A Blessed Home
How did people know that the house of Obed-edom was blessed?
No.
All that was in possession of him was not taken away.
And Scripture emphasises why his house was blessed: “…because of the ark of God”.
If he were then there would not be a blessing to the home of Obed-edom who housed the very instrument used by God.
Note that Scripture emphasises the purpose behind Obed-edom being blessed: “…because of the ark of God”.
How can we have a blessed home today?
What does a blessed home look like?
Obeying what the Lord has commanded
How should the home be run?
What are the roles of husband and wife, what are the roles of parents and children?
Some simple roles found about the house are:
Husbands
Providing for the household
Love your wife
Fathers
Provoke not your children to wrath
Parents
Wives
Honour husband
Build your house
Michal in our passage despises David for his actions seeing it rather as exhibitionism rather than joyous worship.
Mothers
Love your children, love your husband
Parents
Training
Discipline
Children
Obedience
Honour your parents
Honour your parents
Michal Despises David
In the context of this passage when Michal despised David she held him contempt or disdain.
It would be the exact opposite of what Scripture states for a wife to hold her husband in honour.
How can wives despise their husbands?
Don’t fulfil their role within the home
Don’t support or help their wife
What would be a remedy if a wife finds herself despising her husband?
Note there’s no reconciliation with Michal, the passage here ends:
There’s a continued loss of intimacy and the longer you continue to despise your husband the harder it will be to turn back.
And it’s the same for the husband too, don’t get bitter against the wife.
What new information do we find about this attempt to take the ark?
David had prepared a tabernacle for the ark to reside, we aren’t informed of this in the first attempt
:
2. David assembles the children of Aaron, and notice who is mentioned first - Kohath, why is this important?
And why are the sons of Merari mentioned?
And why are the sons of Gershom mentioned?
Numbers 4:
And why are the sons of Elizaphan mentioned?
Numbers 3:
And the sons of Hebron and Uzziel?
Numbers
3.
He orders the priests to be sanctified.
There are several mentions in Scripture when Aaron is asked to be sanctified when approaching the Lord.
4. David sacrifices to the Lord when the Levites went 6 paces
It’s implied here that upon that first move of 6 paces that sacrifices and offerings were offered.
It appears the confirmation of the first 6 steps David knew the Lord was well pleased and David therefore sacrifices
