“Thy Kingdom Come”

The ultimate hope of the believer is to experience resurrection. Once we receive our new resurrection bodies, we are going to live in those bodies with God for eternity in a new physical earth. Until then, God invites us to experience a foretaste of his nearness and power in our present lives.

“A Heart Fit for Heaven”

Our view of the afterlife will have a profound impact on how we live our lives in the present, but the choices we make in this life will have an impact for all of eternity.

“Bless the Lord, O my Soul!” – Psalm 103

We often struggle to feel like worshiping God, but through the heart of David, God shows us the pathway into His own heart, by calling us to engage all of who we are, in light of all of He has done for us, and all He is to us.

“How Long, O Lord?” – Psalm 13

We experience anger and frustration with God when we feel He has abandoned us in our pain and sorrow, but God restores in us a sense of His love and presence when we are honest about how we feel with Him and acknowledge our need for Him.  

“God of the Broken” – Psalm 139

We struggle with being emotionally honest with God, because we do not want to admit how broken we really are. But David invites us into the honesty that God desires by revealing to us that He can be trusted with all of our brokenness.    

“You Are the Man!” -2 Samuel 11-12

It is in his love and mercy for us that God exposes the sins that we try to hide from ourselves and others. This is to lead us to confession of our sin and bring us to a place of God’s forgiveness and wholeness.

“Covenant Love” – 2 Samuel 9

The story of David is the story of a person growing more and more alive to God and his love for Mephibosheth demonstrates a heart that is growing in its pursuit of God.
