1) David flees Jerusalem as his son Absalom stages a rebellion to take the throne. David trusts God will give him victory and return him to power.
2) As David's troops pass by, he stops his loyal bodyguard Ittai and insists he return home for his safety, though Ittai refuses to leave David.
3) David prays that God will turn the counsel of his advisor Ahithophel, who has betrayed him to join Absalom, into foolishness. He also sends Hushai to spy on Absalom and counter Ahithophel's advice.

Ai was a place where Israel had been defeated due to self-reliance (Joshua 7). In this chapter Israel once again faces the same adversary, this time victoriously. What made the difference? What past failure(s) in your life have your surrendered to God and discovered overwhelming victory? What is your current Ai? Based on the principles of Joshua 8 what action must you take in turning defeat in-to victory?
In Judges chapter 1 we see the Hand of God bringing victory as long as His children are obedient. We also see the beginnings of their defeat through disobedience.

What do the names Amorite, Makkedah and Joshua mean? How do these meanings apply to you? Why did the 5 kings hide in a cave while their armies were fighting and dying on the battlefield? What did Joshua do when their hideout was discovered? Why?
What happened to the kings when the battle was over, and Joshua had defeated their armies? Can you name five “kings” you are battling? They may be very personal: spiritually, mentally, emotionally or behaviorally. They may be in your family, or at work or school, or in your social life, or in your church.

God talks to us life of david mark jackson february 24 2019Pacific Church
As great as it is when people in the Old Testament hear an audible voice from God telling them what to do, that is not always the way God communicates now. In Three Different Chapters, we have three different stories of ways God communicates with David, with the purpose of helping David center His life around God.

Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

3. 3
Absalom has stirred up a
revolution and is coming to
take the palace.
David has fled, but we know
from Psalm 3 that it’s
not from fear.
It’s a strategy of warfare that
David knows well.
He is trusting God to give
him the victory and bring
him back to the throne.
4. 4
2 Sam 15:19 Then said the king to Ittai the Gittite,
Wherefore goest thou also with us? return to thy
place (Gath), and abide with the king: for thou art a
stranger, and also an exile. 20 Whereas thou camest
but yesterday, should I this day make thee go up
and down with us? seeing I go whither I may,
return thou, and take back thy brethren: mercy and
truth be with thee.
As his troops pass before him, David is watching,
and he stops the leader of his personal bodyguard.
David needed these 600 mighty men, but
would not persuade them to go.
5. 5
David knows that he is suffering because of
his past sins; God told him it was coming.
2 Samuel 12 9 Wherefore hast thou despised the
Commandment of the LORD, to do evil in His
sight? thou hast killed Uriah the Hittite with the
sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and
hast slain him with the sword of the children of
Ammon.
6. 6
10 Now therefore the sword shall never depart from
thine house; because thou hast despised Me, and
hast taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be thy
wife. 11 Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will raise
up evil against thee out of thine own house, and I
will take thy wives before thine eyes, and give
them unto thy neighbor, and he shall lie with thy
wives in the sight of this sun.
The things we do have far-
reaching consequences.
7. 7
We are living now in the circumstances
we created with our choices years ago.
Years from now we will be living with the
circumstances we are creating with the
choices we are making today.

