The Accomplishments of David's Past : Part One by Dr. Rod Mattoon

About this sermon

* 1 Samuel 17:34-36 ...And David said unto Saul, Thy servant kept his father's sheep, and there came a lion, and a bear, and took a lamb out of the flock: 35 And I went out after him, and smote him, and delivered it out of his mouth: and when he arose against me, I caught him by his beard, and smote him, and slew him. 36 Thy servant slew both the lion and the bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he hath defied the armies of the living God. In PART ONE of the Accomplishments of David’s Past, we begin the message about the importance of your “alone time” with God. Alone time tends to be a time of training. The trials we face are used by God to train us for future service and responsibility. For those who feel it is not necessary or important to spend time with the Lord, we offer nine probing questions to you. We take time to note the past battles David had with predators and the lessons he learned from them. We then direct our attention of the importance of obeying and honoring your parents, whether you are young or old, and whether they are alive or dead. This message was preached on Sunday morning, April 12, 2026, at Lincoln Land Baptist Church.
