- "1 Chronicles 17".
David desires to build a temple for God, but the Lord tells him through Nathan that he will not build it—God will establish David’s house instead. God promises to raise up a son who will build the temple and whose kingdom will last forever. David responds with a prayer of humility and gratitude, overwhelmed by God’s grace.
Christ-Foreshadowing: God’s promise of an everlasting kingdom through David’s son points directly to Christ, the eternal King who fulfills the covenant completely.
