1 & 2 Samuel: Week 8

David’s Kingdom Established and Ensured | Charisse Compton

As the King Fares, So Do His People: 2 Samuel 2-10

David knew he had been anointed king of Israel for the sake of God’s people. But now we see that God had much more in mind than one king over one little nation for one little page of history. In these incredible promises to David, we hear the fulfillment of his long ago promises to Abraham, and we realize that God has chosen David to be the first in a long line of Israelite kings to not just bless the people of Israel, but to bless all nations of the earth. In these promises, God recycles the language of his promise to Abraham.
