  • David and the Heart of God - Week 12: Legacy
    Jan 13 2026
    Scripture: 1 Kings 2:1-4, 2 Samuel 7:16, Daniel 2:44, Daniel 7:13-14, Daniel 9:26, Acts 2:29-32. We will take a look at David's legacy. 1 Kings 2:1-4, "When the time drew near for David to die, he gave a charge to Solomon his son, "I am about to go the way of all the earth," he said. "So be strong, act like a man, and observe what the Lord your God requires: Walk in obedience to him, and keep his decrees and commands, his laws and regulations, as written in the Law of Moses. Do this so that you may prosper in all you do and wherever you go and that the Lord may keep his promise to me: 'If your descendants watch how they live, and if they walk faithfully before me with all their heart and soul, you will never fail to have a successor on the throne of Israel.'" Prosper - by obedience to God, faithful to God. Promise - He wants to know there will continue to be godly men on the throne. (Our next questions are: What do we know and what happened? Find out more about the descendants of David in our weekly Bible class "Kings and Prophets from Solomon to Jeremiah" on Tuesdays at 9:30am CT watch here: https://www.awakeusnow.com/tuesday-bible-class ) Back to today's story…. In 2 Samuel 7:16 we read a promise God gave David, "Your house and your kingdom will endure forever before me; your throne will be established forever." FOREVER! Two times! So the question is, "Did God break His word?" We know David's line did end… Zedekiah, was the last descendant of David on the throne at Jerusalem. 586 BC. The answer - "But Daniel…" Pastor shares the story of Daniel's interpretation of King Nebuchadnezzar's dream. Daniel 2:44, ""In the time of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people. It will crush all those kingdoms and bring them to an end, but it will itself endure forever." There's the "forever" word again. In Daniel 7:13-14 Daniel has a vision, ""In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence. He was given authority, glory and sovereign power; all nations and peoples of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed." The book of Daniel, through the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls and some recent discoveries, has theologians, linguists and historians reexamining and taking a fresh look at the ancient past - they are discovering that what Daniel shared was actually true. David's prophetic statements challenge world-views. Daniel 9:26 "The Anointed One will be put to death and will have nothing. The people of the rule who will come sill destroy the city and the sanctuary." (When the 4th kingdom comes the Messiah will be killed, the temple and the city will be destroyed.) Daniel predicted 100's of years in advance: ⁃ Four great empires will arise (Daniel 2:44) ⁃ Son of Man given all authority (Daniel 7:13) ⁃ All nations will worship him (Daniel 7:14) ⁃ His kingdom will be forever (Daniel 7:14) ⁃ Anointed One will be killed (Daniel 9:26) ⁃ Second Temple will be destroyed (Daniel 9:26) Daniel predicted 100's of years in advance that the Messiah would come at the time of the Romans (4th empire) an empire that had not yet risen at the time of the prophecy, that the second temple which had not yet been built would be destroyed by the 4th empire (the Romans - who actually did destroy the temple and the city of Jerusalem), that the Messiah would be killed (He was crucified and died on the Roman cross) and the Messiah's death would happen before the second temple was destroyed. The Messiah is Jesus who is also a descendant of David! And Jesus the Messiah will reign FOREVER! It is a remarkable prophecy - As believers this reinforces our faith and if you are not a believer, our prayer is that this causes you to seek Jesus out because you will find Him! Pastor closes with Peter's testimony in Acts 2:29-32 where we read that David's greatest legacy is Jesus the Messiah. The scriptures - recorded and preserved things going back hundreds and thousands of years, and continue to show itself to be reliable, trustworthy and true. They call us back to Jesus, they call us to come back to Him and respond to Him, to repentant and receive Jesus as our Savior, Lord and King. God does keep His word and may He bring the legacy of David - our Lord Jesus Christ - to the very heart and center of all of our lives. Now What?

  • David and the Heart of God - Week 11: Father Wounds/Father's Wounds
    Jan 12 2026

    Scripture: 2 Samuel 13-19.

    Father Wounds - are wounds brought into our lives through family members. Deep wounds with lasting consequences.

    Father's wounds - are wounds to parents by their children. It is grieving because their children turned their backs on the things they were taught from the time they were little.

