Then David comforted Bathsheba, his wife. He went to her and lay with her, so that she conceived a son. They named him Solomon, and the LORD loved him. So He sent a word by way of the prophet Nathan that he should be named Jedidiah for the sake of the LORD.

King David is described in the New Testament as a man after God’s own heart, meaning that he aligned his own heart with that of God’s. As we study David’s life, our goal for this series is to analyze the things David did in 1 & 2 Samuel in order to mold our hearts after God’s and resemble the same intensity of focus and spirit that David showcased throughout his life.
We sometimes feel that our past holds us back so badly that we have no future. We think we’ve done something God cannot get past. If you’ve been there, this plan is for you. The Bible is filled with comeback stories from people like Joseph, David, and more. Read this plan to be encouraged by God’s faithfulness in their stories—and learn how he can redeem your story too.

Their way of living their faith will lead them to opposite destinies: Michal disappears into oblivion, without a trace, while Bathsheba enters into the glory of the divine plan, becoming part of the Messiah's lineage.
