Golden Years (17 of 54)
by Stan Coffey
AUTHORSHIP: As in the case of I Samuel, the author of II Samuel is not named.

Following the uniting of Kingdoms during the reign of David, the political and religious...
David Lost His Song
by John Barnett
All that really matters in life may be reduced to one simple reality--what does God think of what you are doing or have done.As we open in our Bibles to the last sentence of 2nd Samuel 11:27, and read those words-that is exactly the perspective God presents of David's life at that moment. All that mattered at that moment and for eternity--is what God thought of what David had done. And David did not please the Lord! 2 Samuel 11:27b ''But the thing that David had done displeased the Lord.'' NKJV Think about the moments, hours, days, and weeks that followed this statement. The ornate halls of Jerusalem's royal palace...
The Giant of Fear (3 of 5)
by Jeff Schreve
In the summer of 1996, Debbie and Jill and Amy and Sarah and I moved from Houston to Wake Forest, North Carolina to attend seminary. I didn't have a job. I just knew that God had called me to the ministry and I needed to go to school and I needed to study so we went. I had a little bit of money saved up and we rented a small house and we were there and the Lord was blessing. We didn't have any extras. There was no health insurance because I couldn't afford it and I was working three jobs just trying to make ends meet and then Debbie got a job at the Baptist Book Store. It didn't really pay much but it was a place for her to...

Dirt Don't Hurt
by North Coast Church
1. This weekend, we were given some insight into dealing with the annoyances and challenges that can easily derail us in 2012. One of the keys in maintaining perspective when this happens is keeping God's goals and values in mind. What core values do the following scriptures suggest? 2. If you've been at North Coast for any length of time, you've heard it said that one of the keys to successfully following Christ is through significant relationships. How does Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 describe a few of the physical, spiritual and emotional benefits of ''doing life'' with friends who encourage you? Are there any adjustments, changes...
Mission Impossible
by Brad Whitt
INTRO: I want you to take God's Word and be finding your place at 2nd Samuel chapter 23 if you would. 2nd Samuel 23, and I want to share with you a message entitled, ''Mission Impossible.''Have you ever wanted something that you knew was impossible? - But there was something that you wanted that you knew was absolutely, completely, totally impossible. You know, for some guys - no, for most guys - that would probably be to someway, somehow figure out women. ILLUS: I heard about a man who was walking along a beach one day, kind of kicking at the rocks when he happened to kick up an old lamp. Well, he'd heard all of...
The Door of Faithfulness (7 of 9)
by Dennis Marquardt
INTRO: Faithfulness is not so much a product as it is a process! Being faithful to God this week doesn't guarantee that you will not have to discipline yourself to be faithful to Him next week! Faithfulness requires an act of will all the time! We must continuously choose to be faithful to the Lord, even those who have lived many years faithfully but have let their guard down for a moment know the price of unfaithfulness! Faithfulness is not a product of feelings; it is an act of the will! If we live by our feelings we will probably live a life of vacillating faithfulness! Those who let their emotions rule their lives find ways to excuse their lack...
