    Ark, Anger, And Acceptance

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Feb 20, 2010
     | 5,608 views

    We who are successful want instant gratification, but must know that God’s timing may be different, and that it is important to do something that enables others to succeed. In prayer we learn that we are accepted and so our efforts have meaning.

    Success brings with it its own set of problems. If you get used to being successful, you soon expect it, and then if it eludes you, that can be very hard to take. I know that I am speaking this morning to reasonably successful people, by and large. Most of you, when you face a challenge, are able ...read more

    The Temple of the LORD and the dynasty of David.

    HIS PLANS, NOT OUR PLANS. 2 Samuel 7:1-16. (The title of this Sermon is based upon Isaiah 55:8-9.) There are three main thrusts in our reading in 2 Samuel today: 1. There is a subtle difference between a good idea and God’s will (2 Samuel 7:1-4); 2. God’s presence cannot be contained in a ...read more

    God often says "no" to his children. He said no to Paul; no to Moses regarding Miriam's leprosy and his entering the Promised land; no to Jesus in Gethsamane. He now says no to David. That is part of His Godly attributes as a Father.

    DAVID SERIES: A MAN AFTER GOD'S OWN HEART - PART 16: WHEN GOD SAYS NO, THEN WHAT? 2 SAMUEL 7: 1 After the king was settled in his palace and the Lord had given him rest from all his enemies around him, 2 he said to Nathan the prophet, ¡§Here I am, living in a house of cedar, while the Ark of God ...read more

    David wants to build God a house, and God in turn reveals that He wants to build David a house, one that is eternal. God has in mind the salvation of the world. He wants to dwell in the hearts of every believer.

    Last week we saw how David moved the Ark of the Lord back to Jerusalem. • He was careless at the first round, but did it right the second time. He heeded God’s Word and followed God’s way. • We honour God’s presence with reverence and a holy fear. We COME CLEAN with ...read more

    Generally, we hunger to know God. Sometimes we settle for knowing things about Him, but the power of the Christian walk is not in head knowledge or traditions but in the intimate relationship with God as we walk with Him

    1. I am more and more aware that God is often quiet in our day to day lives a. I would love to have a special revelation and words from God like the prophets have had. b. Elijah’s still small voice may have been mere “baby talk” and not discernible to Him. 2. It is important to remember that God is ...read more

    Think back to the last time you had an “unanswered prayer.” How did you respond before God? Augustine’s mother may have been angry with God that her son went to Rome after she prayed he not go. For us, next time, let us remember David’s response.

    Augustine in his confession, writes about as a young man he was intending to travel to Rome. His mother was against it and prayed against it. She prayed earnestly that he might be prevented from going. Her reason being that she feared what effect the temptation of sin in the depravity of that big ...read more
