2 Samuel 7:17-29 - Praying God's Promises

April 30, 2023 Speaker: Kurt Trucksess Series: 2 Samuel - A Better King

Topic: Sunday Morning Teaching Passage: 2 Samuel 7:17–29

The story is told of how Louis XIV requested that at his funeral in the cathedral of Notre Dame, all be darkened — except for one candle burning on his casket at the front. When Massillon, the court preacher, rose to give the funeral sermon, he walked over to the casket and blew out the candle. He began his funeral message with the words, “Only God is great! Only God is Great!” In 2 Samuel 7, David was overwhelmed by God’s goodness to him. We learned that because God is so good, the best thing we can pray for is the fulfillment of God’s promises.
