“You are witnesses of these things. I am going to send you what my Father has promised; but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.”
SUNDAY IS WHERE WE GATHER.
BUT MONDAY IS WHERE THE MISSION BEGINS.
Acts 2:42-47
They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.
GOD IS IN THE ORDINARY
Believers devoted themselves to these four things:
THE APOSTLE’S TEACHING
FELLOWSHIP
BREAKING BREAD

“Make Heaven Crowded”
John 11:17–27
On his arrival, Jesus found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb for four days. Now Bethany was less than two miles from Jerusalem, and many Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them in the loss of their brother. When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet him, but Mary stayed at home. “Lord,” Martha said to Jesus, “if you had been here, my brother would not have died. But I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask.” Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.” Martha answered, “I know he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.” Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?” “Yes, Lord,” she replied, “I believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, who is to come into the world.”
John 11:21
“Lord,” Martha said to Jesus, “if you had been here, my brother would not have died.

“I know he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”

A deep longing completely fulfilled in the person of Jesus.
DEATH IS REAL, BUT IT IS NOT THE END
John 11:33–36
When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled. “Where have you laid him?” he asked.“Come and see, Lord,” they replied. Jesus wept. Then the Jews said, “See how he loved him!”
John 11:35
Jesus wept.

Do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope.
WHEN A BELIEVER DIES, THEY ARE WITH JESUS
2 Corinthians 5:6–8
Therefore we are always confident and know that as long as we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord. For we live by faith, not by sight. We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord.
Luke 23:42–43
“Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.” Jesus answered him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.”
John 14:1-3
“Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.
I GO TO PREPARE A PLACE
Revelation 21:3–5
And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”
John 11:25-26
Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?

It was just before the Passover Festival. Jesus knew that the hour had come for him to leave this world and go to the Father. Having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.
John 13:14-15
Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet. I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you.

“Do you want to be healed?”
Your current situation may not be your fault, but how you respond is now your responsibility.
John 5:1-9
Some time later, Jesus went up to Jerusalem for one of the Jewish festivals. 2 Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool, which in Aramaic is called Bethesda and which is surrounded by five covered colonnades. Here a great number of disabled people used to lie—the blind, the lame, the paralyzed. One who was there had been an invalid for thirty-eight years.
When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to get well?” “Sir,” the invalid replied, “I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am trying to get in, someone else goes down ahead of me.” Then Jesus said to him, “Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.” At once the man was cured; he picked up his mat and walked.
John 5:6
When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to get well?”

“Thirsty Hearts”
Now he had to go through Samaria.
John 4:6-9
And Jesus, tired as he was from the journey, sat down by the well. It was about noon. When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Will you give me a drink?” (His disciples had gone into the town to buy food.) The Samaritan woman said to him, “You are a Jew and I am a Samaritan woman. How can you ask me for a drink?” (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.)
John 4:10-13
Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water.”
“Sir,” the woman said, “you have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where can you get this living water? Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did also his sons and his livestock?”
Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again.”
GOD USES OUR PHYSICAL NEEDS TO MEET OUR SPIRITUAL ONES
A good thing becomes dangerous when I ask it to give me what only God can give me.
John 4:14
“But whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”
John 4:15-18
The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water so that I won’t get thirsty and have to keep coming here to draw water.”
He told her, “Go, call your husband and come back.”
“I have no husband,” she replied.
Jesus said to her, “You are right when you say you have no husband. The fact is, you have had five husbands, and the man you now have is not your husband. What you have just said is quite true.”
John 4:25-26
The woman said, “I know that Messiah” (called Christ) “is coming. When he comes, he will explain everything to us.”
Then Jesus declared, “I, the one speaking to you—I am he.”
John 4:28-29
Then, leaving her water jar, the woman went back to the town and said to the people, “Come, see a man who told me everything I ever did. Could this be the Messiah?”
John 4:39-42
Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in him because of the woman’s testimony, “He told me everything I ever did.”
So when the Samaritans came to him, they urged him to stay with them, and he stayed two days. And because of his words many more became believers.
They said to the woman, “We no longer believe just because of what you said; now we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this man really is the Savior of the world.”

