FAITH CAPSULE:<\/strong> In the place to do right do not engage a wrong doing.<\/p>\n

2 Samuel 11<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Engaging a right assignment in a wrong manner will deliver a wrong result. King David engaged right assignment when he sent Joab and his servants with him, and all Israel to battle but he got a wrong result for himself as he stayed back by not leading to the war. The Bible recorded in 2 Samuel 11:1, \u201cIt happened in the spring of the year, at the time when kings go out to battle, that David sent Joab and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the people of Ammon and besieged Rabbah. But David remained at Jerusalem.\u201d(2 Samuel 11:1)<\/em><\/strong> At the time David was to be at the battlefront instead of being at home he invited the battle home for himself. King David used his rightful power to unrightfully take possession of Uriah\u2019s wife. Uriah the Hittite was at the battle ground when David made his move. It is written, \u201c<\/em><\/strong>Then David sent messengers, and took her; and she came to him, and he lay with her, for she was cleansed from her impurity; and she returned to her house.\u00a0 And the woman conceived; so she sent and told David, and said, \u201cI am with child.\u201d (2 Samuel 11:4-5)
\n<\/em><\/strong>David made the choice to be at the right place at the wrong time. David was supposed to be at the battlefront, but made the choice to be at home at the wrong time. David\u2019s absence from the battlefront generated devises that are outside of God. He committed adultery and also extended it to murder. Sin is like a disease that does not stop itself when there is a choice in place to engage sin. Wickedness was the sin of David. In the place to do right, are you about to engage a sin wrongly? It is always good to go back to God before the enemies use you as a ground to expand your sin. David could not put away his choice of sin but took his sin to another level. Bible recorded, 2 Samuel 11:14-15, \u201c<\/em><\/strong>In the morning it happened that David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it by the hand of Uriah.\u00a0 And he wrote in the letter, saying, \u201cSet Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retreat from him, that he may be struck down and die.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> On that morning hour David could have been in the presence of God seeking for forgiveness but turned out to be time for him to orchestrate Uriah\u2019s death in the battle.
\nGod rightfully positioned David as a king but he took his rightful position to commit rightful act. Regardless of your God given position, inside or outside of church, always remember, \u201cThe eyes of the Lord are in every place, keeping watch on the evil and the good.\u201d (Proverbs 15:3)<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
