In 2 Samuel 9 we read about Mephibosheth being called to eat at the table of King David. In this story we not only see an unworthy man called up to sit and reside alongside the king from long ago, but an invitation to ourselves from God himself today. Listen in as this story drops us in the very same seat of Mephiboseth and we wrestle with the question of “How do I know that I have a relationship with Jesus?”
David is old and his days on earth are numbered. A shadow of the man he used to be, he remains firmly dedicated to Yahweh. But there will be one last test for David to face before he leaves this life behind.
This is a tough lesson because it starts well but ends poorly. David is nearing the end of his illustrious life, and while he has learned many lessons along the way, he seems to take his eye off the objective as he nears the finish line.
