2020 - Prep for 2021

New Year – New opportunity

New Challenges

New Victories

New Relationships

New opportunities for reconciliation.

 

I believe that 2020 was a year of testing and preparation for the church.

We were tested in many fashions throughout the year.  How did you do with the time of testing?  What did it show you about you?  How did 2020 shape you and mold you more into the image of Jesus?

 

  • In chapter 17 Jesse says to his son – David I need you to run an errand – deliver bread and cheese and bring back news of the battle. 

     

  • Then David is tested by a conversation with Eliab his older brother. 

     

  • David would be tested by Saul. 

 

1 Samuel 17:33

Saul replied, "You are not able to go out against this Philistine and fight him; you are only a boy, and he has been a fighting man from his youth."

 

1 Samuel 17:39

David fastened on his sword over the tunic and tried walking around, because he was not used to them. "I cannot go in these," he said to Saul, "because I am not used to them." So he took them off.
