Introduction
1 Chronicles 28:20-21
1
1.
David was faithful God’s purpose.
David explained God’s purpose to the leaders around them.
It would have been easy for David to resent the blessings that Solomon was receiving for being chosen.
David had to be a man of war to provide peace for Israel.
Instead, he showed humility and good leadership by gathering the people around Him to explain what was about to happen.
By establishing Solomon’s kingdom, David was establishing God’s kingdom.
He had a New Testament mindset even though he wasn’t living in that time period.
Field of Dreams.
Ray Kinsella was working in his corn field when a voice whispered, “If you build it, He will come.”
He was then given a vision of building a baseball field where most of his corn crop was.
At the expense of his families well being, Ray used all that he had left to build a baseball field.
No one understood what he was doing.
Even his own family thought that he was being foolish.
Culturally, we are taught to live in the moment for ourselves as long as we can.
We are told keep things for ourselves.
God has a special purpose that goes beyond our generation.
Even though we have the resources to care for ourselves, we must be willing to allow the next generation to have their opportunity to carry out God’s purpose.
Part of that mindset is recognizing when it’s time to start blazing a trail for the next generation.
2. David provided resources for Solomon.
He provided in two ways:
He encouraged Solomon to lead.
(28:9-10)
He gave of his own resources and called the kingdom to provide from theirs.
(29:1-9)
He used his own generosity to encourage all the leaders of Israel to also give freely to the temple.
The people rejoiced in joining David and they gave with their whole heart.
There was more than enough for the temple to have everything that it would need.
This was a true sacrifice for the people.
They gave up opportunities of having wealth in order to Solomon and his generation to have everything that they would need.
Field of Dreams.
Ray has built his baseball field and crazy things are beginning to happen.
Baseball players from the past have come out of the corn fields to play night games, he’s hearing more voices like “ease his pain” and “go the distance”.
Everything he has done to listen to the voice has been caused him more and more sacrifice.
He even said, “before this, I had never done a crazy thing in my life.”
He’s pouring everything out in his life and he’s feeling like it’s eventually going to lead towards a payoff.
He hasn’t seen it yet, but he’s looking forward to it.
One of the most important aspects of church life is what we are doing today.
We are commissioning these young people to go and serve the Lord.
It’s important to ask the question, “What are we doing to encourage and equip young people to know Jesus?”
3. David was thankful for how God used him.
After David completed the preparation's of the temple, he led a prayer.
A prayer of Thanksgiving.
He declared that God is the source of riches and honor as everything ultimately belonged to God.
David attributed his success and wealth to God.
David asks for God to help them keep faithful to His covenant and for Solomon to have a faithful heart as he built the temple.
He paints a powerful picture of how hand off the baton to the next generation.
We have all been the David at some point and we have all be the Solomon.
How we respond in these moments are crucial.
Field of Dreams.
Movie Clip.
Ray, after making all these sacrifices finally says, “What’s in it for me?” Later on, he is going to learn that this was all done to give him an opportunity to spend time with his father one more time.
This moment made everything make sense.
Adults, are we prepared for our children to reap the benefit of our efforts?
Students, are you prepared to use the blessings that God has given you to be faithful to His call?
It is important for the church to know the role that God has placed for each generation.
All roles are important but they all require different levels of sacrifice.
We are called to pass on what the Lord has given.
