Brought From Nowhere To Somewhere 2 Samuel 9:1-13 God wants your Life to be at a Different Place!The story is about David’s love and care for Jonathan’s crippled son Mephibosheth. In David’s care for Mephibosheth, we find God’s care and concern for lost sinners and the steps the Lord takes to save the sinner and bring him to Himself. It is a story of God’s grace in a barren place.Typically, new kings wanted to find and kill anybody who was left of the former king’s house. But this was not the case at all.David wanted to find them so that he could show them kindness. Why? For Jonathan’s sake (vs. 1). Jonathan was King Saul’s son, and David’s best friend. Jonathan was dead, but David wanted to do something nice in his memory.It ends up that they can only find one person – it was one of Jonathan’s sons. His name was Mephibosheth, and he was lame on both feet. He was crippled. vs. 3In David’s care of Mephibosheth, we begin to see God’s care for us. We are in the same place as Mephibosheth.Mephibosheth was crippled by a fall. Men and women without Christ are crippled by sin. As Mephibosheth’s land and inheritance was restored, the saved sinner is given an inheritance. Mephibosheth was given servants to help him, the saved sinner is given the Holy Spirit as a helper.As Mephibosheth became as one of the king’s sons, the believer becomes a son of God.
