The ARK
The ark part of David’s story strengthens our view of Scripture.
1 chron 13 1-
13:2-4, David made two mistakes:
He consulted the commanders and the whole assembly, but he did not consult the word of God.
There is always a danger in assuming that we have the wisdom to make decisions.
When we have a decision to make we should consult God’s word first.
If there is no instruction in God’s word, then we are free to use our wisdom…and we should ask God to give us wisdom.
His motive for bringing the ark back was wrong.
He was wanting to inquire of the Lord before the ark (usually this was for the purpose of war).
However, the purpose of the ark was for God to hear the repentant prayers of the people.
After Uzzah died, David obviously went back and consulted God’s word.
He was angry with God, but God did not speak to Him about the matter.
Why?
Because God had already provided instruction.
15:13 Notice that David says that they did not inquire of the Lord the proper procedures.
1 chron 15 1-5
This strengthens our view of Scripture.
Reading God’s word is the same of inquiring of God.
A lot of times when we have a question of God, we need to understand that His answer is usually, “I have already giving you instruction on that!
Read the Book.”
Iva,
Thanks for reaching out!
The emphasis has been absolutely incredible!! Our people (in large measure) are staying with the readings.
Weekly we find people discussing it, posting about their readings on social media, and engaging in Sunday school.
They have definitely struggled with Leviticus and Numbers… but we have tried to keep them on track through the sermons and Sunday School.
We are emphasizing the redemptive thread on Wednesday nights and we have slowed down for the past 4 weeks and taught through the Tabernacle.
I think this has helped keep a “bigger picture” view of this challenging section of Scripture.
We have strongly encouraged the videos, the podcast and the devotionals.
THEY LOVE THEM!
These are great resources and they have benefitted greatly!
You have blessed us richly!
Thanks for championing Bible literacy!

The HOUSE
The house part of David’s story adds an installment of the Redemption Story.
2 sam 7 1-
David wants to build a house for the Lord.
Once again, he doesn’t have the right motives.
Later in David’s faith journey, he will discover that God promised to choose a place for the ark.
God does this in the book of times God promised this in Deuteronomy (; ; , , , ; , ; ; ; ).

How does God correct David?

31:11).
).
God reminds David where he came from.
God has taken David from the most humble position and made him ruler of Israel.
(This is reminiscent of Abraham)
A great name…like the promise to Abraham.
God affirms His promises in Deuteronomy.
God will designate a place for the ark and it will signify that a time of peace will follow.
2 sam 7 11-
David wanted to build a house (a building) for the Lord.
But the Lord will make a house (an everlasting household) for David…like Abraham.
Difficult Passage:
2 sam 7
Is God talking about Solomon or Jesus?
To answer this, we must go to .
psalm 89
Focus on 89:27-32
in , when it seems that God is speaking about Solomon, we find in , that God is speaking about the nation of Judah in the future.
But God has promised to:
Make David’s name great…like Abraham
Establish his throne forever…like Abraham
Establish his house (descendants) and kingdom forever.
(; ,,)
The ARMY
The army part of David’s story warns us about sin.
Isolation from God’s people and Ministry roles
Idleness when their is work to be done
Inclinations with no discipline
