David’s Refuge & Salvation

March 3, 2024 Speaker: Tim Rice Series: 2 Samuel

Passage: 2 Samuel 22:1-7, 2 Samuel 22:26-36

Memory Verse for the Week: 2 Samuel 22:29-31 (ESV)

For you are my lamp, O LORD, and my God lightens my darkness. For by you I can run against a troop, and by my God I can leap over a wall. This God—his way is perfect; the word of the LORD proves true; he is a shield for all those who take refuge in him.

INTRO: What is the closest you’ve come to dying?

WAVES & SNARES
What sobered and humbled David?

COMPLETE TRUST
How had David turned toward the LORD, trusting Him utterly?

FULL REDEMPTION
How did the LORD give David reason to trust that he would be redeemed?

YOU CAN PRAY WITH US …

1. Worship the LORD that He is utterly trustworthy in His power, wisdom and love. Praise Him, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, that He is steadfast, gracious, and merciful to exercise His infinite power to save sinners like us!

2. How have you lived as if the LORD is not trustworthy? Confess your pride and unbelief to Jesus, especially for slandering His good character by your doubts, asking Him to forgive you and to secure you by His grace.

3. Give thanks to Jesus for His work to use the very things that terrify us to make us safe for all eternity. Thank Him for entering into death to atone for all of your sins and for breaking out of death to secure us forever.

4. Who do you know that is (rightly) humbled before death and its inevitability? Pray for them, asking the Lord to lift their gaze up to Him and His work, in Christ, to free us from death and all our fears.

5. Ask the Holy Spirit to bear in you His fruit of love and joy. Pray that He would so anchor your hopes in the Person and Work of Jesus that He would grow you to be more joyful and less fearful.
