2 Samuel 2: Are You for Israel?

2 Samuel 2 contrasts David, who sought God’s direction before taking the throne, with Ish-bosheth, who was made king by Abner for political purposes. Their story raises the question of whether we are pursuing God’s purposes for His people or simply protecting our own position, power, and prominence. Like the question asked by a six-year-old survivor in Sderot, “Are you with Israel?” challenges us to consider whether we are living for a bigger purpose than our own advancement. ------------------------------------------------ Chapter by Chapter: A daily podcast with Pastor Tim Dilena that walks you through the entire Bible – one chapter at a time.