“Born Again”
John 3:1-21
Now there was a Pharisee, a man named Nicodemus who was a member of the Jewish ruling council. He came to Jesus at night and said, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the signs you are doing if God were not with him.” Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.”
“How can someone be born when they are old?” Nicodemus asked. “Surely they cannot enter a second time into their mother’s womb to be born!” Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”
“How can this be?” Nicodemus asked. “You are Israel’s teacher,” said Jesus, “and do you not understand these things? Very truly I tell you, we speak of what we know, and we testify to what we have seen, but still you people do not accept our testimony. I have spoken to you of earthly things and you do not believe; how then will you believe if I speak of heavenly things? No one has ever gone into heaven except the one who came from heaven—the Son of Man. Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him.”
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God.
YOU CAN KNOW ALL ABOUT JESUS WITHOUT TRULY KNOWING JESUS

John 3:2
He came to Jesus at night and said, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the signs you are doing if God were not with him.”
John 3:3
Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.”
YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN
John 3:5-6
Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit.
John 3:14-15

Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God.
John 7:50–51
Nicodemus, who had gone to Jesus earlier and who was one of their own number, asked, “Does our law condemn a man without first hearing him to find out what he has been doing?”
John 19:39–40
He was accompanied by Nicodemus, the man who earlier had visited Jesus at night. Nicodemus brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds. Taking Jesus’ body, the two of them wrapped it, with the spices, in strips of linen. This was in accordance with Jewish burial customs.

Ezekiel 36:25–27 — Long before Jesus spoke to Nicodemus about being “born of water and the Spirit,” God promised a day when He would cleanse His people, give them a new heart, put a new spirit within them, and place His Spirit in them. Christianity is not primarily about becoming a more disciplined version of yourself. The gospel is the promise that God can do within us what we could never accomplish for ourselves: make us new.
Titus 3:3–7 — Paul describes salvation as “the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit.” We are not saved because of righteous things we have done, but because of God’s mercy. Religion asks, “What can I do to make myself acceptable to God?” The gospel announces what God has done for us through Jesus and what His Spirit now does within us.
2 Corinthians 5:17 — “If anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come.” Jesus did not come simply to improve our behavior, give us better principles, or make bad people more respectable. He came to make spiritually dead people alive. New birth means our identity, desires, direction, and relationship with God begin to change from the inside out.
John 19:38–40 — When we first meet Nicodemus, he comes to Jesus at night. By the end of John’s Gospel, he publicly helps care for the crucified body of Jesus. The man who once approached Jesus cautiously in the darkness is eventually willing to identify himself with Jesus when it could cost him something. New birth does not mean instant perfection, but it does produce a new direction. The question is not simply whether you know things about Jesus, but whether knowing Jesus is actually changing you.
Heart Questions
Are you trying to improve your old life or have you actually surrendered it to Jesus? It is possible to be moral, religious, knowledgeable, successful, and respected and still miss what Jesus says we need most. Where might you be depending on your goodness, church background, knowledge, accomplishments, or reputation instead of Christ?
Do you know about Jesus, or do you actually know Jesus? Nicodemus respected Jesus and even believed He had come from God, but Jesus still confronted him with his need for new birth. Has your faith become mostly information, familiarity, and religious activity or is there evidence of a real relationship with Jesus?
Where is Jesus calling you out of the darkness and into the light? Nicodemus first came privately at night, later spoke up for Jesus, and eventually publicly identified himself with Him. What are you still hiding, protecting, or afraid to surrender? What would stepping into the light look like for you this week?
Prayer
Father, I confess that I cannot save myself. My goodness cannot save me. My knowledge cannot save me. My success, reputation, accomplishments, and religious background cannot give me spiritual life. I need what only You can give. Thank You for loving me enough to send Jesus, not to condemn a dying world, but to save it. Thank You that Jesus was lifted up for me and that through Him I can receive forgiveness, eternal life, and a new heart.
Holy Spirit, expose the places where I have settled for outward religion without inward transformation. Bring me out of darkness and into the light. Change my desires, reshape my identity, and produce in me the life that I could never manufacture on my own.
I don't want to simply know about Jesus. I want to know Him, follow Him, and be transformed by Him. Jesus, make me new. Amen.

