When King David was settled in his
palace and the LORD had given him rest from all the surrounding
enemies.
The king said to Nathan the prophet
that he is living in a beautiful cedar palace, but the Ark of God is in a tent.
Nathan replied to go ahead and do
whatever David had in his mind, for the LORD was with him.
But that same night the LORD
said to Nathan, that He had never lived in a house from the day they came out
of Egypt. But always moved from one place to another with a tent and a tabernacle
as His dwelling but never complained about it. Instead the LORD said to David
that He will build a house for David and give him.
To Ponder:
Seek ye first the kingdom of God and
all these things shall be added unto you.
When we prioritize God's work first. He will take care of our needs. Build
the House of God and He will build a House for you.
God took him from tending sheep in
the pasture and selected him to be the leader of Israel.
God was with him wherever he went and destroyed all his enemies before his eyes.
Now God will make his name famous as no one ever lived on the earth!
And also provide a homeland for His people Israel, planting them in a secure
place where they will never be disturbed. Evil nations won’t oppress them as it
was in the past ..rather he would have rest from all his enemies. (2
Samuel 7:1-11 NLT)
Such is the blessings of those who fear the Lord n walk in His ways ..
