The Quest For Significance - 1 Sam 18:6-9

11:32 PM | Posted by Fidel V | Edit Post

Pastor Matt Swigart, has served for 8 years as the youth Pastor of in New Life Church of Woodbury in Woodbury, MN. He is a loving father of two with his wife Christina. Both are a great example of a Godly marriage involved in ministry.

Not only do I consider him a geniune "Warrior for Christ" but also have the blessing of calling him a friend. This sermon is taken off the New Life Church of Woodbury website, and I pray that the Spirit uses this to open our spiritual eyes and see what exactly God values as a life of significance.

"When the men were returning home after David had killed the Philistine, the women came out from all the towns of Israel to meet King Saul with singing and dancing, with joyful songs and with tambourines and lutes. As they danced, they sang: "Saul has slain his thousands, and David his tens of thousands."

Saul was very angry; this refrain galled him. "They have credited David with tens of thousands," he thought, "but me with only thousands. What more can he get but the kingdom?" And from that time on Saul kept a jealous eye on David. " -1 Sam 18:6-9

My hope and prayer!

It is my prayer that I may serve both believers and seekers, through the discussion and analysis of biblical passages in light of their historical context, and that this inspires at the very least an intellectual and/or spiritual journey to the heart of scripture and God's true message.

As an unabashed follower of Jesus, I hold true to the belief that almost 2000 years ago, He died on a cross and was risen from the dead, assuring the eternal salvation and future bodily resurrection to the one who decides to place his faith in this event.

Genuine belief, must compel us, to urgently partake in God's rescue Kingdom Project, announcing his resurrection to the world, and together as believers, serving one another and the world around us, awaiting the Lord's return.

Disclaimer :-)

It is imperative that I start this little venture with a fair reminder to all readers, that I assume all of you will have a noble "Berean" spirit when approaching these articles and I humbly state that I have done a strict research of all that is posted here, but remain open to any corrections and/or comments, and will acknowledge and correct when necessary, but never at the expense of the integrity of Scripture.

I assume and expect Scripture will remain at the forefront of study, and that these articles might simply bring color, and allow the full overtones of the narrative in biblical passages to be heard, and do not intend to distract from it, so pray, read and let God speak to you and through his Spirit, that his word might come alive in your hearts and shape your character.
