Preparing for Spiritual Warfare
This week, we continue our Shepherd King series with a powerful message exploring David's preparation for spiritual warfare and the deeper truths revealed in his confrontation with Absalom.
In Preparation for Spiritual Warfare — Advancing God's Will, we see David shift from fleeing and mourning to regrouping and preparing for battle. As he leads his army, the tension between love and justice becomes central. David’s deep love for his rebellious son, Absalom, contrasts with Joab’s resolve to enact justice, even at the cost of disobedience.
The passage reflects the cost of sin—not just in Absalom’s downfall, but in David’s own anguish and guilt. Through this, we’re reminded of the foreshadowing of God’s ultimate plan of redemption: a love so great that He took our place and secured our victory through Christ.
This message challenges us to consider: Will we rely on God’s Word, or will we lean on our own wisdom? Join us as we uncover these truths and learn to advance God’s will in our lives.
