David is still reaping what he had sown. One of the judgments given by Nathan is fulfilled by David's son Absalom. Galatians 6:7 is fulfilled in this lesson.
This lesson teaches a lot about personal influence. The woman of Tekoah and Absalom demonstrate two methods for getting your way with others, both of which have an ungodly side to them. How does the Lord want us to influence others?
This chapter is a living illustration of James 1:14-15. Amnon is tempted with his own lust. He falls into sin and it leads to his death. This lesson is a warning to us all.
In this chapter, we learn three great lessons: 1) your sin will surely catch up with you and find you out; 2) the judgment of sin is more than you can ever imagine; 3) God shows great mercy to those who truly repent and turn to Him.
In this chapter, one of the great men of God in the Bible falls deeply into sin. How could David do such a thing?
