00:00:01.120 --> 00:00:07.160
Year, Joe, straight from the broadcast studio, and then the

2
00:00:07.200 --> 00:00:10.240
status This ain't no pret sound story. So as prophetic

3
00:00:10.679 --> 00:00:13.000
encrypt the signals from the saddles of the party, we

4
00:00:13.119 --> 00:00:16.879
did where the trop got secret, snow parted, microphone.

5
00:00:16.280 --> 00:00:19.960
Alchemists, scriptures with a twist, peep the frequency seeds in

6
00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:23.359
the midst We dropped fast like plagues revelations in the catus,

7
00:00:23.359 --> 00:00:27.199
broadcasting truth while they trapped in surveilans wisdom with a

8
00:00:27.280 --> 00:00:31.399
watchman's blade, forth what sound while your whole system faith, blood,

9
00:00:31.480 --> 00:00:34.880
moons that for love, echoes in the pond sasquarsppen through

10
00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:37.840
the fault lines of time. We ain't mainstream, We ain't

11
00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:41.000
just stream safer with the prophets to code the dreams.

12
00:00:41.000 --> 00:00:43.679
So with you trom in better guards to mind. Is

13
00:00:43.759 --> 00:00:46.880
broadcasting seeds and were breaking the design of design.

14
00:00:48.920 --> 00:01:01.200
Yeah, yeh, Joe, ye, straight from the broadcast.

15
00:00:59.359 --> 00:01:03.719
I'm gonna tell and this is broadcasting seeds. Tonight. We

16
00:01:03.759 --> 00:01:07.920
are walking into the heat of to Samuel, where the

17
00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:11.799
knives are out, the states are eternal, and the quiet

18
00:01:11.799 --> 00:01:15.439
parts of history talk back. If you grew up thinking

19
00:01:15.519 --> 00:01:19.640
David was just the harp kid who became king this

20
00:01:19.719 --> 00:01:25.159
episode may feel like finding a locked room in your

21
00:01:25.159 --> 00:01:30.079
own house. Behind palace walls and battlefield dust is a

22
00:01:30.280 --> 00:01:37.280
second front you can't photograph, principalities, curses, a covenant that

23
00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:44.359
refuses to die. David's story reads like a field manual

24
00:01:44.480 --> 00:01:50.680
with blood on the corners. He fights men, yes, but

25
00:01:50.760 --> 00:01:55.840
he also wrestles consequences that move like weather. When he

26
00:01:56.760 --> 00:02:01.959
does right, nations breathe when he's sends, the ripple eats

27
00:02:02.040 --> 00:02:05.560
through his own home. There are angels showing up with

28
00:02:05.719 --> 00:02:10.520
drawn swords, plagues that do not care about rank, prophetic

29
00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:14.879
songs that sound less like lullabies and more like coordinates

30
00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:22.759
called called in for artillery. Why go here now? Because

31
00:02:22.759 --> 00:02:27.439
the pattern did not retire, Power still mixes with worship.

32
00:02:27.960 --> 00:02:33.919
Bloodlines still carry burdens. Leaders still open doors they cannot close.

33
00:02:34.680 --> 00:02:40.759
If you think all of this is distant, check your headlines,

34
00:02:41.240 --> 00:02:44.000
your home, in the places you do not want to

35
00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:48.479
talk about. Spiritual war does not need your permission, It

36
00:02:48.560 --> 00:02:54.599
only needs your attention. Here's a roadmap. First, we will

37
00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:57.520
strip the battlefield to the studs and ask who else

38
00:02:57.759 --> 00:03:02.560
was fighting. Then we will walk through David's house and

39
00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:09.840
catalog to damage his choices. Invited. Finally, we will follow

40
00:03:09.879 --> 00:03:15.919
the covenant that outlived him and trace why something ancient

41
00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:21.280
kept trying to kill the promise. If the show helps

42
00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:24.199
you see the world a little clearer, do me a

43
00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:28.719
favor hit like share and share it with a friend

44
00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:33.240
who can handle the conversation, and drop a review. That

45
00:03:33.520 --> 00:03:36.639
is oxygen for this work, and it keeps us in

46
00:03:36.680 --> 00:03:54.199
the fight. Ready to step behind the curtain. Section one,

