In yesterday’s reading, we heard how David became complacent, choosing to stay home rather than fight the battles the Lord had given him to fight. As a result, he faced the temptation of a beautiful woman, Bathsheba. He gave in to the temptation and when his lover became pregnant he tried to deceive her husband to cover it up. Ultimately, David, had Uriah killed to keep his sins in the dark. But God sees all, and he was grieved by the king’s sin. Today we’ll hear what God says to David through the prophet Nathan to open the king’s eyes to his sin. When David realizes the evil he’s done, it will break him, and he’ll discover that God will exact a high price for David’s unfaithfulness. But we’ll also see what a heart of true repentance looks like as David turns back to God.
