Podcast: Play in new window | Download Subscribe: RSS The Framily Plan is a new series at Society Church all about learning to lead and leave behind a legacy of faith in our families and friendships. This legacy of love I believe holds the greatest virtue and the highest value of life. The scriptures define this virtue and value as the one thing that makes our lives of great worth to God and others. 1 Corinthians 13:1-3- 1If I speak in the tonguesa of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast,b but do not have love, I gain nothing. To frame this conversation we will be going through the book of 1&2 Samuel and looking at the life of David and the legacy he left in his relationships with his family, his friends, and his community and what his legacy can teach us about ours. Today the main point is this: Living our life in love with God brings about the greatest legacy we can lead and leave for our friends and family. 1 Samuel 16:1-7 NLT- “Now the Lord said to Samuel, “You have mourned long enough for Saul. I have rejected him as king of Israel, so fill your flask with olive oil and go to Bethlehem. Find a man named Jesse who lives there, for I have selected one of his sons to be my king.” 2 But Samuel asked, “How can I do that? If Saul hears about it, he will kill me.” “Take a heifer with you,” the Lord replied, “and say that you have come to make a sacrifice to the Lord. 3 Invite Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show you which of his sons to anoint for me.” 4 So Samuel did as the Lord instructed. When he arrived at Bethlehem, the elders of the town came trembling to meet him. “What’s wrong?” they asked. “Do you come in peace?” 5 “Yes,” Samuel replied. “I have come to sacrifice to the Lord. Purify yourselves and come with me to the sacrifice.” Then Samuel performed the purification rite for Jesse and his sons and invited them to the sacrifice, too. 6 When they arrived, Samuel took one look at Eliab and thought, “Surely this is the Lord’s anointed!” 7 But the Lord said to Samuel, “Don’t judge by his appearance or height, for I have rejected him. The Lord doesn’t see things the way you see them. People judge by outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” In Leading and Leaving a legacy of love for God We must: Embrace Life as a Journey - Embracing the Journey Through: Journeying through Disappointment Discouragement and Frustration - Embracing the Journey Through: Journeying through doubt and questions - Embracing the Journey Through: Journeying through Fear & Risk - Embracing the Journey Through: Journeying through options & decisions In Leading and Leaving a Legacy of love for God we must: Understand that God makes Underdogs into his Overachievers. 1 Samuel 16:7-13- 7 But the Lord said to Samuel, “Don’t judge by his appearance or height, for I have rejected him. The Lord doesn’t see things the way you see them. People judge by outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” 8 Then Jesse told his son Abinadab to step forward and walk in front of Samuel. But Samuel said, “This is not the one the Lord has chosen.” 9 Next Jesse summoned Shimea,[a] but Samuel said, “Neither is this the one the Lord has chosen.” 10 In the same way all seven of Jesse’s sons were presented to Samuel. But Samuel said to Jesse, “The Lord has not chosen any of these.” 11 Then Samuel asked, “Are these all the sons you have?” “There is still the youngest,” Jesse replied. “But he’s out in the fields watching the sheep and goats.” “Send for him at once,” Samuel said. “We will not sit down to eat until he arrives.” 12 So Jesse sent for him. He was dark and handsome, with beautiful eyes. And the Lord said, “This is the one; anoint him.” 13 So as David stood there among his brothers, Samuel took the flask of olive oil he had brought and anointed David with the oil. And the Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon David from that day on. Then Samuel returned to Ramah.” Application Points: - Beware of the Deception of False Advertising - Be a person after God’s Heart- How do we get God’s heart? - Stop trying to be like God and start trying to be with God - Become captivated by a greater affection Conclusion: Isaiah 53: My servant grew up in the LORD’s presence like a tender green shoot, like a root in dry ground. There was nothing beautiful or majestic about his appearance, nothing to attract us to him. 3He was despised and rejected— a man of sorrows, acquainted with deepest grief. We turned our backs on him and looked the other way. He was despised, and we did not care. 4Yet it was our weaknesses he carried; it was our sorrowsa that weighed him down. And we thought his troubles were a punishment from God, a punishment for his own sins! 5But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed. 6All of us, like sheep, have strayed away. We have left God’s paths to follow our own. Yet the LORD laid on him the sins of us all.

