David! Nothing else needs to be said about him. He was all out for God; crazy for God & hungry for His presence. This hunger was insatiable. The more he lingered in God's presence, the more he wanted to remain there.
When he had to find a resting place for the ark, he just was so restless! He wouldn't rest till he didn't find God's ark a place to be kept safely.
Wherever God's presence is, there is His divine provision & protection; this David was well aware of. There is nothing you can lack if you are with your provider.
“I absolutely will not enter my house, Nor get into my bed-- I certainly will not permit my eyes to sleep Nor my eyelids to slumber, Until I find a place for the Lord , A dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob (Israel).” “This is My resting place forever” [says the Lord ]; “Here will I dwell, for I have desired it. “I will abundantly bless her provisions; I will satisfy her poor with bread. “Her priests also I will clothe with salvation, And her godly ones will shout aloud for joy. “There I will make the horn (strength) of David grow; I have prepared a lamp for My anointed [fulfilling the promises]. “His enemies I will clothe with shame, But upon himself shall his crown shine.”
PSALMS 132:3-5, 14-18 AMP
Today, our body is God's Holy Temple. He resides in our hearts. But, has God really found a resting place in your heart?
Have a blessed day!
