A Sustaining Promise
2 Samuel 24:1-25
Our series through 1 and 2 Samuel concludes today on an encouraging note. While we may not always fully understand challenging passages of Scripture, we do well to look to other, clearer passages to help us make sense. Because of God’s character displayed through the whole of Scripture, we can gladly follow him even in uncertainty. When we recognize the sinful posture of our hearts, as with King David, may we cultivate tender consciences and cast ourselves upon Yahweh’s covenant mercy, publicly bearing witness to his utter faithfulness to accomplish his kingdom purposes.
