1 Chronicles 28:1-10

Earlier, in 1 Chronicles 22:17, David had brought together the princes of the people. Now he gathers together with them all those who have a position or responsibility in Israel. Without doubt, all the men whose names fill chapters 23-27 are found there to listen to their lord. Not one would want to miss this great rally.

The Lord invites us also to meetings in which He wants to give us instructions. Are we not guilty if we absent ourselves for some trivial reason (Hebrews 10:25)?

The king communicates his most intimate and precious thoughts to all these men gathered around him. He urges them to seek out and keep all the commandments of the LORD. He converses with them about the glorious house which has to be built. And in particular he speaks to them of his son, in whom and by whom the whole project will be accomplished. These are matters which correspond to those things with which the Holy Spirit occupies us in ministry meetings.

Then David turns and addresses Solomon. Listen well to these words of a father to his son. They are addressed to us also: "My son, know thou the God of thy father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind . . . if thou seek him, he will be found of thee" (v. 9).