    Both are deep and painful wounds.

    How to deal with the pain and how to go beyond it.

    Our study covers:
    Amnon rapes Tamar (2 Sam 13)
    Absalom hates Amnon (2 Sam 13)
    Absalom murders Amnon (2 Sam 13)
    Absalom flees to thalami (2 Sam 13)
    Absalom conspires against David (2 Sam 15)
    Absalom revolts against David (2 Sam 15-17)
    Joab executes Absalom (2 Sam 18)

    In our study we see that wounds eliminate the spiritual strength of King David. We also see wounds that bring about rebellion and hatred, anger and murder. We see wounds experienced by a father who feels he has failed his son.

    A tragic horrible story. Yet God desires to speak to us through it. This story is in the Bible for a reason and purpose. The purpose is not just to inform but to transform. God desires to bring healing, hope and strength and to reverse the painful trajectory of what we have experienced.

    Divine Prescriptions

    ⁃ Sow and Reap - Galatians 6:7-8 Consequences of our behavior can be negative or positive. "Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life." Also, as seen in David's story, God forgives, but the consequences of sin are still there.
    ⁃ Nurture or Anger - Ephesians 6:4 encourages fathers to teach their children to live uprightly and faithfully before God and for fathers to model an upright life to their children.
    ⁃ Truth and Love - Ephesians 4:15 We are to speak truth to our kids but speak that with love.
    ⁃ Forgive and Release - Whether we have father wounds or father's wounds we are to forgive and letting go. Colossians 3:13 We are to forgive as the Lord forgives us - even those who have disappointed us, hurt us deeply, and in that forgiveness and releasing there is healing and there is hope.
    ⁃ Father and Son - 1 John 2:1-2 Jesus is the atoning sacrifice for our sin and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world. God loves us and His love goes beyond the love of any father. Our Heavenly Father offers each of us healing, hope and life-transforming power.

    If you have been the victim of a father wound or if you are experiencing a father's wounds, you need to know there is a Father who loves you more than you could imagine. Who understands the wounds because those wounds were placed in the very body of His Son and He offers to us forgiveness, eternal life, and the ability to start all over.

  • Questions - Week 3: Did Jesus Really Exist?
    Jan 11 2026

    Did Jesus exist?
    Is Jesus a myth?
    Is there any evidence that Jesus actually lived?
    Is there any evidence outside the Bible?

    The answer is absolutely, there's a great deal of evidence. Many are unaware of some of the very profound and powerful evidences for the existences of Jesus.

    Today we will take a look at the evidence for Jesus' existence, coming at it from three different vantage points:

    Ancient Hostile Witnesses: (Pastor goes into detail regarding each of the following hostile testifiers to Jesus and His followers)
    • Tacitus - Annals XV, 44 (ca 55-120A.D)
    • Suetonius - Claudius, 25 and Nero, 18 (ca 117-138 A.D.)
    • Pliny the Younger - Letter to Roman Emperor Trajan (ca 112 A.D.)
    • Sanhedrin 43a (part of the Talmud)
    • Josephus - "Testimonium Flavianum" Antiquities, 18:3 (ca 37-97 A.D.)

    Earliest Witnesses
    • Doctor Luke and John Mark
    • Jesus' best friend, John
    • Saul of Tarsus (Apostle Paul)

    Accepted historical Facts: Acknowledged by Scholars, Liberals, Conservatives, Christians, Jews and Agnostics:
    • Jesus died by Roman Crucifixion
    • His tomb was discovered to be empty
    • His disciples said they saw the risen Jesus
    • His disciples lives were radically changed
    • Resurrection proclaimed early in Jerusalem
    • James and Paul became believers

    Pastor concludes the teaching time telling us that God changed his heart and the direction of his career.

    Then Pastor changes the question to "Does Jesus really exist?" and continues with the following: "If Jesus is alive, if He has risen from the grave, that changes everything. It means that God has broken into our world. It means that there is life and forgiveness in Him, and that apart from Him, you have nothing. Today's question is not simply a question about the historical past, this is a question about eternal destiny!"

    Jesus is alive! And we pray that He will be, if He's not already, the Lord of your life!