“The True & Better King”
THE SPIRIT OF SAUL IN ALL OF US
DAVID SHOWS US THE BEAUTY AND BROKENNESS OF A HUMAN KING
Psalm 51:1–4
Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion blot out my transgressions. Wash away all my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin. For I know my transgressions, and my sin is always before me. Against you, you only, have I sinned and done what is evil in your sight; so you are right in your verdict and justified when you judge.
Psalm 51:10–12
Create in me a pure heart, O God,
and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Do not cast me from your presence
or take your Holy Spirit from me.
Restore to me the joy of your salvation
and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.
GOD MAKES A PROMISE
2 Samuel 7:11–16
“‘The Lord declares to you that the Lord himself will establish a house for you: When your days are over and you rest with your ancestors, I will raise up your offspring to succeed you, your own flesh and blood, and I will establish his kingdom. He is the one who will build a house for my Name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever. I will be his father, and he will be my son. When he does wrong, I will punish him with a rod wielded by men, with floggings inflicted by human hands. But my love will never be taken away from him, as I took it away from Saul, whom I removed from before you. Your house and your kingdom will endure forever before me; your throne will be established forever.’”
JESUS IS THE PROMISED KING
Luke 1:31–33
You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, and he will reign over Jacob’s descendants forever; his kingdom will never end.”
Luke 22:19–20
He took some bread and gave thanks to God for it. Then he broke it in pieces and gave it to the disciples, saying, “This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” After supper he took another cup of wine and said, “This cup is the new covenant between God and his people—an agreement confirmed with my blood, which is poured out as a sacrifice for you.

Psalm 51:1–12 — David’s greatest distinction was not that he never failed, but that when his sin was exposed, he eventually stopped defending himself and repented. Notice what David asks God to do: have mercy, cleanse me, create in me a pure heart, renew me. Biblical repentance is more than feeling guilty; it is surrendering what God exposes instead of protecting it. This is central to this week’s contrast between Saul’s image management and David’s brokenness.
2 Samuel 7:11–16 — God makes David a covenant promise: his house, kingdom, and throne will endure forever. The remarkable part is where the weight of the promise rests, not on David’s faithfulness, but on God’s. David, Solomon, and the kings after them would fail, but God’s promise remained.
Luke 1:31–33 — Centuries later, the angel Gabriel announces that Jesus will receive “the throne of his father David” and that His kingdom “will never end.” Jesus is not simply another king in David’s line; He is the true and better King toward whom the entire story has been pointing.
Hebrews 4:14–16 — Every human leader fails, and every one of us eventually discovers that we cannot conquer the sin within ourselves. Jesus is different: He was tempted as we are, yet remained without sin. Because our King is also our Savior, we can approach Him honestly and receive mercy and grace instead of hiding.
Heart Questions
What is sitting on the throne of your heart right now? Fear, approval, money, comfort, ambition, desire, reputation, wounds, and control can all become rival kings. Where are your decisions revealing that something besides Jesus may be ruling you?
When God exposes sin in you, do you respond more like Saul or David? Do you explain it, minimize it, blame someone else, manage how others perceive you—or allow yourself to be broken by it? What would honest repentance look like in your life right now?
Are you trusting your faithfulness to God or God’s faithfulness to you? David failed. Every king after David failed. We fail too. How would your relationship with God change if you truly believed that your salvation rests not on the strength of your promise to Him, but on the strength of His promise to you in Jesus?
Prayer
Father, I confess that there are places in my heart where I still want the throne. Fear wants to rule me. Control wants to rule me. My desires, reputation, wounds, and plans compete for a place that belongs only to Jesus. Expose what I have been protecting and give me the courage to repent instead of defend myself. Thank You that my hope does not rest in my ability to be a better Saul or even a better David, but in Jesus, the true and better King. Thank You that He remained faithful where every other king failed and gave Himself for me. Today I lay down my crown and trust again in Your grace. Jesus Christ is King. Amen.

A TALE OF TWO KINGS
“Spears and Caves”
1 Samuel 8:5-12
Whatever mission Saul sent him on, David was so successful that Saul gave him a high rank in the army. This pleased all the troops, and Saul’s officers as well. When the men were returning home after David had killed the Philistine, the women came out from all the towns of Israel to meet King Saul with singing and dancing, with joyful songs and with timbrels and lyres. As they danced, they sang: “Saul has slain his thousands, and David his tens of thousands.” Saul was very angry; this refrain displeased him greatly. “They have credited David with tens of thousands,” he thought, “but me with only thousands. What more can he get but the kingdom?” And from that time on Saul kept a close eye on David. The next day an evil spirit from God came forcefully on Saul. He was prophesying in his house, while David was playing the lyre, as he usually did. Saul had a spear in his hand11 and he hurled it, saying to himself, “I’ll pin David to the wall.” But David eluded him twice. Saul was afraid of David, because the Lord was with David but had departed from Saul.