47
00:03:54.759 --> 00:03:59.120
The Invisible War, Angels, Giants, and the shadow Realm of

48
00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:04.280
David's Battle. When we talked about David the Warrior, most

49
00:04:04.319 --> 00:04:08.520
people picture a scrappy underdog with a sling taking down

50
00:04:08.520 --> 00:04:12.599
a nine foot philistine with one perfect shot. But that's

51
00:04:12.599 --> 00:04:18.120
the Sunday School version, the sanitized myth. What two Samuel

52
00:04:18.240 --> 00:04:23.560
hints at is what most sermons politely avoid, is that

53
00:04:23.720 --> 00:04:27.879
David wasn't just fighting men. He was waging a spiritual

54
00:04:27.959 --> 00:04:31.959
war that began long before he was born and still

55
00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:37.959
hasn't ended till today. Let's start with Goliath, not just

56
00:04:38.040 --> 00:04:43.360
a giant, but part of a bloodline called the Refaeem

57
00:04:43.399 --> 00:04:48.360
and Anachin. These weren't ordinary people. They were remnants of

58
00:04:48.399 --> 00:04:53.920
something far older, far darker. The Bible calls them the

59
00:04:53.920 --> 00:04:58.360
offspring of the Nephelum being born when the sons of

60
00:04:58.399 --> 00:05:03.000
God mate it with human and women, the forbidden unions

61
00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:08.240
that corrupted creation in Genesis six. David's first great act

62
00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:12.279
wasn't just a military victory. It was a spiritual cleanup,

63
00:05:12.680 --> 00:05:17.680
the continuation of a divine purge that began in Noah's flood.

64
00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:25.000
The Philistine cities David attacked many were ancient Canaanite strongholds

65
00:05:25.120 --> 00:05:32.040
linked to those these hybrid bloodlines. Every conquest, every enemy

66
00:05:32.120 --> 00:05:37.439
king wasn't random. It was strategic. Heaven versus Hell. Written

67
00:05:37.600 --> 00:05:43.279
in geography, the Israelites saw the world as contested ground,

68
00:05:43.920 --> 00:05:49.319
each territory ruled by unseen princes or divine beings. When

69
00:05:49.399 --> 00:05:53.480
David went to war, he wasn't just expanding Israel. He

70
00:05:53.600 --> 00:05:58.920
was reclaiming spiritual real estate. And it's not like the

71
00:05:58.959 --> 00:06:03.759
supernatural state on the sidelines. Angels appear in David's story,

72
00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:10.759
not as comforting visions, but as armed enforcers, and to

73
00:06:11.000 --> 00:06:14.879
Samuel twenty four, when David's pride leads him to take

74
00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:19.160
a census, an angel of the Lord stands between heaven

75
00:06:19.319 --> 00:06:24.240
and Earth with a drawn sword, slaughtering seventy thousand men

76
00:06:25.680 --> 00:06:33.680
seventy thousand because one man crossed a spiritual boundary. Here's

77
00:06:33.720 --> 00:06:38.560
where it gets crazy. David sees the Angel. He literally

78
00:06:38.639 --> 00:06:43.959
looks up and sees this being hovering over Jerusalem, sword raised,

79
00:06:44.680 --> 00:06:48.120
the same ground where he later buys land for the temple.

80
00:06:48.759 --> 00:06:55.040
Mount Mariah becomes a convergence point between realms is. It's

81
00:06:55.199 --> 00:06:58.680
as if God marked the site where divine wrath and

82
00:06:58.839 --> 00:07:04.759
mercy met to face. This is the invisible war woven

83
00:07:04.839 --> 00:07:10.920
through to Samuel, divine beings policing, moral fault lines, fallen

84
00:07:11.079 --> 00:07:15.319
entities fighting more for influence, and the king trying to

85
00:07:15.399 --> 00:07:19.120
navigate both with the weight of a nation on his shoulders.

