God Will Build You A House

The shepherd boy that became Israel’s greatest king is the account of King David’s life and reign.  It was the standard by which all future kings would be measured. David had a home built with the best materials of stone and cedar wood. He had wives, concubines, sons and daughters, all enemies subdued and paying tribute, the Ark is brought into Jerusalem and the kingdom is established. King David ushers in “The Glory Days Of Israel.”

It is at this time that David expresses his desire to build the Lord a House, a tabernacle for Him to dwell. The prophet reveals to David that it is not him who would build the Lord a house, but “because he had it in his heart to build the Lord a house, God would build him a house.” That promise holds true for us today, that if we would build God a house, then He would build ours.
