    2 SAMUEL 1:17-27 MOURNING OUR FALLEN “David chanted this lament over Saul and his son Jonathan.

    In every city, town, and community there are memorials. We see memorials in the form of crosses along the highway signifying where a loved one was killed in a traffic accident. Memorial monuments are set up in nearly every city to commemorate war heroes

    Our Seasons Of Grief

    Here we try to understand how David coped with the loss of his best friend Jonathan. Through David’s reactions we are challenged to embrace our seasons of grief in ways that would show that we are relying on God rather than relying on ourselves.

    Opener: This week we reflect on David’s real life struggle with grief. With last week’s teaching on fear, and this week’s text focussed on the theme of grief it seems like we’re wading through some heavy waters aren’t we? But this is good for us. Because I firmly believe that we (as followers ...read more

    Death is a fact of life, but God's Word tells us how to deal with it.

    Intro: 1. Samuel Wise founded the Free Synagogue in New York City back in 1907. He once accepted an invitation to address an anti-Nazi meeting in Brooklyn. He received several death threats. He opened his speech with these words: “I’ve have been warned to stay away from this meeting ...read more

    Jonathan models true friendship and also serves as a picture of how Jesus is a friend to us.

    A few sermons ago we started with a little game called “Declare the Pair.” When I said, “bacon” you were to declare its pair or partner. So in the case of bacon you said…“eggs.” Bacon and eggs are a recognized pair on any breakfast table. We also listed ...read more

    Encouragement to memorialise the sacrifice of those who serve the nation.

    “Your glory, O Israel, is slain on your high places! How the mighty have fallen! Tell it not in Gath, publish it not in the streets of Ashkelon, lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised exult. “You mountains of Gilboa, let there be ...read more

    What enabled David to see his god-given destiny for his life fulfilled?

    We read here how David finally seems to fulfill his God-given destiny. Way back in 1 Samuel 16, we read how the prophet Samuel anointed David to replace Saul as king, and now, after about 23 years, that which God said was His plan for David has finally come to pass. Now, as we consider how ...read more

    It is not enough to have great potential or show great promise. It is what you do with that potential that makes all the difference. A good beginning does not guarantee a good end. End your life well, to the glory of God.

    Whatever we start, do it well and end it well. Put your heart in it and do a good job. It is more important how we end than how well we start. • This is so true of Saul’s life. He started well, but did not end well. • We are going to read about his death today (1 Sam 31), and ...read more

    Wait on God. His timetable is not always the same as ours. His ways are different from ours. God's concern is not in bringing us to a destination but in transforming us into the likeness of His Son.

    Now that Saul the King has died, we would expect a smooth transition and David to be made King, as God has so promised. • Since this has been God’s plan all along, we thought everything would be neat and tidy. But it’s not going to be so. • God can work in ways that are ...read more
