SERMON | Warrior Poet | 'Pt. 15 - The Danger Inside You in the Wilderness | 1 Samuel 24-26
May 26, 2024 • John Murphy
In this sermon, Pastor John Murphy discusses three tests David faces in the wilderness: refraining from killing Saul in a cave, heeding Abigail’s wise counsel to avoid unnecessary bloodshed, and resisting the urge to kill Saul again, highlighting the dangers of taking matters into one's own hands, rejecting God’s grace, and justifying wrong actions. Each test reveals internal struggles and emphasizes trusting God's timing and wisdom. Parallels are drawn to Jesus’ perfect responses to his own wilderness tests, offering believers grace and strength through his example.