1 शमूएल अध्याय 16 परमप्रभुले शमूएललाई भन्नुहुन्छ, “कति दिन शाऊलको निम्ति दुःखीत भइरहन्छसू? शाऊललाई मैले इस्राएलको राजापदबाट हटाइसके तरै पनि त्यसको दुःख मानिरहन्छस्। तँसित भएको सींङ तेलले भर र बेतलेहेम जा। म तँलाई बेतलेहेमको यिशै नाउँको मानिसकहाँ पठाउँदैछु। यिशै बेतलेहेममा बस्छ। मैले त्यसकै एकजना छोरालाई नयाँ राजाको रूपमा चुनें।” 2 शमूएलले भने, “यदि म गएँ भने यो समाचार शाऊलले सुन्ने छ र मलाई मार्ने छ।”परमप्रभुले भन्नुभयो, “बेतलेहेममा जा साथमा एउटा बाछा पनि लानु र भन्नु, ‘परमप्रभुलाई बलि चढाउन आएको।’ 3 यिशैलाई बलि चढाउन बोलाउनु। त्यसपछि म तँलाई के गर्नु पर्छ भन्ने छु। तैंले त्यस मानिसलाई अभिषेक गर्नु जुन म तँलाई देखाउँनेछु।” 4 शमूएलले त्यसै गरे जो परमप्रभुले तिनलाई गर्नु भन्नु भएको थियो। शमूएल बेतलेहेम गए। बेतलेहेमका बूढा-प्रधानहरू डरले कामे। तिनीहरूले शमूएललाई भेटे र सोधे, “के तपाईं शान्ति पूर्वक आउँनु भयो?” 5 शमूएलले भने, “ज्यू, म शान्ति पूर्वक आएँ। म परमप्रभुलाई बलिदान चढाउन आएको हुँ। तपाईंहरू पनि पूजाका निम्ति तयार भएर बलिदान चढाउन मसित आउनु होस्।” शमूएलले यिशै र तिनका छोराहरूलाई तयार पारे। त्यस पछि शमूएलले तिनीहरूलाई बलिदान चढाउन बोलाए। 6 जब यिशै र तिनका छोराहरू आइ पुगे, शमूएलले एलीआबलाई देखे। शमूएलले सोचे, “निश्चय पनि परमप्रभुले छान्नु भएको मानिस यिनै हुनु पर्छ।” 7 तर परमप्रभुले शमूएललाई भन्नु भयो, “एलीआब अग्लो र सुन्दर छ। तर यस्तो विचार गर्नु हुदैन। परमेश्वरले ती चीजहरू हेर्नु हुन्न हो मानिसहरूले हेर्छन्। मानिसले बाहिरी रूप मात्र हेर्छ, तर परमप्रभुले उसको हृदय हेर्नुहुन्छ। एलीआब त्यो ठीक मानिस होइन।” 8 त्यसपछि यिशैले तिनका दोस्रो छोरा अबीनादाबलाई बोलाए। अबीनादाब शमूएलकै छेउ भएर हिंडे। तर शमूएलले भने, “होइन, यसलाई पनि परमप्रभुले चुन्नु भएको छैन।” 9 त्यसपछि यिशैले शम्मालाई शमूएलको छेउमा बोलाए। तर शमूएलले भने, “होइन, यसलाई पनि परमप्रभुले चुन्नु भएको होइन।” 10 यिशैले सातौ छोरा देखाए। तर शमूएलले यिशैलाई भने, “परमप्रभुले यिनीहरू मध्ये कसैलाई पनि चुन्नु भएको छैन।” 11 शमूएले यिशैलाई सोधे, “के तपाईंका छोराहरू यति नै हुन्?”यिशैले भने, “होइन अर्को छोरा छ सब भन्दा कान्छो, तर अहिले भेडा चराउँदैछ।”