STAR, WASHINGTON, GOD'S PROMI 1 Chronicles, GOLDEN T “Thy throne, O God, is for- ever and ever; And the scep- ter of uprightness is the scepter of thy kingdom.— Hebrews, 1.8. David’s army consolidated the unit- ed nation composed of all the tr by its sweeping victories in all direc- tions. He quickly conguered ‘‘the peoples of Edom, Ammon, Moab, Phi- listia and Amalek h Ammon put up a stubborn resistance and the Aramaean kings vid powerful spposition, he wi ruled in peawe all Syvia. in Sgypt, due to domestic w official corruption, freed him from any possible peril from the armies who in time past had frenquently overrun Palestine and dictated treaties and tribute from the conquered peoples. Similar political conditions existed in the formerly strong Asiatic empires. Peace reigned within the nation due subjects in race, language ng authorit with thelr “divers and religion.” Dug to the cont . tion of authority in Jerusalem and the concentration of wealth, resulting from trade, treaty and tribute from other nations, David became a power- ful and prosperous ruler. He exercised despotic control over his subjects, but never forgot the sourse of power, progperity and peace was Jehovah. Tt was this fact and his desire to unify the diverse elements of his kingdom by means of religious worship as well as his love for the Lor@, that prompt- ed the moving of the ark to Jerusa- lem. When he had erected a house of cedar for himself, he was moved to propose to Nathan, the prophet, the building of a temple for the glory of Jehovah. Although the man of God had commended the King's program to honor the Lord, he was directed to prohibit the building of the temple and give to David a promise that is the subject of our study this week. Temple Building Permit Refused. In his message to David, that re- voked the approval given by Nathan for the building of a temple to be erected for the glory of God and divine worship, the Lord did not condemn his religious purpose. The King proved by his pious plans that he had met the acid test of prospe He did not forget in his prosperity that he owed it all to God’s blessing. He looked upon his possessions as being in- trusted to him, as a_steward, to be used for the glory of Jehovah. David's proposal was a most worthy one. God approved of his good intentions when he told the King that “thou didst well that it was in thy heart to build an house for My name.” Years later Jehovah condemned the people for their neglect of His temple, when they lived in cefled houses and allowed Hia house to lie waste. We need more of the spirit of David, for we ought not to build magnificent homes for our own use and let our church buildings be cheap and dilapidated. It would open a new era if Americans should recognize their obligation to give the Lord the best, if we refuse to al- low our church-building programs to interfere with our gifts for missions and the furtherance of the kingdom. David’s career as a warrior that called for the necessary shedding of blood, we learn in his farewell mes- sage, was given to him as a personal reason for prohibiting Ris building the temple. This may have been based upon “the sacredness of blood.” as a symbol of which so rguch is made un- der the old covenant. Some hold that David had not completed his con- quests when he planned to build G¢ house and that just as long as he had to engage in battles his kingdom was not completely established. This stug- gests that the temple, as a symbol of the kingdom of God, was to represent peace as well as permanence of His realm. There was a deeper meaning to the veto, the Lord had no need of a temple; the Most High “dwelleth not in temples made with hands.” His existence and power do not depend upon the erection of great cathedrals, churches and temples, but our faith demands that we give expression to the vital tie that binds us to the EPISCOPAL.

The old testimony wor- ship was ceremonial. This prohibi- tion was a warning against allowing the worship of Jehovah ever falling into the stereotyped formalism of the pagan faiths. God's Covenant With David. The divine decree must have filled the King's heart with keen disappoint- ment. He had worked out the plans witlhy the greatest care and thought. David's experience had taught him to ccept God's will as the hest. calling to the King of how God had brought him from the flelds as a shep- herd boy and filled him with power assured him that the Lord would be th him during all his coming days. s promise to build for David a house s a clear reference to Solomon, whose privilege it would be to build the temple that the Kings wished to build in accordance with God’'s plans. David was assicned the privilege of preparing the materfals for its erec- tion and the organization of its wor- ship by the pllection of its hymn book of spiritual songs that would be used not only in Solomon’s temple but throughout the centuries and in all countries. Every one has a God-given task, just as much as David. We can- not ‘do our work unless we always seck to do the divine will and work. While the prime reference is to Solo- mon, yet upon the face of the promise there is the evidence that it must refer to a greater than David's immediate successor. The posterity of the King could only last forever through the coming of the Messiah, “who lives forever, and of whom there s no end.” The promised deliverer was first spoken of as “the deed of the woman,” then as “the seed of Abraham,” and then he is referred to as the son of Isaac, then of Jacob, and then of the Tribe of Judah. In this promise the family of David Is selected as the one from whom the Messiah will come to establish a kingdom that {s to be uni- versal in extent and eternal in its du- ration. In view of the thrice-made emphasis placed by Nathan upon the eternal character of the kingdom, we are forced to the conclusion that no mere man could possibly fulfill this prophecy of the coming King. The making of this everlasting covenant with David filled him with humility, so that he sought to commune with Jehovah with a heart overflowing with gratitude in recognition of His divine grace extended to the King. David's Gratitude for God's Promises. Alone with the Lord, David revealed his unselfishness and large-hearted- ness. He does not look upon this new definite promise concerning the Mes- siah as anything personal, but because he represented Israel. Looking back, the King recognizes that in a peculiar sense the nation was the chosen peo- ple of the Lord. While small numeri- cally among the nations, the Jews have given to the world the three greatest religiqns. In spite of their untold persecution, they have been preserved as a distinct people, even when scattered among all the nations of the earth. God redeemed them mi- raculously by the plagues, hammering off the shackles.of bondage from them, driving back the waves at the Red Sea until they walked across upon dry land, feeding them in the desert, until through assoclation with the Lord they became fitted to inherit the prom- ised land. Although the nations of the earth have not been able to absorb the Jewish people, they will some day, —_— __REFORMED, REFORMED 13th and M W, FIRST st o v, No''Eventie Sersion i1l Sesi, Z ___CHRISTIAN (White), CHURCH OF CHRIST Lord Bible School, 10:00 a.m. Lorg n ody of Chris The, Seven States _of THEOSGPHY.

David's prayer of thanksgiving for his nation's promised future that had been linked up in the promises made to David showed his faith in the Lord, whom he worshiped and whose will he prayed might be done. He did not seek this from any selfish purpose, for he, like all men, live in their sons. He prayed that God would fulfill His promises so that His name should be glorified and magnified forever, His' prayer revealed the heart of the great psalmist King. It was inspired by God's promise to build for David a house. He knew from the experience of a lifetime that he could trust Jeho- vah to fulfill His promises. He made a bold and confident appeal to the character of the Lord by deciaring “Thou art my God, and Thy words be true, and Thou hast promised.” He sought nothing less than the complete fulfillment of the covenant. While his prayer was answered in the estab- lishment of his dynasty, it was ful- filled especially in the coming of the Lord.
