9/7/2015 0 Comments Prayer - Lesson 2If I were to describe David to anyone, I would say several things. One, he was a man after God's own heart (1 Sam 13:14); Two, he was a mighty conqueror (1 Samuel 17-18): Three, he was a faithful friend (1 Sam 20 + 2 Sam 9); Four, He was a skilled musician (2 Samuel 22:1); Five, he found his strength in the Lord (2 Sam 30:6).
Of his early life, we do not know details, but we do know that he trusted fully upon the Lord to guide, direct and strengthen him for the task of shepherding his fathers sheep. We also know that he often played his harp and sang songs to the Lord. Many of his songs (Psalms) have been recorded, and within them we do truly get to see his heart. Before we start digging into the Psalms, let us take a look at other times that David prayed: Time after time we see him "inquiring of the Lord" before making decisions to move forward in battle, or other areas, such as in preparing to build the temple (2 Samuel 7:8-16). We also see his obedience to the answers of those prayers, even when it meant that he would not be able to follow after a dream, or, like in the case of his son, loosing something of great importance to him.
