What has happened in David’s life so far:

• Been Anointed as King
• Defeated Goliath
• Survived Saul Hunting Him
• Ruled the Souther Kingdom of Judah for 7.5 years
• United Israel’s Divided Kingdom
• Established Jerusalem
• Fallen into sin with Bathsheba
• Restored back into fellowship with God

Today we will finish the life of David. Yes he will die, but what we want to focus on is how did David live after He was restored.

David came to realize how magnificent God was after he realized how sinful he was and how forgiving God is.

The depth of our realization of our sinfulness should determine the depth of our service to the King, love for the Lord, and sacrifice for the Saviour.

The greatest evidence of restoration is not simply that God forgives us—it is that we begin living for SOMEONE bigger than ourselves.

After David’s greatest failure, the remainder of his life wasn’t about making a name for himself. It was about preparing the next generation to worship God.

Far to often we spend much of our life accumulating things, building a kingdom for ourselves, and seeking comfort for our days.

This morning we will see 5 key things that David did to prepare the next generation to worship God and how we can do them too.

You see This life that we live now is not meant to be lived for ourself but rather it is to be lived as a sacrifice to God and a service to others.
