Opis

This is Book 3 of 3 in the Series on The Life of King David. Next to Jesus, the Scriptures cover more of David's life than any other man. David, Israel's greatest king, is one of the most amazing men who ever lived. He is known as being a man after God's own heart (1 Samuel 13:14; Acts 13:22) yet his life is filled with similar ups and downs as those faced by most men today. In some situations he displayed deep faith and trust in God while other times he sounds depressed and discouraged. In other situations he made horrible decisions that impacted his family, his work, and his community. Through all of his ups and downs, he still maintains his faith. Consequently, there are things in David's life which we should emulate and things which we should avoid. Therein lies the hope for God's men today. This Bible study was developed to help you study the Scriptures, discover the greatness and flaws of this king, and make applications in your life so you can emulate the godly parts of David's life and avoid the harsh consequences of disobedience. This study is book three and covers David's later reign. His later reign reveals deep sins and personal tragedy. Although David repents and God forgives him, he reaps the effects of his actions for the rest of his life. In his resulting years, he experiences family strife, incest, murder, and rebellion. One son fakes an illness so he can take advantage of his attractive half-sister. When this fails he rapes her. Another son undermines David's authority and leads a coup to overthrow his father and take control of all Israel. During his later years as king, David forgets where the true power of life comes from and numbers the fighting men in the military. Sadly, as an old man he is impotent and broken.
