Here, we are given a summary of how God gives His anointed King dominion in the world. What we see with David being brought to full measure and fulfillment in Christ as He takes dominion of the whole world. In Him, all nations are blessed. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/426261513325035 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 26 Apr 2026 12:00:00 +0000 Rev. John Shearouse 0:47:34 no Rev. John Shearouse - 2 Samuel https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/31526158476979 God gave David a covenant promise David that He would make David's house a forever dynasty with a forever thrown over a forever kingdom that would be forever be for God. Today we are going to look at David's response to this in 2 Sam 7:18-29. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/31526158476979 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 15 Mar 2026 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

John Shearouse - 2 Samuel https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/215261617435184 This week in the rest of the chapter, 2 Samuel 5:17-25, we will see how, though our enemies attack us, God enables His anointed King to lead us to victory. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/215261617435184 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 15 Feb 2026 12:00:00 +0000 Rev. John Shearouse 0:49:32 no Rev. John Shearouse - 2 Samuel https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/28261613102847 Today in 2 Samuel 5:6-16, we see how God establishes David's throne in Jerusalem which is also called Mount Zion. Now, Jesus is said to be on His throne in Mt. Zion above. Today in David we will see shadows that teach us about the reign of King Jesus, and not only teach us, but that unite our hearts to Him as our King! https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/28261613102847 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 08 Feb 2026 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

John Shearouse - 2 Samuel https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/2126167146380 Today, we will see how the tribes of Israel besides Judah, finally received David, God's anointed king, as their king. It was a glorious day for them—and also delightful to David. All of this is given to encourage us to see how good and how important it is for us to receive King Jesus as our King. He is the one that God provided for us to save us. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/2126167146380 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 01 Feb 2026 12:00:00 +0000 Rev. John Shearouse 0:36:18 no Rev. John Shearouse - 2 Samuel https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/1252616862089 Our gracious God is doing a great work to save the world. He has the plan. In the grand scheme, He is always forming a people for Himself out of the ruins of the fall. In Samuel, we see how He gathers the people He redeems into a kingdom of righteousness. Presently, we are seeing particular things that God's anointed King will not tolerate. With Abner, we saw that clever policy and military muscle do not bring the kingdom. Last week, we saw with Joab how bitterness that cannot forgive has no place. Today, with the sons of Rimmon, we see that selfish ambition has no place. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/1252616862089 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 25 Jan 2026 12:00:00 +0000 Rev. John Shearouse 0:49:59 no Rev. John Shearouse - 2 Samuel https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/11826168581229 David, who was very glad to see Israel finally coming to him, as God had promised, set the terms in a way that forced Abner to acknowledge that David, not Abner, was in charge. Almost everyone was glad to see this union under David, but David's nephew Joab, who was the commander of David's armies, although he certainly wanted to see David as king of all Israel, had a bitter grudge against Abner that took first place in his response. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/11826168581229 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 18 Jan 2026 12:00:00 +0000 Rev. John Shearouse 0:49:40 no Rev. John Shearouse - 2 Samuel https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/111261616153654 Today in 2 Samuel 3, we are going to look at the surprising ways that God used to advanced His kingdom when He brought David from being King over Judah to being King over all twelve tribes of Israel. God had purposed to do it, so why didn't He just have all twelve tribes come over after Saul died? It would have been much tidier than having Abner lead them all in rebellion. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/111261616153654 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 11 Jan 2026 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

We stopped in the middle of a 2 Sam 2. Today we will look at the rest of chapter 2. Here we see a contrast between David, who is a prince of peace, and Abner, who is a warmonger. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/14261612316514 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 04 Jan 2026 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.

He truly grieved. He brought justice to the Amalekite for killing the Lord's Anointed. Today, we are moving on in 2 Samuel chapter 1, picking up with verse 17. Here we are shown a wonderful example of godly lamentation. https://sermons.crpchalifax.ca/sermons/11302516544443 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 30 Nov 2025 12:00:00 +0000 Rev.
