Today we are reading 1 Chronicles 22. In this chapter we read about the elderly King David making preparations for Solomon to build the Temple. “”Now, my son, the Lord be with you, so that you may succeed in building the house of the Lord your God, as he has spoken concerning you. Only, may the Lord grant you discretion and understanding, that when he gives you charge over Israel you may keep the law of the Lord your God. Then you will prosper if you are careful to observe the statutes and the rules that the Lord commanded Moses for Israel. Be strong and courageous. Fear not; do not be dismayed.”
1 Chronicles 22:11-13 ESV David is going to great lengths to provide everything his son needs to build a Temple that will be famous among the nations. He wants to do his best for God. What lengths do you go to in serving God? Would you say you give your absolute best for God? How could you “take it up a notch”? Why do you think David was son driven to serve God? May you be consumed with your service to Jesus! Pastor Tim