86
00:07:19.680 --> 00:07:23.199
It makes you wonder how many of our own battles

87
00:07:24.480 --> 00:07:28.720
are just reruns of the same cosmic script, different tools,

88
00:07:29.160 --> 00:07:42.720
same spirits. Section two Bloodlines and Curses, the supernatural consequences

89
00:07:42.720 --> 00:07:47.519
of David's sins. If the first battle in David's life

90
00:07:47.600 --> 00:07:52.079
was physical, the second one was internal, and that's where

91
00:07:52.079 --> 00:07:58.000
the real carnage happened. The story of David and Bathsheba

92
00:07:58.680 --> 00:08:02.720
isn't just a tale of moral failure. It's the ignition

93
00:08:02.839 --> 00:08:06.120
point for a generational curse that tears through his family

94
00:08:06.240 --> 00:08:12.759
Like wildfire. You can almost trace the pattern. David sees

95
00:08:12.800 --> 00:08:16.439
something forbidden, takes it, tries to cover it up, and

96
00:08:16.480 --> 00:08:21.079
then blood begins to spill that Sheiva's husband, Uriah, dies

97
00:08:21.199 --> 00:08:24.480
by David's order, and the child born from the union

98
00:08:24.560 --> 00:08:32.120
dies too. Justin justice comes quickly, but the consequences linger

99
00:08:32.279 --> 00:08:37.120
like smoke in the rafters. His house becomes haunted by

100
00:08:37.159 --> 00:08:42.279
the spiritual residue of this decision. After that, everything that

101
00:08:42.360 --> 00:08:48.879
can go wrong, it absolutely does. His son Amnon assaults

102
00:08:48.879 --> 00:08:56.720
his half sister timour Tamar. Absalom murders Amnon in revenge,

103
00:08:57.360 --> 00:09:02.000
then leads a rebellion that near destroys David's kingdom and

104
00:09:02.120 --> 00:09:08.120
Absalom's death hanging by his hair in a tree pierced

105
00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:14.480
through with spears, feels almost mythic, like divine theater. For

106
00:09:14.600 --> 00:09:18.639
a man caught between Heaven's justice and his father's sin,

107
00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:25.000
it's tempting to chalk up It's tempting to chalk all

108
00:09:25.080 --> 00:09:29.000
that up to coincidence or bad parenting, But the ancient

109
00:09:29.039 --> 00:09:32.799
worldview didn't see it in that way. To them, sin

110
00:09:32.960 --> 00:09:36.399
wasn't just a moral misstep. It was an opening a

111
00:09:36.559 --> 00:09:42.399
doorway for spiritual forces to enter and feed. David's repentance

112
00:09:42.480 --> 00:09:45.879
saved his soul, yes, but it didn't erase the ripple.

113
00:09:46.559 --> 00:09:51.480
The darkness he flirted with demanded payment, and it collected

114
00:09:51.559 --> 00:09:56.440
through his children, his dynasty, and his peace. The Bible

115
00:09:56.559 --> 00:09:59.840
calls this the sword that shall never depart from your

116
00:10:01.480 --> 00:10:07.360
That's not metaphor, that's a spiritual reality that certain sins

117
00:10:07.840 --> 00:10:12.600
carry generational weight. The same energy that fueled David's lust

118
00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:17.639
and deceit began to echo through his descendants like a

119
00:10:18.759 --> 00:10:23.200
curse on repeat. Solomon born from the ashes of that scandal.

120
00:10:23.559 --> 00:10:27.200
And here it's not only the kingdom but also the burden,

121
00:10:27.960 --> 00:10:33.440
the same attraction to power, women and compromise that eventually

122
00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:38.639
unravels him too. If you zoom out far enough, you

123
00:10:38.799 --> 00:10:42.519
see the pattern. Every time a great man falls, you've

124
00:10:42.559 --> 00:10:51.399
got pride, possession, power, pleasure, always the same. Fore a gates,

125
00:10:51.440 --> 00:10:55.840
always the same whisper behind them. We tend to think

126
00:10:56.000 --> 00:11:01.440
sin is personal, but it's more like radiation. It seeps

127
00:11:01.519 --> 00:11:06.480
into everyone standing too close. And here's the chilling part.

