A salient objective of weekend
prayers is to understand God’s
Word better by knowing the
Context & how the Mega Theme
develops through each book.
You’re encouraged to spend just
5 mins to get a good perspective
and boost loving & trusting God.
Over the last seven weekends,
we had been meditating on the
first five books of Israelite history.
From Joshua the importance of
obeying God & doing it His way.
Fr Judges, disobedience means
defeat & repentance deliverance.
From Ruth, human faithfulness
facilitates God’s redemption plan.
From 1st Sam, God’s desire the
devotion of his people to him.
From 2nd Sam, repentant attitude
and responsiveness to God’s will.
Continuing, 1 & 2 Chronicles
describe the same period of
Jewish history as 2Sam to 2Kings
but from a priestly perspective.
After tracing king’s David royal
line back to the beginning;
1 Chronicles outlines the spiritual
significance of David’s righteous
reign, demonstrating how
the nation prospers when its
leaders honour and obey God.
Emphasis is on proper worship
of the one true God – a worship
David’s life exemplifies.
We will cover 1 Chronicles in
one weekend over two parts:
1Chron 1-16:David’s Genealogies,
Accession & the Ark of God.
IChron 17-29: David’s Covenant,
Temple for God & Final Words.
