jeremiah7

2 Samuel 2:4, 2 Samuel 5:3,4

Then the men of Judah came to Hebron and there they anointed David king over the house of Judah………When all the elders of Israel had come to King David at Hebron, the king made a compact with them at Hebron before the LORD, and they anointed David king over Israel. David was thirty years old when he became king, and he reigned forty years.

The prophet Samuel had poured the anointing oil on David long back, but in reality it took a long time for David to sit on the throne as the ruler. God had told Samuel that He had chosen one of the sons of Jesse as the king of Israel and that he was to go and anoint him. Samuel obeyed God and did so. Then God went in to preparing David for becoming king. A shepherd of sheep had now to be transformed into a shepherd of God’s people and God orchestrated circumstances to build David as a king. During those times, he went through several traumatic experiences, difficulties, pain and rejection; but finally matured into a better person who would win many great victories. God molded him and finally when he was ready, God made him sit on the throne.

Jesus is also preparing us to sit with Him on the throne. That’s what written in Revelation Ch.3.v.21
“To him who overcomes, I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I overcame and sat down with my Father on his throne.”
Overcome….sin…satan….world….to sit on the throne.