living your life God’s Way.
Deuteronomy 11 26-27
8. 8
21 And Ittai answered the king, and said, As the
LORD liveth, and as my lord the king liveth, surely
in what place my lord the king shall be, whether in
death or life, even there also will thy servant be.
22 And David said to Ittai, Go and pass over. And
Ittai the Gittite passed over, and all his men, and all
the little ones that were with him.
Loyalty
There’s not much loyalty in the culture we live in.
People do what’s best for number one.
9. 9
1 Corinthians 13:7 (TLB) 7 If you love someone,
you will be loyal to him no matter what the cost.
You will always believe in him, always expect the
best of him, and always stand your ground in
defending him.
Hebrews 13 5 Let your conversation (way of life)
be without covetousness; and be content with such
things as ye have: for He hath said, I will never
leave thee, nor forsake thee.
Jesus is a loyal friend; so should we be.
10. 10
23 And all the country wept with a loud voice, and
all the people passed over: the king also himself
passed over the brook Kidron, and all the people
passed over, toward the way of the wilderness.
24 And lo Zadok also, and all the Levites were with
him, bearing the Ark of the Covenant of God: and
they set down the Ark of God; and Abiathar went
up, until all the people had done passing out of the
city.
11. 11
25 And the king said unto Zadok, Carry back the
Ark of God into the city: if I shall find favor in the
eyes of the LORD, He will bring me again, and
shew me both it, and His habitation: 26 But if He
thus say, I have no delight in thee; behold, here am
I, let him do to me as seemeth good unto Him.
David believed God would bring him back to
Jerusalem to reign as king, but if not
(if his sin was so great that God was through with
him), he didn’t want the Ark to be in exile with him.
12. 12
David is very careful for the safety of the ark. It is
right to be more concerned for the church's
prosperity than our own; to prefer the success of
the Gospel above our own wealth, credit, ease, and
safety. Observe with what satisfaction and submis-
sion David speaks of the Divine disposal. Matthew Henry
Divine Disposal -- meaning however God
chose to handle this situation.
Too many Christians want to tell God what is best,
rather than trusting in His “Divine Disposal”.
13. 13
It is our interest, as well as our duty, cheerfully to
acquiesce in the Will of God, whatever befalls us.
Let us see God's hand in all events; and that we
may not be afraid of what shall be, let us see all
events in God's hand. David's sin was ever before
him, (Psalm 51:3); but never so plain, nor ever
appearing so black as now.
Matthew Henry Concise Bible Commentary
Psalm 51 3 For I acknowledge my transgressions:
and my sin is ever before me.
14. 14
27 The king said also unto Zadok the priest, Art not
thou a seer? return into the city in peace, and your
two sons with you, Ahimaaz thy son, and Jonathan
the son of Abiathar. 28 See, I will tarry in the plain
of the wilderness, until there come word from you
to certify me.
(TLB) 28 I will stop at the ford of the Jordan River
and wait there for a message from you. Let me
know what happens in Jerusalem before I
disappear into the wilderness.
15. 15
29 Zadok therefore and Abiathar carried the Ark of
God again to Jerusalem: and they tarried there.
30 And David went up by the ascent of mount
Olivet, and wept as he went up, and had his head
covered, and he went barefoot: and all the people
that was with him covered every man his head, and
they went up, weeping as they went up.
David never wept when running from Saul; his
conscience was clear.
Now he weeps because his sin has caused this.
16. 16
Psalm 38 3 There is no soundness in my flesh
because of Thine anger; neither is there any rest in
my bones because of my sin. 4 For mine iniquities
are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they
are too heavy for me. 5 My wounds stink and are
corrupt because of my foolishness. 6 I am troubled;
I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the
day long.
If your sin doesn’t break your heart,
you will never truly repent.
17. 17
31 And one told David, saying, Ahithophel is among
the conspirators with Absalom. And David said, O
LORD, I pray thee, turn the counsel of Ahithophel
into foolishness.
First he prayed about it.
Then he put legs on his prayers.
18. 18
32 And it came to pass, that when David was come
to the top of the mount, where he worshipped God,
behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with
his coat rent, and earth upon his head: 33 Unto
whom David said, If thou passest on with me, then
thou shalt be a burden unto me: 34 But if thou return
to the city, and say unto Absalom, I will be thy
servant, O king; as I have been thy father's servant
hitherto, so will I now also be thy servant: then
mayest thou for me defeat the counsel of
Ahithophel.
19. 19
35 And hast thou not there with thee Zadok and
Abiathar the priests? therefore it shall be, that what
thing soever thou shalt hear out of the king's house,
thou shalt tell it to Zadok and Abiathar the priests.
36 Behold, they have there with them their two
sons, Ahimaaz Zadok's son, and Jonathan
Abiathar's son; and by them ye shall send unto me
everything that ye can hear. 37 So Hushai David's
friend came into the city, and Absalom came into
Jerusalem.
20. 20
At all times and in all situations
we should do two things:
Pray as if it all depends on God.
Work as if it all depends on us.
God blesses our efforts when we pray.
He can’t bless our laziness.
Do what you know to do according to God’s
Word – every day – all the way.