128
00:11:06.879 --> 00:11:10.639
David's family line was the one chosen to bring forth

129
00:11:10.759 --> 00:11:14.480
the Messiah. So the forces of darkness didn't just want

130
00:11:14.559 --> 00:11:18.639
David to fall. They wanted to corrupt that bloodline that

131
00:11:19.039 --> 00:11:24.320
would one day produce the Christ. You can almost feel

132
00:11:24.320 --> 00:11:27.879
the tug of war in every verse. Light trying to

133
00:11:27.960 --> 00:11:42.039
preserve the promise, darkness, trying to poison the vessel. Section three,

134
00:11:42.480 --> 00:11:46.080
The Eternal Throne, David's Covenant, and the War of the

135
00:11:46.120 --> 00:11:52.679
Messiah's Bloodline. When God told David that his throne would

136
00:11:52.720 --> 00:11:57.240
be established forever, that wasn't just poetic language. It was

137
00:11:57.279 --> 00:12:03.320
a supernatural contract, a divine signature inked in blood and prophecy.

138
00:12:04.000 --> 00:12:08.200
The Covenant and two Samuel seven promised that from David's

139
00:12:08.240 --> 00:12:13.360
lineage would come a ruler whose kingdom would never end.

140
00:12:14.279 --> 00:12:18.440
That kind of eternal language attracts attention not just in

141
00:12:18.519 --> 00:12:24.159
heaven but from hell, because the moment God makes a

142
00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:29.200
promise that big, the enemy drafts a straight up counter offensive.

143
00:12:29.960 --> 00:12:33.960
You can almost track it like a military campaign. From

144
00:12:34.039 --> 00:12:38.799
that day forward, David's descendants became prime targets for both

145
00:12:38.879 --> 00:12:45.840
political assassination and spiritual sabotage. The lineage is attacked again

146
00:12:46.200 --> 00:12:52.799
and again, through war, through exile, through internal corruption. Every

147
00:12:53.120 --> 00:12:56.960
attempt to erase that bloodline is at its core a

148
00:12:57.159 --> 00:13:02.240
strike against the coming Messiah texts take the exile of

149
00:13:02.559 --> 00:13:06.879
to Babylon. It wasn't just geopolitical punishment. It was an

150
00:13:06.919 --> 00:13:11.559
effort to scatter and dilute the royal seed. Later, Herod's

151
00:13:11.559 --> 00:13:15.919
massacre of the Innocence wasn't a paranoid king losing his mind.

152
00:13:16.600 --> 00:13:19.840
It was another move in the same ancient chess match,

153
00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:24.759
a demonic attempt to destroy the promised air before he

154
00:13:24.799 --> 00:13:30.480
could rise. That It's the same dark intelligence at stocked

155
00:13:30.519 --> 00:13:37.759
David's house, now working through empires and tyrants. But God's

156
00:13:37.799 --> 00:13:45.159
promises don't die quietly. Despite centuries of chaos, betrayal, and blood,

157
00:13:45.480 --> 00:13:53.360
the Royal Lion survived, preserved through ordinary flawed people. And then,

158
00:13:53.399 --> 00:13:57.840
one day, in a forgotten town called Bethlehem, the Covenant

159
00:13:58.360 --> 00:14:03.200
comes full circle. A child is born, not in a palace,

160
00:14:03.519 --> 00:14:07.639
but in his stable. The same lineage that once brought

161
00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:13.879
judgment and scandal now delivers redemption. Here's where things get cosmic.

162
00:14:14.879 --> 00:14:18.080
The war for David's throne doesn't stop at the birth

163
00:14:18.080 --> 00:14:23.159
of Christ. It simply changes theaters. Revelation calls Jesus the

164
00:14:23.279 --> 00:14:28.000
root and the offspring of David, meaning he's both the

165
00:14:28.080 --> 00:14:32.600
beginning and the end of that line. The spiritual war

166
00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:37.919
that raged around David's house still rages today, only now

167
00:14:38.919 --> 00:14:43.919
it's in us. Every believer becomes a battlefield between the

168
00:14:43.960 --> 00:14:49.639
same opposing forces that haunted David's story, Covenant and corruption,

169
00:14:50.360 --> 00:14:57.320
promise and pride, obedience and rebellion. So when you read

170
00:14:57.399 --> 00:15:01.720
to Samuel, don't just see it, see it as a

171
00:15:01.840 --> 00:15:05.759
king in sandals. See a man walking through the same

172
00:15:05.799 --> 00:15:10.519
invisible war that still plays out in headlines, in families,

173
00:15:11.039 --> 00:15:16.039
in hearts. The covenant continues, and so does the fight.

