our lives? When we talk about why God allows suffering in our lives and how we can cope and do it to overcome it. It is not common to address their origin and causes.

    Have you ever wondered: Why does God allow suffering in our lives? When we talk about why God allows suffering in our lives and how we can cope and do it to overcome it. It is not common to address their origin and causes. What I mean is where this suffering probably came from, which is its ...read more

    First Samuel 28:3-25 shows us the final hopelessness of a person who continually disobeys God.

  • Jonathan Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,288 views

    In an era of cancel culture and the quest to remain in power at all cost, the story of Jonathan is worth knowing about.

    November 26, 2022 We know virtually nothing about Jonathan. He was the oldest son of Saul and Ahinoam and next in line for the throne of Israel. The Bible does not tell us if he was married, but we are told that he had a son, Mephibosheth, who was 5 years old when Jonathen was killed on Mt. ...read more

  • Reasoning With An Unreasonable King (1 Samuel 24:1-22)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Sep 9, 2024
     | 738 views

    David's journey to the throne seemed to stop when he found himself in a cave hiding from King Saul's army. David had an opportunity to kill Saul. However, he handled it in a way that demonstrated both his godly character and leadership.

    We have followed the life of David from the time where he was a shepherd boy tending the flocks of his family to the battlefields of Israel. He has matured from a boy into a man, killing a giant, winning the heart of the nation, and developing into a man of God. He had reached the pinnacles of ...read more
