There are things that fathers and all parents can do to help their children grow into godly and successful people, but there are also things that are out of the parents' hands. We must have the humility to realize our limitations and partner with God to do what we cannot. Without him we can do nothing.

As David was on the run from Absalom's attempted coup, God saw fit to give him a couple of tests to see how he would respond to them. In moments of crisis, most people don't want even more added to their plate, but that is the way God often works.

In your life, do you blend in with your surroundings and do whatever it takes to fit in and be accepted, or do you stand out and contrast with the world around you? Jesus came to earth as the Light of the world, and he calls us to shine as lights in a dark world so that they will see our good works and glorify the Father.

The church of Corinth had been led astray by false teachers that came in, so he showed them the problem with the false teachers and gave his autobiography of suffering to show his heart of love. If he were in it for the money or a comfortable life, he never would have allowed himself to suffer so much. And if we suffer with Jesus, he will reward us for all eternity. It is worth it.

When Absalom tried to take over the kingdom, David took his men and families and fled. He left the city and crossed the brook Kidron in sorrow. About 1,000 years later, Jesus crossed the same brook in sorrow, but for a very different reason. David crossed it because of his own sin, Jesus for our sin.

Many times our own worst enemy is ourselves, and a tool God has given us to overcome ourselves at these moments is love. The greatest command in all the Bible is to love.

The church at Corinth had been unduly influenced by false teachers that had come in. They were being led away from Paul and, more importantly, from God. And so Paul stepped in with a godly jealousy to keep them back from destruction. We need this godly jealousy in our lives to warn others in the same situation.

There were many times in David's life that he had enemies on every side. As Absalom put together a coup to overthrow the government, these enemies to David are from his own family and his own inner circle of advisers. Each of these people were carrying a specific grudge and had been overcome by bitterness. And eventually each of them were destroyed. Bitterness always ends in judgment.

Israel couldn't make up their minds. Was it a good thing that they had been delivered from Egypt or a bad thing? They went back and forth and were double minded. Someone that is double minded will be unstable in every area of life. We need to be single minded toward the things of God and decide in advance that we will follow him.