174
00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:32.559
So what do we take away from all this? David

175
00:15:32.720 --> 00:15:37.720
wasn't just Israel's greatest king. He was ground zero in

176
00:15:37.799 --> 00:15:41.919
a war that never really stopped. His story shows us

177
00:15:42.519 --> 00:15:46.080
that the line between the political, the personal, and the

178
00:15:46.159 --> 00:15:52.320
spiritual is raizor thin. One wrong move, one unchecked desire,

179
00:15:52.519 --> 00:15:56.679
and you're not just altering your own story, you're echoing

180
00:15:56.720 --> 00:16:02.039
that through generations. But the beauty of David's life is this,

181
00:16:02.879 --> 00:16:09.480
even in the fallout, God's promise still stood. That eternal

182
00:16:09.519 --> 00:16:13.360
throne wasn't built on David's perfection. It was built on

183
00:16:13.480 --> 00:16:17.639
God's persistence. And that's the thread that runs through all

184
00:16:17.679 --> 00:16:24.200
of us. We are flawed, We do stumble. We fall

185
00:16:24.679 --> 00:16:28.960
for the same whispers that tricked up kings, but the

186
00:16:29.000 --> 00:16:34.519
covenant still holds. The enemy may circle, but he doesn't

187
00:16:34.600 --> 00:16:39.480
right the ending. So as you go about your week,

188
00:16:39.960 --> 00:16:43.799
remember that you're walking through the same kind of invisible

189
00:16:43.840 --> 00:16:48.519
battlefield David did. Watch what doors you open, guard what

190
00:16:48.600 --> 00:16:52.120
you let in, and keep your eyes on the bigger war,

191
00:16:52.919 --> 00:16:57.200
the one for your soul, your legacy, and the promise

192
00:16:57.320 --> 00:17:02.159
is attached to your life. If this episode stirred something

200
00:17:55.160 --> 00:18:01.799
Here's the solder crawl underneath the soul co over covenant

201
00:18:02.359 --> 00:18:08.359
written on my palms, Every scars, the scripture, every tearser

202
00:18:08.680 --> 00:18:11.000
him even watches.

203
00:18:10.759 --> 00:18:13.519
Silent while the fire burns with it.

204
00:18:14.720 --> 00:18:20.279
I held the crown, but the way worsen every victor.

205
00:18:21.759 --> 00:18:25.759
Just pull me this blurred on the home.

206
00:18:26.640 --> 00:18:31.440
This blurred on my knee. Oh God forgifts, But the

207
00:18:31.480 --> 00:18:32.920
ghost came.

208
00:18:36.279 --> 00:18:43.119
The bone of side call, line of gold and rom

209
00:18:43.559 --> 00:18:57.119
around ever pays off. We fall down, the walk down Uni,

210
00:18:59.039 --> 00:18:59.720
the scar.

211
00:19:05.400 --> 00:19:26.799
Bms A lost my sons, and there both.

212
00:19:26.640 --> 00:19:28.079
Gray sand green.

213
00:19:29.079 --> 00:19:30.559
The curse runs.

214
00:19:30.359 --> 00:19:37.960
Deeper than busy proffers worse, but throws the bones of canes,

215
00:19:38.720 --> 00:19:43.839
a line of mercy, change of broken things, be.

216
00:19:44.200 --> 00:19:51.279
The lifebody back, the holy fight by.

217
00:19:53.039 --> 00:19:56.839
The giant, fight on the shade, both.

218
00:19:58.400 --> 00:20:08.200
From the supp the supermen. The throne of shadows calls

219
00:20:08.400 --> 00:20:09.160
my name.

220
00:20:09.880 --> 00:20:11.920
The golden rod.

221
00:20:12.200 --> 00:20:14.400
Sho in flame.

222
00:20:15.559 --> 00:20:17.000
And swayfall.

223
00:20:19.599 --> 00:20:26.720
The walk goes on, the start behind the crown and

224
00:20:27.000 --> 00:20:28.319
tie the.

225
00:20:34.759 --> 00:20:53.880
The song, the fun in the valley, the suit where

226
00:20:53.960 --> 00:21:02.240
the light forgets my face, Hot strain, go repart, Gray.

227
00:21:06.519 --> 00:21:36.079
Shaw, Still talk, I'll bucket about time, Still wait when

228
00:21:36.240 --> 00:21:37.480
the song is so
