In 1945, at the end of World War 2, Helmut Thielicke, a brilliant theologian, preaching through the Lords Prayer to what was left of his congregation in the ruins of his church in Stuttgart said, Everything will be all right so long as we hear His good voice calling to us above the howling of the wolves, above the sound of branches snapping, above the ominous noises around us. God is always there. A Christian worldview believes in the Fatherhood of God.

He is leading us, protecting and correcting us. This is how we know God's love for us, through his action in our lives. In this message, we learn that God's rod corrects us, like He corrected David after his sin with Bathsheba, but His staff comforts us through these corrections. Loving discipline shows God's love for us.

But simply by the fact that God has brought us into a redemptive relationship with Him, we can be encouraged that He has gifted us! The Holy Spirit is our gift; He is our anointing to do the good works that God has prepared in advance for us to do. This message assures us that God has gifted us and God will see us through the tasks He set before us. We can say, as David says, "He has exalted me by helping me to know Him."

There will be consequences for sin, but the love of God is the kind of unconditional love that shows mercy when the object of its love lies prostrate and repentant. David learned this when he sinned against God with Bathsheba, he learned the weight of guilt. He also learned that God's mercy is an attribute of His unfailing love. In this message, Jill Briscoe teaches us the importance of letting God love us by letting Him forgive us.

Suffering in this life is inevitable. David knew that. He wrote his psalms about that. But he wrote with the knowledge that Gods love brings comfort, encouragement, freshness, and life to those who pant after Him. In this message, Jill points us to the many resources for encouragement that God has already given us: His Holy Spirit, His word, and His people. God beckons us to bring encouragement to those around us.

God promised to bring a new covenant to His people through Davids line, a covenant that would bring an eternity where there are no broken promises. In this message, we learn of Gods faithfulness in His grand promises. We can trust His promises because they are based on His unfailing love!

But when David faced Goliath, God was the champion. God fought for the one He loved, just as He will fight for us when we're overwhelmed, because He loves us. In this message, Jill teaches us that God is our rescuer. That doesn't mean He will always rescue us from physical hardships or discomfort, but He will rescue us from sin, and its consequences. He will rescue us from Satan's schemes, from fear, and from ourselves.
