Bible Study
Forged Fellowship
“The Strength That Keeps the Lamp Burning”
Every man reaches a season where strength alone is no longer enough. The weight feels heavier, the battles last longer, and while faith remains steady, endurance is tested. This Bible study meets men in that moment.
In 2 Samuel 21:15–22, we meet David not as the young giant-slayer, but as a faithful, weary king whose season is shifting. God does not abandon him. He preserves him. Through brotherhood, wisdom, and protection, the “lamp of Israel” is kept from burning out.
This study explores three key truths:
Even God’s chosen grow weary
God’s strength is often revealed through others
The lamp must be protected to keep burning
Men are challenged to rethink strength not as doing everything alone, but as trusting God enough to walk in brotherhood. Like the four men in Mark 2:1–5 who carried their friend to Jesus, God often works through others to sustain us.
Forged Fellowship exists for this purpose so no man walks alone, faith is sharpened, and the light God placed in us continues to shine. “As iron sharpens iron, so a man sharpens the countenance of his friend” (Proverbs 27:17).
I. Even God's chosen grow faint
II. 4 Giants, and the 4 Men
III. The Lamp that must be protected

"Now when He got into a boat, His disciples followed Him. And suddenly a great tempest arose on the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves. But He was asleep. Then His disciples came to Him and awoke Him, saying, “Lord, save us! We are perishing!” But He said to them, “Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?” Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. So the men marveled, saying, “Who can this be, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?”

Man Overboard
Identifying the Jonahs in Your Life
"Therefore they cried out to the Lord and said, 'We pray, O Lord, please do not let us perish for this man’s life, and do not charge us with innocent blood; for You, O Lord, have done as it pleased You.' So they picked up Jonah and threw him into the sea, and the sea ceased from its raging."
Reflection
Does this sound familiar to you? Have you ever had to figuratively throw someone overboard, remove them from your life, because they were running away from God? The decisions they were making were affecting your life and bringing you down in a sinking ship.
