God judged the sin of David and all of Israel by killing 70,000 people with disease in three days. But all of a sudden, God stopped the judgment and showed mercy. David knew God as a God whose mercies are great. He cannot ignore sin, but his mercy overcomes his judgment to those that turn to him and confess their sin.

What would you do with your time remaining if you were told you only had 30 days to live? Would you continue with business as usual, doing everything the same as you have been doing, or would you dramatically change everything? What are the most important things in the world to you?

One day David decided to number the people of Israel. While it can seem harmless to some, God was greatly displeased and horrible consequences came because David in pride had taken his eyes off God and began to trust in man for his security and well being. May we realize our deep need for God alone at all times.

Jesus gave us an example of self-denial that mirrored his instructions to us. He told us to not seek to save our lives but to lose them for him and the gospel. All influence to the opposite wars against our souls and keeps us from experiencing the blessing of following our Lord. We need to watch out for the world and our flesh in this way.

David compiled a list of men that had done great exploits for him and endangered their lives out of love for him. They teach us great examples of character, bravery, and love. God will also have a list of distinguished servants that he will anounce one day. Will you be on it?

If someone doesn't have to live a good life to become a Christian, keep his salvation, or prove that he is saved, then why go to the effort to live a good life? We concentrate on that in this conclusion to the series "Faith and Works."

As David reached the end of such a distinguished life for God, his last words showed the necessity of fearing God in life. The #1 thing God looks for in a leader is someone that is just and that fears him. He will bless the righteous and judge the wicked.

Some teach that all believers will continue in good works to the end of their lives or they were never saved to begin with. This is a lie that can be reworded, I can save myself or keep myself saved by my faithfulness. There is no one that continues in faithfulness throughout life, and Scripture is replete with examples of believers that have fallen away from God as well as commands from God to remain faithful and not fall away, which commands would be superfluous if all believers were going to be faithful anyway. We are not kept by our faithfulness but by the power and promise of God.

When David had opportunity to receive any praise to himself, he deflected it all to God. For his past victories, present blessings, or future decisions, he recognized God at every turn and was careful to give him the glory due his name. May we never receive glory to ourselves and rob God of his praise and rob the world of hearing of his majesty.
