When to be Loyal | Pastor John Eaton | Loyalty—A Quality God Loves | 5/04/2025

In this life-changing sermon, we explore what it means to honor the position God appoints — even when the person in that position seems unworthy.

From David’s loyalty to Saul, to Jacob’s impatience with God’s promise, to Absalom’s rebellion against his father David — this message dives deep into the tension between loyalty to people and loyalty to God’s mission.

What you’ll learn:

Why David refused to take shortcuts to the throne

How Jacob’s manipulation cost him years of peace

The danger of misplaced loyalty in relationships, family, and church

How to discern when loyalty is godly, and when it’s compromise

Why God honors those who honor His appointed order

“David wasn’t being loyal to Saul. He was being loyal to God.”

You’ll be challenged to examine your heart:
Who are you loyal to?
Are they building or tearing down?
Are they walking in God’s mission or pushing their own agenda?

This message will help you develop godly loyalty — the kind that builds unity, honors authority, and stays rooted in love.

“God honors those who honor.” – 1 Samuel 2:30
