the part to the throne

Anytime God describes someone as a man after his own heart, ‘study them very well and carefully. A clear example is the life of David.

He had a humble beginning but a great finish. David began as a shepherd and ended up as a king. The chances of that happening were slim to none. In those days shepherds were so low in the totem pole that they couldn’t testify in a law court, their words wasn’t considered reliable. Yet David ended up writing the mostly read and loved psalms of all time.

When you invite God into your life He cancels the liability of your past and re-writes your future. But you must choose what he has chosen for you. There’s an interesting contrast between Paul and David. Paul sowed his wild oats before he met Christ, then went on to live an exemplary life. David became king at 30 : yet during his forty years in leadership, he experienced devastating failures. There are two lessons to be learned from these.

1. Don’t rush to judgment. It is not over until God says it is over. David’s story is a clear warning to the transgressor, a rebuke to the self-righteous, a testimony to the justice of God that won’t allow us to escape our consequences, and to his love that will never let go of us.
2.  God can bring good out of it. He can take every experience you’ve been through, both positive and negative, and make it work for good, either your good or the good of others. When you seek to fulfill God’s purpose in spite of your flaws, He makes all things work together for good. Romans 8:28

WHO TAKES THE CREDIT?

David was anointed to be king his teens but he only ascended the throne at thirty. Just check this out

1. God calls the man. In spite of being un appreciated by his family, and over looked by the prophet Samuel, God picked David. He also picked Deborah to lead the nation in a male dominated society. Stop trying to figure God out, and stop comparing yourself to others!
2. God decides the plan. Being confident of this very thing, that he who has begun a good work in you will complete it. Phil 1:6.   David never thought it will take him ducking the spears of Saul the king, living in caves and working with 600 misfits who redefine the word dysfunctional. God trains you in a small sphere so you can handle bigger ones.
3. God knows the span of time required. So the part to the throne takes patience, perseverance, commitment, plan work, endurance, until Potiphar and his wife knelt before Joseph.
