God's King is victorious Introduction This is an infographic; multiple vignettes of David's reign being established. Sets the tone from here to chapter 9. The highpoint. This is a kingdom 'collage'. Not strictly chronological. eg the records of children and wives spans quite some time. v17 almost certainly early on in his rule and probably preceded v6-8 (if it hadn't, David would not have had the time to attack Jerusalem whilst also addressing the Philistine threat). v1-5 Graphic number one: All Israel is united under David's rule. v1-2 emphasis on YHWH's promise to emphasise that his word really has come to pass despite incredible opposition. v5 nb slow beginnings; 7 years at Hebron etc. And recap the earlier wilderness years, must have been brutal - eg all the disgruntled people joining him. 1 Sam 30 they want to stone him etc. Application Do not despise the day of small things If it seems slow, wait for it Those who wait for me will not be disappointed Take God at his word, despite time periods and despite opposition. Trust him in suffering, in evangelism, in discipleship v6-10 Graphic number two: David defeats the Jebusites and establishes the capital of the united kingdom. lame and blind a reference to the jeering Jebusites themselves. Possible connections to Matthew 21; the blind and lame came to him in the temple, and everyone was shouting Hosanna Son of David. By getting into the underground water shaft, which connected the internal city to the external underground water, they could cut off the bucket each time and dry the town into thirst and defeat. Jebusites the last of the list in Genesis 15.18-21 promised land. Repeated again and again Exodus 3.8, 17; 13.5; 23.23; 33.2; 34.11; Deuteronomy 7.1; Joshua 3.10; 12.8 But the Jebusites had never quite been definitively defeated - Joshua 15.63 and Judges 1.21 - but now David does and makes it a well placed capital of the united Kingdom. Thus God's promises are certain despite long time periods! Application He establishes Jerusalem through conquest, conflict, and victory. Jesus has established a new city, a new Jerusalem, which is his people, through conquest and conflict in his life, death, and resurrection. We are the new temple, the new Jerusalem. There's a home for the blind and broken here. v11-12 Graphic number three: David knew that the LORD had established him. v12 - ie God didn't make David king so that he could act like any other king, but so that he could function as a servant towards YHWH's people. Israel's welfare (cf Ephesians 1 ) Deuteronomy 17.20 , the king is to read the torah so that he won't think himself superior to his brothers. Application It should give us great joy when we read that Jesus 'sat down', the word means 'enthroned'. Because here is a King ruling over all things with utter integrity. A servant king we can trust with our lives, our futures, everything. A king given as head over all things to the church. What gives you greater joy, the Cross or the Crown? We mustn't separate the two, but if all you think of is forgiveness you are missing a huge aspect of what it means to be in Christ - new life in him. v13-16 Graphic number four: David's family gets bigger. The list of David's sons and wives shows his power, but also his great folly - cf Deut 17.17 . 'ultimately the kingdom is only safe in the hands of David's descendant who always does what pleases the Father ( John 8.29 )' Application David was an imperfect, sinful foretaste of the greater King. Let us praise Jesus that in him there is no injustice, no abuse of power, no trampling on the little guy, no bending the rules for selfish gain. v17-25 Graphic number 5: God defeats the Philistines through David. YHWH protects his kingdom by his guidance by his power - cf 5.20 YHWH has broken through my enemies like breaking out water. v24 Verb to 'go out' (yasa) common but often to do with leading into battle eg 5.2. So YHWH is a warrior. Not an effeminate Jesus, but a warrior Lord. 'Go up' theme. End of 2 Chronicles 36.23 ; may the LORD his God be with him; let him go up. And Matthew opens up with, here is the Son of David. Application God has won in Jesus! God has done battle and won. Our role is living in the reality of that victory. Unreality crumbles in the presence of the reality of the Kingdom, though it resists for a time. Conclusion God's King is victorious - since the power of God works in and through him The kingdom is united The capital city is established His enemies are defeated

David Anointed King of Israel 5 1 Then all the tribes of Israel u came to David at Hebron and said, “Behold, v we are your bone and flesh. 2 In times past, when Saul was king over us, w it was you who led out and brought in Israel. And the Lord said to you, x ‘You shall be shepherd of my people Israel, and you shall be prince 1 over Israel.’” 3 So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, y and King David made a covenant with them at Hebron z before the Lord , and they anointed David king over Israel. 4 David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and a he reigned forty years. 5 a At Hebron he reigned over Judah b seven years and six months, and at Jerusalem he reigned over all Israel and Judah thirty-three years. 1 6 c And the king and his men went to Jerusalem d against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, who said to David, “You will not come in here, but the blind and the lame will ward you off”—thinking, “David cannot come in here.” 7 Nevertheless, David took the stronghold of Zion, e that is, the city of David. 8 And David said on that day, “Whoever would strike the Jebusites, let him get up the water shaft to attack ‘the lame and the blind,’ who are hated by David’s soul.” Therefore it is said, “The blind and the lame shall not come into the house.” 9 And David lived in the stronghold and called it e the city of David. And David built the city all around from the f Millo inward. 10 And David became greater and greater, for the Lord , the God of hosts, was with him. 11 g And h Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, also carpenters and masons who built David a house. 12 And David knew that the Lord had established him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom for the sake of his people Israel. 13 And David took more i concubines and wives from Jerusalem, after he came from Hebron, and more sons and daughters were born to David. 14 j And these are the names of those who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon, 15 Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia, 16 Elishama, Eliada, and Eliphelet. David Defeats the Philistines 17 When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over Israel, all the Philistines went up to search for David. But David heard of it and went down k to the stronghold. 18 Now the Philistines had come and spread out in l the Valley of Rephaim. 19 And David m inquired of the Lord , “Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will you give them into my hand?” And the Lord said to David, “Go up, for I will certainly give the Philistines into your hand.” 20 And David came to Baal-perazim, and David defeated them there. And he said, “The Lord has broken through my enemies before me like a breaking flood.” n Therefore the name of that place is called Baal-perazim. 1 21 And the Philistines left their idols there, and David and his men carried them away. 22 And the Philistines came up yet again o and spread out in the Valley of Rephaim. 23 p And when David inquired of the Lord , he said, “You shall not go up; go around to their rear, and come against them opposite the balsam trees. 24 And q when you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, then rouse yourself, r for then the Lord has gone out before you to strike down the army of the Philistines.” 25 And David did as the Lord commanded him, and struck down the Philistines from Geba s to Gezer.
