January 10, 2016
Read: 2 Samuel 7:11b-13
Saul was the king that Israel deserved; David, the king that Israel needed. Both
were born in humility and raised into power, but once they were kings the
differences between them were revealed: one chased after power and dynasty, the
other after God’s own heart.
Yet even the king after God’s own heart was a broken king. Wonderfully different
from Saul and all of the worldly kings, David still showed himself to be ruined within
and used the power that God gave to him for dreadful purposes. So God saw fit to
rescue us from our broken kings. Honoring David’s faith with a promise, God chose
to enter our broken race through the family of David, a God-loving yet sinful man.
This One born into David’s family would be no oppressive, foolish Saul, nor even a
godly David. He would be a Son that David could not have imagined, God Himself in
flesh among us. With no sin to mar His heart this King would be the King we truly
need, One who would never do anything to hurt us. A king will come, God promised
David, who will reign forever, but how can He do this? Don’t kings die long before
the arrival of “forever”? And when a king is dead, no matter how excellent he may
have been in life, he becomes a terrible ruler. Dead men make horrible kings. But
what if a king could defeat death itself?
Into David’s family He was born. Born to build up David’s house and to spread the
reign of that dynasty over all the earth. Born so that God might establish His
kingdom. Born to defeat the great enemy of Death and to sit forever on the throne
of righteousness. So the promise to David is kept in Jesus, our mighty King who
reigns forever.
Our God Reigns! - Chris
