King David - A Man After God's Own Heart

4 Followers

David is described in the Old Testament as king of Israel and Judah. In the Books of Samuel, David is a young shepherd boy who gains fame first as a musician and later by killing the giant enemy champion Goliath. He becomes a favorite of King Saul and a close friend of Saul\'s son Jonathan. Worried that David is trying to take his throne, Saul turns on David. After Saul and Jonathan are killed in battle, David is anointed as King. David conquers Jerusalem, taking the Ark of the Covenant into the city, and establishing the kingdom founded by Saul. As king, David commits adultery with Bathsheba, leading him to arrange the death of her husband Uriah the Hittite. David\'s son Absalom schemes to overthrow David. David flees Jerusalem during Absalom\'s rebellion, but after Absalom\'s death he returns to the city to rule Israel. Because David shed much blood, God denies David the opportunity to build the temple. Before his peaceful death, he chooses his son Solomon as successor. He is honored in the prophetic literature as an ideal king and the forefather of a future Messiah, and many psalms are ascribed to him. David\'s life was full of joys and heartaches. With unbreakable faith and horrendous sin. But all in all God labeled him "As a man after My own heart." This series asks and answer\'s the question "What about David earned him that title and honor?" And how can you learn to be seen that way by God.
