Description

Pastor Gerrit begins the study of 2 Samuel, tracing the continuation of God’s unfolding plan for His people through David’s rise to leadership. With Saul’s death and David’s ascension to the throne, the passage reveals David’s remarkable response, not of celebration, but of mourning and honor toward Saul and Jonathan. Pastor Gerrit reflects on how David avoided bitterness by trusting God’s sovereignty, showing radical patience, and refusing to speak evil of those who wronged him. The message encourages believers to guard their hearts from resentment and to trust that God’s purposes prevail even through hardship.
