2 Samuel 9:1-11:27
John 15:1-27
Psalm 119:49-64
Proverbs 16:1-3
Question of the day: In the space of three chapters of Samuel, we see David going to great lengths to show kindness to Mephibosheth, whom he did not know, and subsequently causing the execution of a man who showed him great loyalty, Uriah the Hittite. How could David fall so far, so fast?
David had been successful, and "the Lord was with him" (such as in 2 Samuel 7:3). This passage shows that Satan never ceases to pursue those who are close to God, and that our faith does not make us immune to temptation. It also shows us that whenever we try to cover up sin, it leads to more sin.
