1 SAMUEL 13
Pastor Rick
Jackson
I. THE
OUTWARD EXPRESSION
1. Took
Credit He Didn’t Deserve [v. 1-4]
2. Took
Liberties He Shouldn’t Demand [v. 5-9]
3. Refused
Responsibility He Should Accept [v. 10-12]
II. THE
INWARD EXPRESSION
1. Foolishness [v. 13a, 26:21]
Then said
Saul, I have sinned: return, my son David: for I will no more do thee harm,
because my soul was precious in thine eyes this day: behold, I have played the
fool, and have erred exceedingly .
2.
Disobedience [v. 13b]
3. Heart For Self [v. 14, Gal. 5:24, 6:14, Col.
3:15]
And they
that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
But God
forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom
the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.
And let the
peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body;
and be ye thankful.
In the
Christian’s heart there are two places- a cross and a throne- Christ is on one,
self is on the other- [the decision is yours]
III. THE
OUTWARD MANIFESTATION
1.
Opportunity Lost [v.15, Proverbs 28:13]
He that
covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them
shall have mercy.
2.
Opposition Looms [v. 16-21]
3.
Opportunities Limited [v. 22-23]
