You Could Have Had Much More!

Nathan explained to David, God gave him position, protection, possessions, pleasures, and power; but, he would have had even more!

“Thus says the Lord God of Israel: ‘I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you from the hand of Saul.  I gave you your master’s house and your master’s wives into your keeping, and gave you the house of Israel and Judah. And if that had been too little, I also would have given you much more!” (2 Sa 12:7–8).

What blessings am I forfeiting? What riches am I not requesting? How much is my sin diminishing my life? How profound would my remorse be if I fully understood my unreached potential?
