2 Samuel 11:14-27
In the morning David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it with Uriah. In it, he wrote, “Put Uriah out in front where the fighting is fiercest. Then withdraw from him so he will be struck down and die.”
So while Joab had the city under siege, he put Uriah at a place where he knew the strongest defenders were. When the men of the city came out and fought against Joab, some of the men in David’s army fell; moreover, Uriah the Hittite died.
When Uriah’s wife heard that her husband was dead, she mourned for him. After the time of mourning was over, David had her brought to his house, and she became his wife and bore him a son. But the thing David had done displeased the Lord.
His army is flighting the Ammonites. but this spring the king is not with them. He is taking an after-siesta stroll in the cool, on the palace root. And from his vantage point, he can see down into the open inner courtyard if a nearby house, where the lovely Bathsheba is going through the monthly purification ritual following menstruation. The events that follow - adultery and murder - are the watershed in David's life. From this point on he reaps the bitter harvest of his sin. Although all seemed to be going according to plan. The Lord was not pleased with what David had done.
Why?
Proud and lose regular behavior may leading spiritual fall and closer to the sin.
Even David tried to cover everything by his detail plan, but the Lord knows it, so God is not pleased with what David had done.
David has adultery and murder two sins. How a man following with the Lord but fell in this matter. We are easy to pass the challenge when we are poor and difficult, but it is difficult to pass when we are full of everything.
Joab did not care about his solider, just obey the command of the king. Joab killed others.

David spent a lot of effort to write this letter.
David killed Uriah and his companion.
當一個人離開神,只為殺一個人目的,不惜其他人陪葬。
神藉烏利亞,不讓大衛得逞,把烏利亞灌醉,其是想把神灌醉。這是神攔阻犯這惡,但是我們抗拒聖靈,
大衛的身旁的人阻止帶拔士巴進宮,約押為何當幫手。因為大衛是王,沒有人敢勸戒,可能犯死罪。如果一個人聽不進去,沒有人敢說,最後也只有落得聽不進勸諫的王的後果。我們都是容易被罪縛住的人。求神讓我們在錯誤中,聽見主的聲音。我們是何等須要被指正的人。

How?
Follow the Lord closely and pray every day for ourselves, keep good behavior on daily life.
