2 Samuel 5:6-11 He Took The Strongholds

What do you do when you have waited so patiently on the Lord and then receive the reward of the patience?

For David, the first action was,
I. THE CONQUEST OF JERUSALEM

Once that happened, the Bible goes on to present two benefits that came to David.
II. THE CREATION OF A FRIENDSHIP

Those benefits were so obvious to David that he developed
III. THE CONCEPTION OF GOD’S BLESSING

I am obliged to point out one more piece of this passage,
IV. THE CONCUBINES AND CHILDREN

He’ll Finish What He Started

We are confident that He will perform that work until the very end…

III. THERE IS A GLORIOUS REWARD

WHY?


CHRISTMAS RESET

Isaiah 7:14 (KJV)
Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.

There is an attack against Christmas and it is one that Baptists ought not be part of.

When your sins burden you, go back to Christmas
John 3:16 (KJV)
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

When we start to believe

  • That the devil is the victor
  • That the atheists have won
  • That the secularists and spoiled things
  • That Christianity is ruined

 That nothing is ever going to change.Just look back to Christmas.
John 3:16 (KJV)
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Do you ever think your world is:

  • Too violent
  • Too troubled
  • Too confusing

Too difficult to see 

  • Who to trust, 
  • Who to follow and 
  • Who really is teaching the truth?

Then it is time to look back at Christmas.
John 3:16 (KJV)
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
