Before we pass over this chapter, we would do well to linger for a while. We would see that we are called to show kindness even to those who oppose us.

The Lord is not only One who shows mercy, but He has bound Himself to mercy through His covenant.

The Tenth Commandment shows us how impossible it is to keep the Law of God and our need for the Lord Jesus Christ.

There is nothing that can stand against the establishment of the kingdom of our Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus is David’s greater son; He is the one who reigns forever and ever.

A sermon by Elder Mike Burns

The greatest aid that we can have for trusting the Lord is to recount what the Lord has already done for us. The history of God’s faithfulness in His promises assures us that He will keep His Word.

After God had given David and Israel rest from all their enemies, David purposed in his heart to bless God by building Him a “house” so He would not have to “dwell in a tent.”
