I learn that God dwells in the high and holy place of his eternal transcendence where no one else can go and also dwells with him who is of a contrite and lovely spirit. The idols and their worshippers shall come to nothing; but those who trust in God's grace, shall be brought to the joys of heaven. With the Lord there is neither beginning of days, nor end of life, nor change of time. His name is holy, and all must know him as a holy God.

Isaiah 53 describes the atoning suffering and the victory of the Messiah, who will bear the sin of the world. God had exalted him to the highest place and gave him a name that was abov every name. The name of Jesus every knee should bow (Philippians 2:9-11)

David couldn’t build the temple because he was a man of war and had shed blood. But David preparaed materials for the building of the temple for his Son Solomon. David wrote psalms that make up much of the music that is sung and played during worship, first in the tent he pitched for the ark, and later for use in the temple itself.

God’s power We can all learn a lot from David, who as we know is a man after "God's own heart"!

Shimei was probably blaming David for the death of Abner. Joab had killed Abner to avenge his brothers death and for the death of Saul’s sons and grandsons David allowed him to speak because he felt God may have been in it.

Fighting between father and son happens all the time Davids sins

Absalom appeared to be a favorite of the people. He was handsome, He granted the public favors for there support. He takes advantage of his position to get the people on his side. David should have punished Absalom David couldn’t discipline his own family and friends

Joab took a risk to bring David and Absalom back together] to change the present situation [literally “change the face of the matter” (David’s strained relationship with Absalom)]. My lord has wisdom like that of an angel of God—he knows everything that happens in the land.” Joab wanted to see the family back together and peace to the kingdom David still had alot of guilt over his sin and the death of his son Amnon. He also wasn’t invovled much with Absalom upbringing

David was angry, but he did not do anything. Because of David’s scandalous behavior with Bathsheba, David felt he had no moral right to rebuke his son.

But he would not hurt Amnon because he was his firstborn David’s action made it easy for Absalom to take matters into his hands and killed his brother

Predestination is part of God’s decree, his eternal purpose in which he has decided all that will take place, ordaining everything for the manifestation of his glory. That we were chosen by God, we did not chose Him He predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will.

To seek the Lord means to turn to God, to desire to be in a relationship with him, and to come into his presence for fulfillment, strength and help. It is the most important relationship we have, but we often treat it secondary to everything else Seeking the Lord means we are willing to carve out time every day to seek his presence continually. The things that God thinks and purposes are not the things that man thinks and purposes, and therefore, because the thoughts are different, the outcomes of them in deeds are divergent. Isaiah 55:8-9 = “For My thoughts are not your thoughts,Nor are your ways My ways,” declares the Lord.“For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways And My thoughts than your thoughts. We need to seek His truth that he reveals it, and then embrace it as our own Repentance leads to salvation and is essential to our eternal happiness. It is a change of mind and heart that gives us a fresh view about God, about ourselves, and about the world. It includes turning away from sin and turning to God for forgiveness. It is motivated by love for God and the sincere desire to obey His commandments. If our seeking becomes shallow we won’t be able to find God We must continue to search for God so we can get to know him and follow his ways.