Romans 12:17–21 — Paul tells us not to repay evil for evil or take revenge, but to overcome evil with good. Consider how David models this when Saul’s hatred gives him every justification to retaliate.
1 Peter 2:21–23 — Jesus was insulted and mistreated, yet He did not retaliate. Instead, He “entrusted himself to him who judges justly.” Compare Jesus’ response with David’s refusal to take Saul’s life.
Genesis 50:15–21 — Joseph had both the opportunity and the power to punish the brothers who wounded him. Instead, he recognized that God was able to accomplish His purposes even through what others intended for evil.
Heart Questions
What spear are you tempted to throw back? Who has hurt, rejected, betrayed, criticized, or mistreated you—and what would retaliation look like for you, even if it is subtle?
Has someone else’s sin begun reproducing itself in you? Consider whether another person’s anger has made you angry, their bitterness has made you bitter, or their attempts to control you have made you controlling. What would it look like to refuse to become what wounded you?
Have you truly surrendered the judgment seat to God? Is there someone you have stopped actively retaliating against but still secretly want to see punished, exposed, embarrassed, or brought down? Ask God what it would mean to entrust justice fully to Him.
Prayer
Father, when I am handed a spear, give me the strength not to throw it back. Guard my heart from allowing the sins of others to reproduce themselves in me. When I have the opportunity to retaliate, remind me that You are the righteous Judge and I do not need to take Your seat. Teach me to forgive as I have been forgiven, to trust Your timing, and to overcome evil with good. Make my heart more like Jesus, even when I have been deeply wounded. Amen.

“God Looks at the Heart”
1 Samuel 16:1
The LORD said to Samuel, “How long will you mourn for Saul, since I have rejected him as king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil and be on your way; I am sending you to Jesse of Bethlehem. I have chosen one of his sons to be king.”
1 Samuel 16:6–7
When they arrived, Samuel saw Eliab and thought, “Surely the Lord’s anointed stands here before the Lord.” But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”
1 Samuel 16:7b
People look at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.
WE SPEND SO MUCH ENERGY MANAGING WHAT PEOPLE CAN SEE WHILE GOD IS LOOKING AT WHAT THEY CAN’T.
1 Samuel 16:11
So he asked Jesse, ‘Are these all the sons you have?’ ‘There is still the youngest,’ Jesse answered. ‘He is tending the sheep.’ Samuel said, ‘Send for him; we will not sit down until he arrives.’
1 Samuel 16:12–13
Then the LORD said, “Rise and anoint him; this is the one.” So Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the presence of his brothers, and from that day on the Spirit of the LORD came powerfully upon David.

Matthew 6:1–6 — Jesus warns against practicing righteousness simply to be seen by others and points us toward a faithfulness that seeks the Father’s approval rather than people’s applause.
Luke 16:15 — Jesus reminds us that what people highly value is not always what God values. God knows our hearts even when appearances tell a different story.
Heart Questions
If God looked beneath everything other people see, what would He find in my heart right now? Are there motives, habits, attitudes, or compromises I have become good at hiding or ignoring?
Where am I most tempted to care more about appearing faithful than actually being faithful? What would it look like for the private me to more closely match the public me?
Am I being faithful in the “pasture” God has me in right now? Where might God be using an unseen or ordinary season to shape my character and prepare me for what is ahead?
Prayer
Father, You see me completely. You know what others see, and You know everything beneath the surface. Search my heart and reveal anything in me that does not honor You. Forgive me for the places where I have cared more about appearances than obedience. Make the private me match the public me. Give me a heart that desires Your approval more than the applause of people, and teach me to be faithful even when nobody is watching. When I feel overlooked, remind me that I am never unseen by You. Use every hidden season to shape my character and prepare me for whatever You have ahead. Above everything else, make my heart fully Yours. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Remember what the Amalekites did to you along the way when you came out of Egypt. When you were weary and worn out, they met you on your journey and attacked all who were lagging behind; they had no fear of God.
WILL I TRUST GOD ONLY WHEN I UNDERSTAND HIM?
1 Samuel 15:7–9
Then Saul attacked the Amalekites all the way from Havilah to Shur, near the eastern border of Egypt. He took Agag king of the Amalekites alive, and all his people he totally destroyed with the sword. 9 But Saul and the army spared Agag and the best of the sheep and cattle, the fat calves and lambs—everything that was good. These they were unwilling to destroy completely, but everything that was despised and weak they totally destroyed.
PRIDE SETS THE TERMS
SELECTIVE OBEDIENCE IS STILL DISOBEDIENCE
PRIDE JUSTIFIES WHAT IT WANTS
1 Samuel 15:13–15
When Samuel reached him, Saul said, “The Lord bless you! I have carried out the Lord’s instructions.” But Samuel said, “What then is this bleating of sheep in my ears? What is this lowing of cattle that I hear?” Saul answered, “The soldiers brought them from the Amalekites; they spared the best of the sheep and cattle to sacrifice to the Lord your God, but we totally destroyed the rest.”
1 Samuel 15:16
“Enough!” Samuel said to Saul. “Let me tell you what the LORD said to me last night.”
1 Samuel 15:22
“Does the LORD delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the LORD? To obey is better than sacrifice.”
WHAT IS STILL BLEATING IN YOUR LIFE?
PRIDE PROTECTS ITS IMAGE
1 Samuel 15:24
“I have sinned. I violated the LORD’s command and your instructions. I was afraid of the men and so I gave in to them.”
1 Samuel 15:30
“I have sinned. But please honor me before the elders of my people and before Israel.”

