A man after Gods own heart

Acts 13:22And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will.

o   How was Davids heart?
§  He Sang worship unto God in the wilderness, being an outcast from the family. Not invited to dinners or fellowship. His closest family didnt want to have anything to do with him. Still he worshipped.
§  He sang for King Saul, even knowing God had rejected him, taken his Kingdom, and given it to David himself. He tried to throw a spear at him. Still he Sang
§  He served and submitted himself, even though the King persecuted him, and came after him with an army. He tried to kill him. Still David submitted himself and served him.
§  His Son raped his halfsister, and Davids daughter. Still David forgave.
§  His own son killed his brother, and Davids son. He stole his Kingdom, and went to War against him. Still david Loved him, and said when he was killed: Oh, If I could have died instead of you!

o   Thats a reflection of Gods heart. He died for us when we didnt deserve it. He loved us when we were unloveable. He save dus when we rebelled against him.


o   We are obligated to love. We are obligated to forgive. We must always submit and protect the song and worship he has given us
