Here we discover, once again, the two central elements in the way God deals with his people. Here we find God’s justice and mercy going hand in hand as he deals with a failed leader.

David's Worship

Contributed by Jehu Hernandez on Jan 20, 2001

David practiced a true, biblical worship of God because he was passionate about God.

Jesus said that the Father is looking for people who would worship Him in spirit and in truth. This type of worship is more than what we now call “praise and worship”. We so often judge a church by their “praise and worship,” as if that is the only barometer to the spiritual health of a church. ...read more
