Political motivated people, that destroy all in their pathway to power unfortunately have experience seasons of unforgiveness.’ Quote RGA

Absalom 

Joab knew that David longed to see Absalom. Three years had passed since Amnon died. Joab sent a widow to David, begging mercy for a son who killed his brother. Everyone wanted vengeance. David promised to protect him. She accused David of banishing his own son. David guiltily called Absalom to Jerusalem, but resisted seeing him two more years. Absalom failed twice to get Joab to intercede, finally setting Joab's barley fields on fire, provoking him to reunite them.

2 Samuel 14:33 - Absalom "bowed himself on his face to the ground before the king: and the king kissed Absalom."

Deceitful Prayer 

Absalom told David that during his exile, he vowed to the LORD that if he ever returned to Jerusalem, "then I will serve the LORD." He immediately asked permission to "pay my vow, which I have vowed unto the LORD, in Hebron." Several Bible commentators suspect that Absalom lied (never made that vow). He was conspiring to win the hearts of the people. Hebron was a likely place to be crowned king. Some people boast of their praying to legitimize evil schemes.

2 Samuel 15:9 - "The king said unto him, Go in peace. So he arose, and went to Hebron."

Conspiracy

Absalom immediately capitalized on David's acknowledgment. He worked the streets feverishly to win friends and influence people. His entourage included fifty men with chariots and horses. He unabashedly wanted to steal the hearts of the men of Israel. He wanted to be king. Evil men MUST conspire to get things they are not supposed to have.

2 Samuel 15:10-12 - "Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, As soon as ye hear the sound of the trumpet, then ye shall say, Absalom reigneth in Hebron. ...the conspiracy was strong; for the people increased continually with Absalom."

Evil Out of Thine Own House

David’s old sins called for another payday. Nathan's prophecy said, "I will raise up evil against thee out of thine own house." A messenger brought the news. 
"The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom." 
David told all his servants at Jerusalem to flee, "for we shall not else escape from Absalom." Sin costs so dearly.

2 Samuel 15:23 - "And all the country wept with a loud voice, and all the people passed over: the king also himself passed over the brook Kidron, and all the people passed over, toward the way of the wilderness."

Give Your Enemies To God 

Absalom conspired hard to overthrow David's government. David fled Jerusalem for safety's sake. Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and the Levites brought the Ark of the Covenant, but David sent them back to monitor the situation and report to him. He learned that Ahithophel, Bathsheba's grandfather and David's counselor, had defected to Absalom. David asked God to turn Ahithophel's counsel to foolishness. God did. Ahithophel was discredited and hanged himself. Give your enemies to God.

2 Samuel 15:31 - "David said, O LORD, I pray thee, turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness."

David Fasts For The Baby

Nathan prophesied that the baby of David's adultery would die. David fasted and prayed seven days. Still the child died. David washed, dressed, went to the house of God and worshipped. Then he ate. Everyone expected him to mourn, but David wisely accepted both God's mercy and His justice.

2 Samuel 12:22-23 - "I fasted and wept: for I said, Who can tell whether GOD will be gracious to me, that the child may live? But now he is dead, wherefore should I fast? ...I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me."

The Birth Of Solomon

David suffered immeasurable consequences for his sins. But he earnestly repented with prayer and fasting, and fully restored his relationship with God. God still loved him and gave David and Bathsheba another child, named Solomon - "peaceful," or Jedidiah - "beloved of the LORD."

2 Samuel 12:24-25 - "David comforted Bathsheba his wife, and went in unto her, and lay with her: and she bare a son, and he called his name Solomon: and the LORD loved him. And he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet; and he called his name Jedidiah, because of the LORD."

The Show Must Go On

Although David nearly destroyed himself with Bathsheba and Uriah, life forced him to move forward. He was still King of Israel. Joab sent news that he was close to taking the royal city of their vicious enemies, the Ammonites. David quickly organized an army and attacked Rabbah, slaughtering its people, and returning victoriously to Jerusalem. Despite your failures, there are victories ahead.

2 Samuel 12:30 - "He took their king's crown from off his head, ...gold with the precious stones: and it was set on David's head. And he brought forth the spoil of the city in great abundance."

The Sword Strikes David's House

Nathan prophesied that because of David's sins, the sword would never depart from his house. The first occurrence came whenever his son, Amnon, raped and humiliated his daughter Tamar. Tamar's brother, Absalom, rabidly hated Amnon in silence for two years. Then Absalom invited Amnon to a sheep-shearing with all the king's sons. He instructed his servants to kill Amnon, which they did. Absalom then fled from David for three years.

2 Samuel 13:36 - "The king's sons came, and lifted up their voice and wept: and the king also and all his servants wept very sore."

We need to understand that during all this greatness coupled with human error God did alot of good things. This video should make you understand the great love He has for all, especially those who love him .
