God's Promises: King David and Overcoming Adversity (Chris)

The reign of King David ended in success for Israel.  Yet David and the nation endured many challenges and difficulties.  David himself was beset by serious adversity over and over.  Some of the difficulties were caused by others and some by David.  Some of the challenges he handled with faith and honor and some he did not.  Exploring David's life and comparing it to Jesus helps us to find ways in which we can manage hardships ourselves.  In the end, David was anointed by God and given blessings, honor, and glory in spite of himself.  In the same way, we are anointed by association with our Savior Jesus Christ and given blessings, honor, and glory in spite of ourselves and our circumstances.  We can face adversity in this life because Christ conquered the world on our behalf!
