1 Chronicles 11<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> (<\/span>2 Samuel 5.1-10<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> and <\/span>2 Samuel 23.8-29<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n

Three verses (70-72) from Psalm 78<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> present this event (<\/span>see study<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>). Our 2 Samuel 5.1-10 study presents the activity of verses 1-9 (<\/span>see study<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>). There is one point added here and that is how Joab becomes the commander of David\u2019s army\u2013he leads the capture of Jerusalem (verses 6-7). We, now, shall turn to the remainder of the chapter.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The thirty-two verses that follow recount David\u2019s mighty men and the feats they accomplished. David had three warriors close to him, then he had thirty, then he had his armies. This list contains the thirty, which would include the three.<\/p>\n

I will add thoughts on one of them, Benaiah, later today.<\/p>\n

In this list we find those God purposed for greatness through a direct call. Others were purposed\u00a0for greatness through an indirect call from God through David. Others were purposed for greatness through by being faithful in the small things. We are all purposed for greatness if we choose to follow the small things of God (Mark 10.42-45<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>). <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A song from a bygone era states this as-well:\u00a0 Servant of All (If you want to be great in God\u2019s kingdom<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>\u00a0(Maranatha Music). Take three-minutes for to listen to this song.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

How faithful have you been to the small things that God has called you to do? Homework? Honoring parents? Truth-telling? Kindness? Etcetera?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
