Failure Is Not Final (3 of 5)
Series: DestineNation
Ryan Heller
Psalm 51
I want to talk to you today about the topic Failure Is Not Final. Unfortunately, many times the failures in our lives tend to define us. But we're going to see today, from the Word of God, that even though we fail, even though we stumble, even though we struggle at times, failure does not have to be final. Maybe you've blown it in your own life. You can look back at decisions you've made, and places you've gone, at people you've known, and things you wish you never had said. We can look back with a sense of remorse, but God has a great Word for us today--Our failure is not final.
Today we are looking at 2 Samuel 11, the story of David and Bathsheba. It's springtime. David is supposed to be at battle with his troops. Instead he has chosen to hang out at the palace, which is unlikely for David; he is always out on the field of battle with his men. But that day he is idle.
Often, when we have idleness in our life, we can fall into different types of sins. That's exactly what happened on this spring day. David was walking on the roof of the palace. He was bored. He was not where he needed to be. He looked over and saw a beautiful woman, Bathsheba, bathing on the roof of her home. David took a look, then he took another look, and then he took another look, and he began to desire her. He sent one of his servants over to inquire who she was, and he found out something startling-something shocking-that Bathsheba was the wife of Uriah the Hittite.
Uriah the Hittite was a Delta Force guy. He was one of the most loyal men in David's army, one of David's mighty men, one of his closest comrades and friends. David had begun to lust after the wife of this man who was devoted to him. David summoned her to the palace, he seduced her, and they had a sexual relationship. A month or so later she told him by note that she was pregnant. David went into cover-up mode.
