    "The Crowning Of The King"

    Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Sep 9, 2013
     | 6,174 views

    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

    HFL MAY 1, 2011 2 SAMUEL 1;1-5 1After the death of Saul, David returned from defeating the Amalekites and stayed in Ziklag two days. 2On the third day a man arrived from Saul’s camp, with his clothes torn and with dust on his head.

    A meditation on Remembrance Day, 2008.

    2 SAMUEL 1:17-27 MOURNING OUR FALLEN “David chanted this lament over Saul and his son Jonathan. (He gave instructions that the people of Judah should be taught “The Bow.” Indeed, it is written down in the Book of Yashar.) “The beauty of Israel lies slain on your high places!

    KWAME KILPATRICK AND GREAT FALLS IN THE BIBLE Text: 2:Samuel 1:27 INTRODUCTION: 1. This was a historic week for the state of Michigan.

    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

    “And when he had entered, he said to them, ‘Why are you making a commotion and weeping? The child is not dead but sleeping’.” Mark 5:39

    Introduction: Man was created in the image and likeness of God with power to make choices. These choices determine the quality of our lives and our eternal destiny. Eve made the choice to eat the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil rather than the fruit of the tree of life and ...read more

    Lent is a ritual of the Church that leads us into the hope we have in Jesus. Fasting and Prayer are disciplines of Lent to bring about suffering to draw a person closer to God

    “Lent is one of the oldest observations on the Christian calendar. Like all Christian holy days and holidays, it has changed over the years, but its purpose has always been the same: self-examination and penitence, demonstrated by self-denial, in preparation for Easter. Early church father ...read more

    Psalms 58 And 109 Series

    Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Mar 5, 2020
     | 4,584 views

    The outrage expressed in passages in these psalms are examples of times David seemed to be "fed up" with his enemies. He pours out his fury to God, not intending for his Father to act on the ills he calls for, but for God to see the passion poisoning his heart and send relief.

    For Sermon Central researchers: I have posted a series of 15 sermons on the Psalms. In recent personal studies I have found the psalms to be richer and more thought-provoking than I had fully appreciated. I had too often swept swiftly through psalms without slowing down to inquire as thoroughly as ...read more

    The message is a call for men to be manly, despite knowing the cost that may be required of a man.

    “David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and Jonathan his son, and he said it should be taught to the people of Judah; behold, it is written in the Book of Jashar. He said: “‘Your glory, O Israel, is slain on your high places! How the mighty have fallen! Tell it not in Gath, publish it ...read more

    Second Samuel 1:17-27 gives us a written lament for someone who has died.

    Scripture The Book of Second Samuel opens with David hearing of Saul’s death. The Philistine army defeated the army of Israel on Mount Gilboa.

    This lamentation had written for the honor of King Saul and Jonathan. It is a homage rendered to them. The spiritual fall led him to have physical death before his enemies. Jonathan had fallen because of his company with his father. Take heed lest you fall.

    Text: 2 Samuel 1:17-27 Theme: The Mighty Have Fallen I greet you all in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The LORD is Good; His steadfast love endures forever. God willing this month we will be meditating under the theme “Take heed lest you fall”(1 Corinthians 10:4). As we are going ...read more

    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

    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

    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
