Day 7 - 1 Chronicles 19

From: Chapter-A-Day: Volume 3 By: Norman W. Berry

1 Chronicles 19 • 1 min. read • grade level: 7

V.1-5 We have read how that David’s power spread far and wide. We are reading of some who were suspicious of David’s motives, and shamefully treated his messengers. This story is quite a contrast with poor crippled Mephibosheth (2 Sam. 9).

V.6-19 This treatment led to defeat for these people.

It helps us to understand better when we remember that all this is a shadow of the time when the Lord Jesus will come in power and great glory (see your chart) at the end of the tribulation. At that time the nations shall act toward Him in different ways. One by one He will destroy them. In Psalm 18:36-45³⁶Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not slip. ³⁷I have pursued mine enemies, and overtaken them: neither did I turn again till they were consumed. ³⁸I have wounded them that they were not able to rise: they are fallen under my feet. ³⁹For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me. ⁴⁰Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies; that I might destroy them that hate me. ⁴¹They cried, but there was none to save them: even unto the Lord, but he answered them not. ⁴²Then did I beat them small as the dust before the wind: I did cast them out as the dirt in the streets. ⁴³Thou hast delivered me from the strivings of the people; and thou hast made me the head of the heathen: a people whom I have not known shall serve me. ⁴⁴As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me: the strangers shall submit themselves unto me. ⁴⁵The strangers shall fade away, and be afraid out of their close places. (Psalm 18:36‑45) the same facts are brought out.
