David’s wish list

Last Saturday during our youth fellowship, we suppose to have our creative ministry. I been praying and seeking God on what should we do for that creative session. Some suggest we do a group study with those who will sit for the exam; but we feel it’s a bit late already for preparation because we need to study the subject and open a book again. As I prepare myself I told God, “God I surrender this week activity into Your hand and You speak to us what you want us to do.”

During our worship session, a voice in me told me to do History session and to study it. So I open up my bible and turn to 1 king 2:1-12. It’s about David’s advice to Solomon before he passed away. So we study the verse one at the time and question our self the famous way to study the word or history; which is Why, Where, When, Who, What and How (5W1H). After that we also learn how to meditate on the verse.

For me, there is few main points that David wants Solomon to remember before David’s pass away; verse 3 and verse 12.

V3 : And keep the charge of the LORD thy God, to walk in his ways, to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his judgments, and his testimonies, as it is written in the law of Moses, that thou mayest prosper in all that thou doest, and whithersoever thou turnest thyself,

David is a humble and faithful servant of God. He advice his son so also follow his footstep and be faithful to God. What we can learn and know about this verse is that, when we keep charge of the Lord thy God and when we walk His ways we will be PROSPERS!!! Yeah..That is true! This is the secret to be PROSPERS in our life, work, study, friendship, and anything. KEEP CHARGE OF THE LORD!! Many of people nowadays looking for better way to prospers or success or rich. But God said, KEEP CHARGE TO HIM AND WALK HIS WAYS!!! Don’t believe me?

V12 : So Solomon sat on the throne of David his father, and his kingdom was firmly established.

Yea…Solomon sat on the throne of David and his kingdom was FIRMLY ESTABLISHED!!! See it. When God promise us thing and if we KEEP CHARGE OF THE LORD AND WALK HIS WAS, we will prospers like Solomon did!!! So, there is no need to look for other solution but come to Jesus and He will prospers us!

What I learn here is that, when we make our life right in front of God, He will surely make us satisfied and fulfill our need. He will make us prospers in everything just like Solomon’s kingdom is widely known.

If we want our study to be success, come to the Lord and make our life straight. If we want our business success, come to Him, if we want our ministry established come to Him and make ourself right and if we want our life success, keep charge of the Lord and walk His ways. That is His promise.
