2 SAMUEL 8

2 SAMUEL 8

2 SAMUEL 8

David’s name is found twenty-one times in chap. 8. God magnified David’s name because David did the will of God (v. 13). Exalt yourself and God will humble you, but humble yourself and God will exalt you (1 Pet. 5:5–6).

God gave David victory, and David used each victory to serve the Lord (v. 11). David knew that he would not build the temple, but he risked his life to gather the wealth Solomon would need to do the job. If God gives your dream to somebody else, help him or her fulfill it.

David recovered lost territory and gained new territory, a good example for us to follow in our spiritual walk and warfare.
