David

I've been reading all off King Davids final Psalms in Cover to Cover 72, 133, 124, 104, 145, 47, 33, 30, 65, 29, etc and wow what words of encouragement from a guy who had been betrayed by his closest friends, watched his family fall apart, have a wife who snubbed him, been driven off the throne by his own son and chased by a madman father in law making him live in caves. and yet in his closing season of life he takes time to leave us some amazing stuff. He dosn't relate his experience, he just points to heaven.
Psalm 65;1 Praise is rightfully yours God in Zion.
29:11 The Lord gives His people strength; the Lord blesses His people with peace.
33:18 Now the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him.
33:20 We wait for the Lord, He is our help and shield.
145:9 The Lord is good to everyone.
and probably his final one 72:18 May the Lord God, the God of Isreal be praised Who alone does wonders. May His glorious name be praised forever; the whole earth is filled with His glory.

Read his final words in 2 Samuel 23: 1-7; 1 Kings 2:1-9 Absolutly incredible.
Is it any wonder 1 Chronicles 29:28-30 records He died at a good old age, full of days, riches and honour.

Sorry for sounding like a bible study today but I was blessed by this lately and it encourages us to keep looking above the muck and mire of life to our eternal destiny.