A TALE OF TWO KINGS
“When Fear Takes Over”
1 Samuel 8:19–20
No! We want a king over us. Then we will be like all the other nations, with a king to lead us and to go out before us and fight our battles.
NEVER JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER
1 Samuel 9:1–2
1 There was a Benjamite, a man of standing, whose name was Kish… 2 Kish had a son named Saul, as handsome a young man as could be found anywhere in Israel, and he was a head taller than anyone else.
FEAR CAN OFTEN LOOK REMARKABLY IMPRESSIVE.
WEARING A CLOAK OF CONFIDENCE.
1 Samuel 10:20–24
When Samuel had all Israel come forward by tribes, the tribe of Benjamin was taken by lot. Then he brought forward the tribe of Benjamin, clan by clan, and Matri’s clan was taken. Finally Saul son of Kish was taken. But when they looked for him, he was not to be found. So they inquired further of the Lord, “Has the man come here yet?”
And the Lord said, “Yes, he has hidden himself among the supplies.” They ran and brought him out, and as he stood among the people he was a head taller than any of the others. Samuel said to all the people, “Do you see the man the Lord has chosen? There is no one like him among all the people.”
PRESSURE DOESN’T CREATE CHARACTER.
IT REVEALS WHAT HAS ALWAYS BEEN THERE
1 Samuel 13:8–12
He waited seven days, the time set by Samuel; but Samuel did not come to Gilgal, and Saul’s men began to scatter. So he said, “Bring me the burnt offering and the fellowship offerings.” And Saul offered up the burnt offering. Just as he finished making the offering, Samuel arrived, and Saul went out to greet him. “What have you done?” asked Samuel. Saul replied, “When I saw that the men were scattering, and that you did not come at the set time, and that the Philistines were assembling at Mikmash, I thought, ‘Now the Philistines will come down against me at Gilgal, and I have not sought the Lord’s favor.’ So I felt compelled to offer the burnt offering.”
EVERY ACT OF DISOBEDIENCE BEGINS WITH A FAILURE TO TRUST GOD’S CHARACTER
1 Samuel 13:13–14
“You have done a foolish thing,” Samuel said. “You have not kept the command the Lord your God gave you; if you had, he would have established your kingdom over Israel for all time. But now your kingdom will not endure; the Lord has sought out a man after his own heart and appointed him ruler of his people, because you have not kept the Lord’s command.”
The spirit of Saul is fundamentally the spirit of self-preservation.

A TALE OF TWO KINGS
“GIVE THEM WHAT THEY WANT”
Judges 21:25 ESV
"In those days there was no king in Israel. Everyone did what was right in his own eyes."
1 Samuel 8:5–9
They said to him, "You are old, and your sons do not follow your ways; now appoint a king to lead us, such as all the other nations have." But when they said, "Give us a king to lead us," this displeased Samuel; so he prayed to the Lord. And the Lord told him: "Listen to all that the people are saying to you; it is not you they have rejected, but they have rejected me as their king. As they have done from the day I brought them up out of Egypt until this day, forsaking me and serving other gods, so they are doing to you. Now listen to them; but warn them solemnly and let them know what the king who will reign over them will claim as his rights."
I WANT WHAT I WANT
I WANT WHAT THEY HAVE
1 Samuel 8:18–22
When that day comes, you will cry out for relief from the king you have chosen, but the Lord will not answer you in that day. But the people refused to listen to Samuel.
"No!" they said. "We want a king over us." "Then we will be like all the other nations, with a king to lead us and to go out before us and fight our battles." When Samuel heard all that the people said, he repeated it before the Lord. The Lord answered, "Listen to them and give them a king."
GOD GIVES US WHAT WE WANT
Romans 1:24, 26, 28
God gave them over to their sinful desires. He gave them over to shameful lust. God gave them over to a depraved mind.

