“The consequences of your sins belongs to you” 2 Samuel 12:1-25  “What's done in the dark will come to the light!

One evening as David was walking on the roof of his home, he noticed a beautiful woman in another house bathing. He failed to control his passions; and in violation of the Seventh Commandment, he committed adultery. The story of David and Bathsheba is well-known. When Bathsheba found she was pregnant, David tried to cover up his sin. When that didn’t work, he committed a further sin by arranging for her husband, Uriah, to be killed on the battlefield. Even though David tried to conceal what had happened, it was possible that news of these incidents became known to others in the nation bringing shame to God. Nothing escaped God, and He was aware of David’s sins: “The thing that David had done displeased the LORD”. This is an important lesson we should keep in mind in our own lives. The apostle Paul warns, “Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall” (1 Corinthians 10:12). God is aware of our thoughts and actions every day. Jesus Christ death, burial, and resurrection took away our sins, but the consequences of those sins belong to us.

We must realize that praying and fasting is making our petition known unto God, but the outcome belongs to God, His will not ours.  We should always communicate our request unto God, but when the verdict the last word of God is in we should do as David did worship God for His wisdom.  David accepted his consequences repented and kept it moving.  join us for the outcome.
