Instruction for Mankind

God promised to establish His kingdom forever through David’s seed. In response, David humbly sat before the Lord to offer a prayer marked by exclamation, observation, explanation, and declaration. By faith, he acknowledged that all mankind would be blessed, not because of his own importance or abilities but because of God’s greatness. Alistair Begg points out that hearing God’s word enables us to see life and history from a new perspective and to confidently stand on His promises.
