Good Counsel Divinely Opposed

David is driven into the wilderness, betrayed by trusted counsel, surrounded by deception, and pursued by his own son. In the courts of Absalom, the wisest counsel in Israel is given, yet it is rejected. Not because it lacked wisdom, but because God Himself opposed it. This sermon walks through the tension of human strategy versus divine sovereignty, showing how the Lord defeats good counsel to accomplish judgment and preserve His chosen king. From cursing and deception to confusion and ultimate deliverance, the hand of God is seen ruling over every moment. Even in exile, David is sustained. Even in danger, God provides. Even when the wicked seem to prosper, their end is already determined. Worship with us at Reformation OPC Gastonia!
