Brother Robert continued the study of David.
2 Samuel 14

Chapter 14 is similar to the Prodigal son in Luke.

V1-4, Joab devises a plan to take advantage of David’s compassion toward the widowed.

V4-7, the words of Joab said through the woman.

V8, David wants to research the matter.

V9-10, the woman pressed David to make a decision now.

V11-17, the woman wanted David to remember the mercy that God had shown him.

V18-19, David figures out that Joab is behind the woman’s actions.
Note: In making a decision, we pray and wait. Sometimes action is required. Joab took action.

Note: For Reconciliation, someone has to take the first step.

Be prepared for next week’s study.

Freedom is not in religion.

Brother Robert continued the study of David.
2 Samuel 13




V15-18, Worldly example of the consequences of lust. Once the chase is over, lust will turn into hate.

V19, Outward grief is good.

V20, Absalom did not give wise council in having Tamar suppress her grief.

V21, David was angry but did not take action. No punishment was given. No council was given.
Bitterness will grow into malice – Ephesians 4:31-32

V22-29, Absalom plotted Annon’s demise.

V30-31, David accepted with mourning not disbelief that Absalom killed all of his sons.
(Note: David is not surprised that Absalom could do this.)

Conclusion; David was a good king but not a good parent. We as parents need to be active in the lives of our children and grandchildren.

Be prepared for next week’s study.
