Beyond Strength to Sacrifice

David is very calculating with his armies… numbers and measuring his worth.  He is finding his power, comfort and security in armies, not in God.  Think of how far he has come since the encounter with Goliath.  Or from the caves with his few but mighty men.  David is so condemned because he has move from fully trusting in God to fully trusting in self.  When we go there, God often meets us with consequence.