Trusting God even when your circumstances give you every reason not to.
Habakkuk 3:2
Lord, I have heard of your fame; I stand in awe of your deeds, Lord. Repeat them in our day, in our time make them known; in wrath remember mercy.
Our prayers become worship when our focus shifts from our circumstances to God’s character.
When your view of God gets bigger, your circumstances get smaller. Not because they become insignificant, but because they’re no longer ultimate.
Habakkuk 3:16
I heard and my heart pounded, my lips quivered at the sound; decay crept into my bones, and my legs trembled. Yet I will wait patiently for the day of calamity to come on the nation invading us.
I AM NOT OKAY
Habakkuk 3:17-18
Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will be joyful in God my Savior.

“He positions himself where he is most likely to hear from God.”

Then the Lord replied: 'Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it. For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay. See, the enemy is puffed up; his desires are not upright—but the righteous person will live by his faithfulness.'

Matt 18:20:
For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.”
Matt 28:20:
And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
Philippians 4:13:
I can do all this through him who gives me strength.
John 16:33
In this world you will have trouble
Matthew 6:33
But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness and all these things will be given to you as well
Matthew 6:19
Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth
Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Habakkuk 1:5-11
“Look at the nations and watch—and be utterly amazed. For I am going to do something in your days that you would not believe, even if you were told. I am raising up the Babylonians, that ruthless and impetuous people, who sweep across the whole earth to seize dwellings not their own. They are a feared and dreaded people; they are a law to themselves and promote their own honor. Their horses are swifter than leopards, fiercer than wolves at dusk. Their cavalry gallops headlong; their horsemen come from afar. They fly like an eagle swooping to devour; they all come intent on violence. Their hordes advance like a desert wind and gather prisoners like sand. They mock kings and scoff at rulers. They laugh at all fortified cities; by building earthen ramps they capture them. Then they sweep past like the wind and go on—guilty people, whose own strength is their god.”
Habakkuk 1:12-17
Lord, are you not from everlasting? My God, my Holy One, you will never die. You, Lord, have appointed them to execute judgment; you have ordained them to punish. Your eyes are too pure to look on evil, and you cannot tolerate wrongdoing. Why then do you tolerate the treacherous? Why are you silent while the wicked swallow up those more righteous than themselves? You have made people like the fish in the sea, like the sea creatures that have no ruler. The wicked foe pulls them up with hooks, catches them in his net, and gathers them in his dragnet. Therefore he sacrifices to his net and burns incense to his dragnet, for by his net he lives in luxury and enjoys the choicest food. Is he to keep on emptying his net, destroying nations without mercy?
Habakkuk 2:1
I will stand at my watch and station myself on the ramparts; I will look to see what he will say to me, and what answer I am to give to this complaint.
The World Is More Broken Than We Often Realize
Habakkuk laments real violence, real injustice
Sin and evil are universal — Romans 3:23.
God never rebukes him for the complaint. Noticing evil isn't the problem.
God Is Always Working, Even When His Work Confuses Us
God's answer: Babylon. Not judgment on the wicked out there but judgment that starts at home.
Habakkuk assumed God should judge their evil before His own people's evil.
"We all want justice...
until justice points in our direction."
Faith Waits When
Understanding Cannot
"Faith isn't formed after God explains everything.
Faith is formed while you're waiting for the explanation."

“Wrestle, Don’t Run”
Habakkuk 1:1-4
The prophecy that Habakkuk the prophet received. How long LORD, must I call for help, but you do not listen? Or cry to you, “Violence!” But you do not save? Why do you make me look at injustice? Why do you tolerate wrongdoing? Destruction and violence are before me; there is strife, and conflict abounds. Therefore the law is paralyzed, and justice never prevails. The wicked hem in the righteous, so that justice is perverted.
Prayer isn't presenting a polished version of yourself; it's bringing the real condition of your heart into His presence.
Habakkuk 1:5
“Look at the nations and watch—and be utterly amazed. For I am going to do something in your days that you would not believe, even if you were told.

