In tribulation or triumph? – 2 Sam 22

23NOV

8th Year 12-13 Edition 3 – 2nd Sam. 22 l The Feast l Nov 23_2012 II Sam 22 Return to Admenu Home Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully read, 2nd Samuel 22. Today we read David’s psalm of thanksgiving. “This chapter is a psalm of praise; we find it afterwards nearly as ( Psalms 18 ) . They that trust God in the way of duty, shall find him a present help in their greatest dangers: David did so. Remarkable preservations should be particularly mentioned in our praises. We shall never be delivered from all enemies till we ( 2 Timothy. 4:18 ) Those who receive signal mercies from God, ought to give him the glory. In the day that God delivered David, he sang this song. While the mercy is fresh, and we are most affected with it, let the thank-offering be brought, to be kindled with the fire of that affection. All his joys and hopes close, as all our hopes should do, in the great Redeemer.“ – Matthew Henry’s Concise Commentary (2nd Sam 22). “50 “For this I will praise you, O Lord, among the nations, and sing praises to your name. 51 Great salvation he brings[j] to his king, and shows steadfast love to his anointed, to David and his offspring forever.”” 2 Samuel 22:50-51 English Standard Version (ESV). We need to follow God and keep our eyes on Jesus not circumstances. Like king David no matter what our trials we will sing his praises. Thanksgiving devotional series by Pastor, Glen Aycock; Posted Nov 23, 2012 THANKSGIVING PRAYER DEVOTIONAL (Submitted by Pastor Glen Aycock) SCRIPTURE: Jonah 2:1-10 1 ¶ Then Jonah prayed to his God from the belly of the fish. 2 He prayed: “In trouble, deep trouble, I prayed to GOD. He answered me. From the belly of the grave I cried, ‘Help!’ You heard my cry. 3 You threw me into ocean’s depths, into a watery grave, with ocean waves, ocean breakers crashing over me. 4 I said, ‘I’ve been thrown away, thrown out, out of your sight. I’ll never again lay eyes on your Holy Temple.’ 5 Ocean gripped me by the throat. The ancient Abyss grabbed me and held tight. My head was all tangled in seaweed 6 at the bottom of the sea where the mountains take root. I was as far down as a body can go, and the gates were slamming shut behind me forever―yet you pulled me up from that grave alive, O GOD, my God! 7 When my life was slipping away, I remembered GOD, and my prayer got through to you, made it all the way to your Holy Temple. 8 Those who worship hollow gods, god-frauds, walk away from their only true love. 9 But I’m worshiping you, GOD, calling out in thanksgiving! And I’ll do what I promised I’d do! Salvation belongs to GOD!” “Establishing the Priority of Giving Thanks.” Jonah almost waited too late to have thanksgiving. He cried out from the belly of a whale. His head straining to stay up out the acidity water which threatened to drown him and seaweed and previous swallowed meals full of turbulence of a roller coaster ride he finally decided to pray to His God. He was in trouble and a watery grave. This was it. His life slipping away he remembered God. His prayer made it through! He was ready to worship. He was ready to keep his promise to God. Most of all he was ready to give Thanks. Prayer Thought: Dear Jesus, help us to prioritize giving thanks to God. Amen. David knowing who his deliverer is, called on the Lord of his salvation. “Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name! For the LORD is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations.” Psalm 100:4-5 ESV. Always keep the first thing first, that is salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.” Blessing God in tribulation or triumph, allows our Lord to continue blessing us.

8th Year 12-13 Edition 3 – 2nd Sam. 21 l The Feast l Nov 22_2012 II Sam 21 Return to Admenu Home Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully read, 2nd Samuel 21. King David allows for the Gibeonites to be avenged. David gives the bones of Saul and Jonathan into Rizpah's care. The battles with the Philistines continue. God blesses David and his descendants; “22 These four were descended from the giants in Gath, and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.” 2 Samuel 21:22, English Standard Version (ESV). God love's David, because always David turned to and trusted God. David's faith was also on his descendants. With all his problems and sin king David had much to be giving God thanks for. Thanksgiving day devotional series by Pastor, Glen Aycock; “THANKSGIVING DEVOTIONAL- THURDAY NOV 22 SCRIPTURE: Revelation 7: 9-12 9 I looked again. I saw a huge crowd, too huge to count. Everyone was there—all nations and tribes, all races and languages. And they were standing, dressed in white robes and waving palm branches, standing before the Throne and the Lamb 10 and heartily singing: Salvation to our God on his Throne! Salvation to the Lamb! 11 All who were standing around the Throne—Angels, Elders, Animals—fell on their faces before the Throne and worshiped God, 12 singing: Oh, Yes! The blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving, The honor and power and strength, To our God forever and ever and ever! Oh, Yes! THE GREATEST THANKSGIVING God has invited us to this Thanksgiving service!! How wonderful it will be to stand with our departed loved ones and sing praises to our God. The multitude of angels will sing the Hallelujah Chorus in perfect pitch and we can join in with them. We will feel the vibration of praise and be basked in the Glory of God. At that moment the cure of cancer and health diseases and all our infirmities will disappear. We will fall to our knees before the Throne and worship God in unity. This will be the perfect Thanksgiving service and we will give honor and power and applaud his strength forever and ever. Oh Yes you want to be there. Believe in the Lord and repent and invite Him into your heart this thanksgiving if you are not in a relationship with him. PRAYER SUGGESTION Dear Jesus I claim you as my Lord and Savior, forgive and save me today. I will follow you always. Amen” Have a blessed Thanksgiving day, making sure that those around you know whom your giving thanks to.
