The Call Of A King
Today we begin a brand new series: The Life of David (The Making of a King). Other than Jesus, no one in Scripture has more written about them than David — over 60 chapters, more than 1,000 mentions, and countless lessons about leadership, worship, and walking with God. In this opening message, “The Call of a King,” Pastor Dustin Woodward shows us how God’s call on David’s life reminds us of our own calling: Key Scriptures: 1 Samuel 16:6–13 | Luke 16:10 | 2 Corinthians 1:21–22 3 Truths from David’s Call: God sees possibility where others see limits — People look at outward appearance, but God looks at the heart. God finds you in the field — Faithfulness in small things prepares you for bigger things. The anointing reveals God’s purpose — Anointing may not change your assignment overnight, but it always changes your identity. David’s story proves this: you don’t need the approval of people to be chosen by God. His call isn’t about pedigree, popularity, or position — it’s about His plan. “Anointing = God’s empowerment for God’s assignment.” Series Theme: This isn’t just the story of David — it’s the story of every believer learning how God shapes us through calling, character, and anointing to step into His purpose. Whether you’re in the “field” waiting, in a season of testing, or walking in your calling, God is forming a king’s heart inside of you.