शमूएलले भने, “उसलाई यहाँ तुरून्तै लिन पठाऊ। उ नआइञ्जेल सम्म हामी खान बस्ने छैनौं।” 12 यिशैले कान्छो छोरा लिन तुरून्तै कसैलाई पठाए। त्यो छोरा हेर्दै राम्रो थियो, रातो वर्णको युवक। उ साँच्चै सुन्दर थियो।परमप्रभुले शमूएललाई भन्नु भयो, “उठेर उसलाई अभिषेक गर। त्यहि एउटा हो।” 13 शमूएलले सीङबाट तेल निकालेर यिशैको कान्छा छोराको शिरमा दाजूहरूका अगाडी खन्याई दिए। परमप्रभुको आत्मा एकदमै शक्तिको साथ दाऊदमाथि त्यस दिन देखि उत्रियो। त्यस पछि शमूएल रामा घरतिर फर्के। 14 परमप्रभुको आत्माले शाऊललाई त्यागि दियो। परमप्रभुले दुष्ट आत्मा शाऊल कहाँ पठाउँनु भयो। त्यसले शाऊललाई साह्रै सतायो। 15 शाऊलको नोकरले भन्यो, “परमेश्वरद्वारा पठाउँनु भएको दुष्ट आत्माले तपाईंलाई साह्रै दुःख दियो। 16 हामीलाई आदेश दिनुहोस हामीले कुनै त्यस्तो व्यक्ति खोज्न सकौं जसले वीणा बजाउन सक्छ। यदि परमप्रभुबाट आएको त्यस दुष्ट आत्माले तपाईंलाई सताउन थालेछ भने त्यस मानिसले वीणा बजाउन थाल्नेछ र तपाईंलाई आराम अनुभव हुनेछ।” 17 शाऊलले नोकर-चाकरहरूलाई भने, “एउटा मानिसलाई मेरो निम्ति खोज जसले असल तरिकाले संगीत बजाउँछ। त्यसलाई म कहाँ ल्याऊ।” 18 एउटा नोकरले भन्यो, “एउटा यिशै नाउँका मानिस छन्। बेतलेहेममा बस्छन्। मैले देखेको छु यिशैको छोरा। उसले कसरी वीणा बजाउनु पर्छ जान्दछ। उ साह्रै वीर र युद्ध गर्न जान्दछ। उ साह्रै फुर्तिलो र सुन्दर छ। परमप्रभु पनि उसैको साथ हुनुहुन्छ।” 19 यसकारण शाऊलले समाचार दिने मानिसलाई यिशैकहाँ पठाए। तिनीहरूले यिशैलाई भने, “तिम्रो दाऊद नाउँको छोरा छ। जसले तिम्रा भेडाहरू चराउँछ। उसलाई मकहाँ पठाऊ।” 20 यिशैले शाऊलका निम्ति उपहारको बन्दोबस्त गर्यो। यिशैले उपहारको रूपमा एउटा गधा, केही रोटी, एक मशक दाखरस र एउटा बाख्राको पाठो तयार पार्यो। यिशैले ती चीजहरू दाऊदका साथ लगाएर शाऊल कहाँ पठायो। 21 यसरी दाऊद शाऊल कहाँ गयो र तिनका अगाडि हाजिर भयो। शाऊलले दाऊदलाई धेरै प्रेम गरे। दाऊद शाऊलको अस्त्र बोक्ने सहयोगी भए। 22 शाऊलले यिशैलाई खबर पठाए, “दाऊद बसेर मेरो सेवा गरोस्। ऊ मलाई असाध्यै मन पर्यो।” 23 जब परमेश्वरले पठाएको दुष्ट आत्माले शाऊललाई दुःख दिन थाल्थ्यो, दाऊदले हातमा वीणा लिएर बजाउँन थाल्दथे र दुष्ट आत्माले शाऊललाई छोडि हाल्थ्यो र शाऊल असल हुन्थे।
