Scripture 2 Sam 11:27 And when her mourning was over, David sent and brought her to his house, and she became his wife and bore him a son. But the thing that David had done displeased the LORD. <\/p>\n
Observation: David had an adulterous affair with Bathsheba and then had her husband killed to cover it up. Saying the Lord was displeased would be an understatement. I can\u2019t imagine doing something so terrible, but with God a sin is a sin and they are all terrible in his sight. Taking that to mind I\u2019ve displeased God plenty over my life. I might not have an affair or had anyone killed, but the sins I\u2019ve committed are just as terrible in God\u2019s eyes. To displease God is to sin, He loves me and even through this sinner\u2019s life. I\u2019ve displeased my heavenly Father so much, he has every right not to love me, but he chooses to. <\/p>\n
Application: Realize my disobedience and not doing my Lord\u2019s will is displeasing to my God and that can\u2019t be taken lightly. My Lord has given me everything and the most important thing being His love for me. It\u2019s got to be hard enough to love me without sin in my life and I need to stop making it more difficult by living a sinful life. I know what pleases God and that needs to be my goal each day, doing the things that honor Him. All I need is to get myself out of my way and put God first in my thoughts and all that I do.<\/p>\n
Prayer: My Lord I know I must displease you so much of the time and I\u2019m sorry. I know I put my needs and what I want before pleasing you and I want to change. You need to be my top priority no matter what and I will do my best, but I need help Lord to do it right. You are worthy of all that I am, please help me lead the life that will show you and please you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