“Hope That Endures”
HOPE SEES BEYOND PRESENT SUFFERING
Daniel 12:1-4
“At that time Michael, the great prince who protects your people, will arise. There will be a time of distress such as has not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time your people—everyone whose name is found written in the book—will be delivered. Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt. Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever. But you, Daniel, roll up and seal the words of the scroll until the time of the end. Many will go here and there to increase knowledge.”
Our hope is not found in escaping hardship, but in belonging to God.
“Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt.”
HOPE KEEPS GOING
Daniel 12:5-9
Then I, Daniel, looked, and there before me stood two others, one on this bank of the river and one on the opposite bank. One of them said to the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, "How long will it be before these astonishing things are fulfilled?" The man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, lifted his right hand and his left hand toward heaven, and I heard him swear by him who lives forever, saying, "It will be for a time, times and half a time. When the power of the holy people has been finally broken, all these things will be completed." I heard, but I did not understand. So I asked, "My lord, what will the outcome of all this be?" He replied, "Go your way, Daniel, because the words are rolled up and sealed until the time of the end."
Faith is not having every answer. Faith is trusting the One who does.
"Go your way, Daniel."
Daniel 12:13
As for you, go your way till the end. You will rest, and then at the end of the days you will rise to receive your allotted inheritance.

“The Lion’s Den”
Bold Faith in the Public Space
Daniel 5:29-31
Then at Belshazzar's command, Daniel was clothed in purple, a gold chain was placed around his neck, and he was proclaimed the third highest ruler in the kingdom. That very night Belshazzar, king of the Babylonians, was slain, and Darius the Mede took over the kingdom, at the age of sixty-two.
Daniel 6:1-3
It pleased Darius to appoint 120 satraps to rule throughout the kingdom, with three administrators over them, one of whom was Daniel. The satraps were made accountable to them so that the king might not suffer loss. Now Daniel so distinguished himself among the administrators and the satraps by his exceptional qualities that the king planned to set him over the whole kingdom.
BOLD FAITH PRODUCES CHARACTER
Daniel 6:4
At this, the administrators and the satraps tried to find grounds for charges against Daniel in his conduct of government affairs, but they were unable to do so. They could find no corruption in him, because he was trustworthy and neither corrupt nor negligent.
BOLD FAITH WELCOMES ENEMIES
Daniel 6:5-9
Finally these men said, 'We will never find any basis for charges against this man Daniel unless it has something to do with the law of his God.' So these administrators and satraps went as a group to the king and said: 'May King Darius live forever! The royal administrators, prefects, satraps, advisers and governors have all agreed that the king should issue an edict and enforce the decree that anyone who prays to any god or human being during the next thirty days, except to you, Your Majesty, shall be thrown into the lions' den. Now, Your Majesty, issue the decree and put it in writing so that it cannot be altered-in accordance with the law of the Medes and Persians, which cannot be repealed.” So King Dairus put the decree in writing.
Daniel 6:10
Now when Daniel learned that the decree had been published, he went home to his upstairs room where the windows opened toward Jerusalem. Three times a day he got down on his knees and prayed, giving thanks to his God, just as he had done before.
BOLD FAITH DOESN’T CONFORM TO THE PATTERN OF THE WORLD
BOLD FAITH STARTS IN PRIVATE PLACES BEFORE ITS REVEALED IN PUBLIC SPACES
Daniel 6:11-14
"Then these men went as a group and found Daniel praying and asking God for help. So they went to the king and spoke to him about his royal decree: 'Did you not publish a decree that during the next thirty days anyone who prays to any god or human being except to you, Your Majesty, would be thrown into the lions' den?'"
BOLD FAITH TRUSTS GOD WITH THE OUTCOME
Daniel 6:16
"So the king gave the order, and they brought Daniel and threw him into the lions' den. The king said to Daniel, 'May your God, whom you serve continually, rescue you!'"

