2 Samuel 21 - Sin's Consequences And Teamwork



As we come to the last four chapters of 2 Samuel, instead of organizing themselves chronologically, they look back on David’s kingdom, God’s kingdom, and the relationship between them. Chapter 21 discusses some of life’s biggest questions, such as, “If there is a good God, why does he allow natural disaster and suffering?” Join us as we turn to the Bible for answers to some of life’s biggest questions.

2 Samuel 17:1-23 - God's Plans Or Man's Plans



In most cases, we are told of biblical figures to emulate, such as Enoch, Noah, Moses, and Jesus. There are other biblical figures we are told to avoid, such as the Jews who hardened their hearts after the Exodus and Lot’s wife. At the top of the list of biblical characters to avoid in the Old Testament is Ahithophel. He was an evil genius committed to destroying the life of David. In this chapter, we learn about the difference between man’s plans and God’s plans. No matter how brilliant or creative we may be, God’s plans will always prevail. That is why it is always wise to work with God’s plans for his chosen king instead of against them.

2 Samuel 16 - From Friends To Foes



On September 11, when the Twin Towers in New York were attacked, many were late for work. They were frustrated because they were caught in traffic or overslept their alarm. What appeared to be a problem was God’s grace in their life as they were not in the World Trade Center when it was attacked. Many times, God has a way of taking the evil plans of those who are against us and carrying out God’s grace to us through it. In 2 Samuel 16, we meet three of David’s enemies who are unwittingly used for God’s good purposes.
