Please read 2 Samuel 15.

Meditate on verses 25b and 26.
If I find favor in the sight of the LORD, then He will bring me back
again…
But if He should say thus, “I have no delight in you,”
behold, here I am, let Him do to me as seems good to Him.
The situation with Absalom grew worse. Plotting to take the throne from his father,
he put doubt in the people’s minds about David, claiming he would do a better
job for them. Absalom stole their hearts. Panicking, David ran toward the wilderness,
and as he ran, he came to the end of himself.
He turned around and climbed up the Mount of Olives where he wept a
prayer that would be echoed on that mountain 1,000 years later (vs. 25-30; Luke
22:39-42).
“LORD, do to me as seems good to You.
My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me;
yet not as I will, but as You
will.”
—2 Samuel 15:26;
Matthew 26:39
Are you at the end of your rope? Are people lying about you? Turn to your Savior who knows and
understands. In brokenness and humility,
pray 2 Samuel 15:25-26 and 31 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard
as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).
“LORD, let _________ and me find favor in Your sight.
Bring us back to You. Please
delight in us, and do to us as seems good to You.
O LORD, I pray, make the counsel of __________ foolishness.”
In Your name, Jesus~”
