What an interesting servant of God.
Here he is with strengths and his follies.
The Bible pictures us just as we are.
It does not gloss over the truth.
David is now up in years.
He is nearing the last acts he will perform.
When we are tempted to sin and do, do we think it is a little tiny thing or do we understand it as it is, an abomination to the Lord?
I.
Concession to Sin [sin is insidious.
It creeps in unawares.
It burrows its way into places we allow without really thinking it is wrong.
It even seems OK on the surface, but the results are damning!]
a. God allows Satan to deal with David.
[temptation is allowed of God.
Jas 1:2 ¶ My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; [How we react is the issue]
i.
He did this with Job
Job 1:6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satanc came also among them.
7 And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou?
Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
8 And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou consideredd my servant Job, that /there is/ none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?
9 Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought? 10 Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side?
thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substancee is increased in the land.
11 But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face.
12 And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath /is/ in thy powerf; only upon himself put not forth thine hand.
So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.
ii.
God is sovereign and can do what He wills.
b. Satan tempts David to count people and not trust God.
