His Mercy Is Great
ABOUT THIS MESSAGe
Endings say a lot about a person’s story. And when we reach one of the final moments in David’s life, God doesn’t highlight his victories, accomplishments, or reputation—He highlights David’s failure, repentance, and God’s mercy.
In 2 Samuel 24, David makes a prideful decision: he orders a census, not to steward the nation wisely, but to measure his own strength. David wanted numbers he could trust, a sense of security he could control. But what we count often reveals what we trust.