Daniel 10:5-9
I looked up and saw a man dressed in linen clothing, with a belt of pure gold around his waist. His body looked like a precious gem. His face flashed like lightning, and his eyes flamed like torches. His arms and feet shone like polished bronze, and his voice roared like a vast multitude of people. Only I, Daniel, saw this vision. The men with me saw nothing, but they were suddenly terrified and ran away to hide. So I was left there all alone to see this amazing vision. My strength left me, my face grew deathly pale, and I felt very weak. Then I heard the man speak, and when I heard the sound of his voice, I fainted and lay there with my face to the ground.
Prayer is the most powerful weapon that the Lord gives us. When we pray, battles begin.
Daniel 10:10-11
Just then a hand touched me and lifted me, still trembling, to my hands and knees. And the man said to me, “Daniel, you are very precious to God, so listen carefully to what I have to say to you. Stand up, for I have been sent to you.” When he said this to me, I stood up, still trembling.
Daniel 10:12-14
Then he said, “Don’t be afraid, Daniel. Since the first day you began to pray for understanding and to humble yourself before your God, your request has been heard in heaven. I have come in answer to your prayer. But for twenty-one days the spirit prince of the kingdom of Persia blocked my way. Then Michael, one of the archangels, came to help me, and I left him there with the spirit prince of the kingdom of Persia. Now I am here to explain what will happen to your people in the future, for this vision concerns a time yet to come.”
Just because you can’t see God working, doesn’t mean He isn’t!
Daniel 10:15-19
While he was speaking to me, I looked down at the ground, unable to say a word. Then the one who looked like a man touched my lips, and I opened my mouth and began to speak. I said to the one standing in front of me, “I am filled with anguish because of the vision I have seen, my lord, and I am very weak. How can someone like me, your servant, talk to you, my lord? My strength is gone, and I can hardly breathe.” Then the one who looked like a man touched me again, and I felt my strength returning. “Don’t be afraid,” he said, “for you are very precious to God. Peace! Be encouraged! Be strong!” As he spoke these words to me, I suddenly felt stronger and said to him, “Please speak to me, my lord, for you have strengthened me.”

Daniel 4:19
Daniel answered, “My lord, if only the dream applied to your enemies and its meaning to your adversaries!
Daniel 4:22-27
Your Majesty, you are that tree! You have become great and strong; your greatness has grown until it reaches the sky, and your dominion extends to distant parts of the earth. “Your Majesty saw a holy one, a messenger, coming down from heaven and saying, ‘Cut down the tree and destroy it, but leave the stump, bound with iron and bronze, in the grass of the field, while its roots remain in the ground. Let him be drenched with the dew of heaven; let him live with the wild animals, until seven times pass by for him.’ “This is the interpretation, Your Majesty, and this is the decree the Most High has issued against my lord the king: You will be driven away from people and will live with the wild animals; you will eat grass like the ox and be drenched with the dew of heaven. Seven times will pass by for you until you acknowledge that the Most High is sovereign over all kingdoms on earth and gives them to anyone he wishes. The command to leave the stump of the tree with its roots means that your kingdom will be restored to you when you acknowledge that Heaven rules. Therefore, Your Majesty, be pleased to accept my advice: Renounce your sins by doing what is right, and your wickedness by being kind to the oppressed. It may be that then your prosperity will continue.”
One of God's greatest mercies is a warning.
Daniel 4:27b
…accept my advice: Renounce your sins by doing what is right, and your wickedness by being kind to the oppressed. It may be that then your prosperity will continue.”

PRIDE TAKES CREDIT FOR WHAT GOD BUILT
Daniel 4:29-30
Twelve months later, as the king was walking on the roof of the royal palace of Babylon, he said, “Is not this the great Babylon I have built as the royal residence, by my mighty power and for the glory of my majesty?”
Pride begins when we start taking credit for what God has done.
HUMILITY RESTORES WHAT PRIDE DESTROYS
Daniel 4:34-37
At the end of that time, I, Nebuchadnezzar, raised my eyes toward heaven, and my sanity was restored. Then I praised the Most High; I honored and glorified him who lives forever. His dominion is an eternal dominion; his kingdom endures from generation to generation. All the peoples of the earth are regarded as nothing. He does as he pleases with the powers of heaven and the peoples of the earth.
No one can hold back his hand or say to him: “What have you done?” At the same time that my sanity was restored, my honor and splendor were returned to me for the glory of my kingdom. My advisers and nobles sought me out, and I was restored to my throne and became even greater than before. Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and exalt and glorify the King of heaven, because everything he does is right and all his ways are just. And those who walk in pride he is able to humble.
