Success in life does not come from earthly accomplishments. #daybydaylw Interested in learning more about becoming a devoted follower of Christ? Go to follow.lifeword.org! ~~~ When I was but a wee lad, attending Mabelvale Elementary School, home of the Mustangs, I loved spending time in the library. I can still remember the old card catalogue. I remember exactly where all the Encyclopedia Brown books were located. I read through every one of them by the time I was in third grade. After reading all of those, I had to find something else to read, and I came across a book entitled, The Kid Who Only Hit Homers. How would you like that on the back of your baseball card? Today we have a very similar statement in our text. The author ends two different descriptions of warfare in 2 Samuel 8 with these words, “The LORD gave victory to David wherever he went.” How would like that as a description for you job performance? The businessmen who had success wherever he went! The business owner who only made profits! The teacher who produced only A students. The doctor who saved every life! That would be a pretty successful life, and I think that is a goal that everyone has—to live a successful life. But we all know that success in life doesn’t necessarily come in the earthly accomplishments. So what does it come in? We have a blue print of sorts given before us in chapter 8. This week we will walk through this text to see what was going on with David so that he had victory wherever he went. And maybe, just maybe, we can find some keys for living Day by Day with the Lord.
