God has given Israel a king after His own heart in David. This sermon unpacks a turning point in Israel's history: God's covenant with David. There are echoes of the promises made to Abraham but more importantly, promises that there will be a king from David's line that will reign forever. New Testament writers and Christians see this fulfilled in Jesus. God's intentions were for Israel to have a king that would lead them in a way that would be a blessing to all nations. It's a continuation of the overarching theme of God acting to reach all peoples.
