TEACHING-
I’ll add my past teaching on this chapter below.
In this chapter God tells Solomon he heard his request [chapter 8] and God will establish Solomon’s throne- if he walks in integrity and uprightness- like his father David did.
1Kings 9:3 And the LORD said unto him, I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication, that thou hast made before me: I have hallowed this house, which thou hast built, to put my name there for ever; and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually.1Kings 9:4 And if thou wilt walk before me, as David thy father walked, in integrity of heart, and in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded thee, and wilt keep my statutes and my judgments:1Kings 9:5 Then I will establish the throne of thy kingdom upon Israel for ever, as I promised to David thy father, saying, There shall not fail thee a man upon the throne of Israel.
Huh?
Integrity of heart- uprightness?
King David?
Yes- the same king that I have taught on the past few months.
The king who had the famous adulterous affair with Bathsheba-
The king who then had her husband killed-
The king whose own son mounted a rebellion against him-
Yes- that king.
How could God himself call David a man of integrity?
In one of the Psalms David says- Psalm 32:1 Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.Psalm 32:2 Blessed is the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.
The apostle will use this verse in his letter on Justification by faith-
6 Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,
7 Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.
8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. Romans
David- speaking by the Spirit- tapped into the understanding that in Christ- we are made righteous in the sight of God- by faith-
New International Version
This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, Rom. 3:22
God makes promises that a son of David will sit on the throne- forever-
…10For the sake of David Your servant, Do not turn away the face of Your anointed. 11The LORD has sworn to David A truth from which He will not turnback: “Of the fruit of your body I will set upon your throne. 12″If your sons will keep My covenant And My testimony which I will teach them, Their sons also shall sit upon your throne forever.”…
New American Standard Bible
Ps. 131
In Kings 9- God warns Solomon that if the king strays- and goes after other gods- then the throne will fail-
1Kings 9:6 But if ye shall at all turn from following me, ye or your children, and will not keep my commandments and my statutes which I have set before you, but go and serve other gods, and worship them:1Kings 9:7 Then will I cut off Israel out of the land which I have given them; and this house, which I have hallowed for my name, will I cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a byword among all people:
How many kings down the line will it take before they go after other gods?
Not many-
Because this will be the downfall of Solomon himself-
New International Version
As Solomon grew old, his wives turned his heart after other gods, and his heart was not fully devoted to the LORD his God, as the heart of David his father had been. Kings 11:4
Yet the ultimate promise of a son never failing- would be fulfilled thru Jesus.
Yes- Jesus came from the lineage of King David- and the scripture teaches us that he is the Son who sits on the throne forever
Romans 1:3
Verse Concepts
concerning His Son, who was born of a descendant of David according to the flesh,
2 Timothy 2:8
Verse Concepts
Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, descendant of David, according to my gospel,
Yes- the true fulfillment of a Son on the throne- comes thru Jesus Christ.
Solomon’s father was a man after God’s own heart-
1 Samuel 13:14King James Version (KJV)14 But now thy kingdom shall not continue: the Lord hath sought him a man after his own heart, and the Lord hath commanded him to be captain over his people, because thou hast not kept that which the Lord commanded thee.
Acts 13:22King James Version (KJV)22 And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave their testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will.
David was a king whom God would not count his sins against him.
A king who understood what it meant to be blessed- with the blessing of forgiveness- by God himself.
A King- who would some day have a Son-
One who came from his tribe- Judah-
New International Version
Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.”
Who would die on a cross- be buried in a tomb- and rise again the 3rd day.
Then- he would ascend into heaven- and be seated at the right hand of God.
So all people- regardless of their nationality-
Men and women boys and girls-
Could also experience the same blessedness that David spoke about in Psalm 32.
6 Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,
7 Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.
8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.
9 Cometh this blessedness then upon the circumcision only…
23 Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him;
24 But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead;
25 Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.
Rom. 4
The Son who would die for the sins of the world-
Yes- Jesus is the one- who kept the requirements laid down by God himself- for one who would reign forever-
Jesus was the son who never sinned-
Hebrews 4:15
For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
And because he Took all of fallen humanities sins upon him-
We too can be blessed-
Just like David was-
Psalm 32:1 Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.Psalm 32:2 Blessed is the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.
Amen [Some sites see here https://corpuschristioutreachministries.blogspot.com/2023/04/kings-9-text.html?m=0 ]
