We are going to start a series that starts with King David and leads all the way to Christ
Matthew 1:1-6 David the King to Jesus
How did this come to be?
How did God work through all these kings?
How do we see Christ in all these kings as they sat on the throne of David as a forerunner to Jesus?
In every sermon we want to see Christ!
2 Samuel 7 God’s promise to David
God establishes man, man does not establish God

A true heart of worship

David is a man after God’s own heart (1 Samuel 13:14) verse 1
He replaced Saul as king because Saul would not obey God and therefore did not bring rest to the nation of Israel
Two times Saul failed, first time he did not kill all the animals of the defeated country, second time he did not wait for Samuel to offer a sacrifice before battle
David’s victory and national peace are because of his relationship with God
He trusted God in battle before he became king when he fought Goliath
It was this heart for God that gave him the desire to build a temple to God (verse 2-3)
2 Samuel 6:14 David dances with all his might
Nathan knowing the heart of David gave him permission to move forward
Because of David’s love for God he made big plans for God, but God had bigger plans

A true relationship with God

God is the one who establishes (vs 4-7)
God brought David from shepherd to king (vs 8)
God gave David a great name not the other way around (vs 9)
God will make Israel so that they will not move anymore (vs 10)
He is going to make Israel a kingdom forever, much longer than a building can last!!!
God is the one who chastens
Long after David is gone, God will continue his promise
He will be as a father to David’s descendents to bring about his plan of establishment
Solomon’s temple was a token of promise that God was with David’s family after his death

A true promise from God

David understands what has happened here
Who am I, O Lord God (vs 18-19)
David understands this is to big a promise for a man, he did not know God’s full plan of bring Christ into this promise
By bring Christ, God not only establishes the line of David for ever but all those who trust in him will be secured
Ephesians 2:11-21 We were strangers to this promise
Ephesians 3:6 We are made partakers of this promise
