❤️ David was not able to build the temple for God, but his son Solomon did.

❤️ The 40 years reign of David as king was full of bloodshed, family conflicts and violence.

❤️ Although it's known that David was a man after God's own heart, he has a lot of imperfections.

❤️ This demonstrated that God's kingdom is not established by human might or political and military conquest, but by peace thru divine intervention.

In Christ peace.

❤️ David became king at the age of 30. He waited patiently for more than 15 years, when Samuel already anointed him as king at the age of 14.

❤️ During those years of waiting, God purposely prepared him to be become“a man after God's own heart".

❤️ That's how God works in our lives, a long process that takes time, no matter how badly we want a quick results.

❤️ The Lord is more concern about our transformation more than our comforts.

❤️ Let us be encouraged to patiently wait upon "the Lord, who is not slow in keeping His promises, as some understand slowness. Instead He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance". (2 Peter 3:9)

In Christ peace.

❤️ This was Debotah's word to Barak when they are anout to defeat the armies of Israels enemy.

❤️ Everytime God ask us to do His will, He already provided ways and means to victory.

❤️ We just need to trust His promised that“The Lord has always gone out before us", and we just need to courageously walk on His paths.

❤️ When God called, we should step up and act on His call.

❤️ We must never doubt His word and put action on our faith.

In Christ peace.

❤️ Hannah in the Old Testament is a story of spiritual endurance. She prayed and waited on the Lord without complaining of her misery.

❤️ She didn't stay down and she didn't give up on God. She also didn't make the same mistake that Sarah and Rachel made by taking the situation into her own hands.

❤️ She continued to pray, worship, and sacrifice in her wait. She trusted God's sovereignty and goodness.

❤️ By Hannah’s enduring faith, God heard her prayers and gave her children, the eldest was Samuel the prophet.

1 Samuel 1‬:‭27 -“I prayed for this child, and the Lord has granted me what I asked of Him. "

In Christ peace.

❤️ God's sovereignty - is His righteous supremacy, authority, power, ownership and immutability.

❤️ God chose a people and a place: The Jews and land of Israel Genesis 15:18 - God’s covenant with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

❤️ God's dealing with this pagan nations, until after 400 years the course of their sin Genesis 15:16 / Deuteronomy 20:16 ”However, in the cities of the nations the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance, do not leave alive anything that breathes.”

❤️ God desired that all – will come to know Him through Jesus Christ, Who is the Only One God:
Joshua 4:24 – "that all the peoples of the earth may know the hand of the LORD, that it is mighty, that you may fear the LORD your God forever.”

In Christ peace.

❤️ Jesus taught His Disciples again about greatness in the sight of God is opposite to the standard of this world.

❤️ It's the exact opposite of this world, because being a leader or great in His church is to be a servant of all.

❤️ Jesus showed this through His entire life of loving and serving the people.

❤️ He made the ultimate service of sacrificing His own life to pay a ransom for the sin of others.

❤️ This is the best example of servant leadership - our Lord Jesus.

In Christ peace.

❤️ The“cup to drink and baptism”refers to sufferings for righteousness that Jesus would go through.

❤️ The brothers James and John are willing to go through same sufferings as Jesus would, in exchange for a high position in heaven.

❤️ We can observe here the danger of “entitlement”or having a selfish motive of being paid off.

❤️ Just by being saved is already more than enough of what sinners deserved.

❤️ So what ever reward we gonna have should always be fair for Our God is perfectly righteous in all His ways.

In Christ peace.

❤️ While the disciples are arguing - who is the greatest among themselves, Jesus called them all together and taught.

❤️ Jesus told them what they know about the leaders of this world - is in contrast and opposite to the leaders in the Kingdom of God.

❤️ Leaders of this world, are proud, they are served, and endowed with control and authority over their subjects.

❤️ While in the Kingdom of God, it's the exact opposite. Where the leaders are those who served the needs of all subjects.

Mark‬ ‭10‬:‭44‬ ‭-“and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all.”
‭

In Christ peace.
