Sunday Morning Series - A Heart Condition - Being Right in the Eyes of the Lord
What we think God will or will not do in any given situation doesn't matter. His Word gives the definitive answer to what actions He will take.
In II Samuel 6, David decides to bring the ark to Jerusalem.
1) A new cart is used. It's obvious David didn't consult the High Priest or the Word of God before selecting this method of transportation.
2) Music is played. While this was nice, it wasn't part of the instructions God gave for moving the ark.
3) There was probably worship and dancing as well.
4) The ark almost falls off the cart.
5) Uzzah steadies it with his hand.
6) The anger of God was aroused, and Uzzah dies.
7) David becomes angry and parks the ark. 2 Samuel 6:9 tells us that David was afraid of the Lord that day, and he said, "How can the ark of the Lord come to me?"
The unknown with the things of God can bring fear, anger, inaction and/or defective belief. David does his homework and finds out that the ark is supposed to be carried on poles by the priests. He follows God's way of doing things and brings the ark to Jerusalem.

Sunday Morning Series - A Heart Condition - The Appeal of Captivity
James 1:25 - You not only have to look in the perfect law of liberty, you have to continue in it. Don't be a forgetful hearer but a doer of the Word.
One who is NOT a forgetful hearer is one who continues.
It isn't knowledge that sets us free. It's truth. How do you know if you're a believer? You believe. It's not only that you go to church, pray, or read the Bible. You abide in the Word, and it affects every area of your life.
If we receive knowledge that isn't true, it won't set us free. I grew up in a denomination that tacked on, "if it be thy will," to every prayer for healing. Jesus and the disciples never did that. When we receive teachings that are counter to Biblical truth, it will hinder us.
In 2 Chronicles 24, we read about King Joash. Jehoiada, the priest, saved his life as a baby, and he lived for God all the days of Jehoiada. Does this mean what he did was not genuine or sincere? He actually exceeded Jehoiada in his zeal to restore the house of the Lord. Scripture tells us he "set in his heart" on repairing the temple.
Once Jehoiada died, certain leaders came to him and turned him away from God. The temple that he spent so much time building and caring for no longer was a priority. Idol worship came back into Israel. God sent prophets to warn them, but their message went unheeded.
Zechariah, son of Jehoiada, confronted King Joash. They'd probably know each other most of their lives. The King gave the command for Zechariah to be stoned. Following this action, the Syrian army sent a small force to Israel, and they defeated Israel's bigger army.
