2 Samuel 15:32-17:29 | Give it to God

Pastor Gerrit continues through 2 Samuel 15:32–17, focusing on David’s flight from Jerusalem during Absalom’s rebellion and God’s providential care in a season of sorrow and uncertainty. The message highlights David’s submitted heart as he weeps, worships, and prays, trusting the Lord even as trusted relationships fracture and opposition increases. Attention is given to God’s answer to David’s prayer through Hushai, whose counsel overturns the plans of Ahithophel and preserves David’s life. Along the way, the passage addresses themes of discernment in the face of deception, restraint under unjust criticism, and the danger of unresolved bitterness. This teaching helps listeners see how God remains faithful to His purposes and promises, even when circumstances appear disordered and painful.
