GOD's covenant with DAVID

 

1 Samuel 16:13

King James Version

13 Then Samuel took the horn of oil, 

and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: 

and the Spirit of the Lord came upon David 

from that day forward. 

So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.


We've witnessed the "POST-flood COVENANT".

That was GOD's covenant with Noah.

Then we wrote about "GOD's covenant with ABRAHAM".

Now, SPIRIT wants "GOD's COVENANT with DAVID" written.

These verses speak of that covenant.


Psalm 18:50

King James Version

50 Great deliverance giveth he to his king; 

and sheweth mercy to his anointed, 

to David, 

and to his seed for evermore.


Psalm 89:3-4

King James Version

3 I have made a covenant with my chosen, 

I have sworn unto David my servant,

4 Thy seed will I establish for ever, 

and build up thy throne to all generations. 

Selah.


Psalm 89:19-37

King James Version

19 Then thou spakest in vision to thy holy one, 

and saidst, 

I have laid help upon one that is mighty; 

I have exalted one chosen out of the people.

20 I have found David my servant; 

with my holy oil have I anointed him:

21 With whom my hand shall be established: 

mine arm also shall strengthen him.

22 The enemy shall not exact upon him; 

nor the son of wickedness afflict him.

23 And I will beat down his foes before his face, 

and plague them that hate him.

24 But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him: 

and in my name shall his horn be exalted.

25 I will set his hand also in the sea, 

and his right hand in the rivers.

26 He shall cry unto me, 

Thou art my father, my God, 

and the rock of my salvation.

27 Also I will make him my firstborn, 

higher than the kings of the earth.

28 My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, 

and my covenant shall stand fast with him.

29 His seed also will I make to endure for ever, 

and his throne as the days of heaven.

30 If his children forsake my law, 

and walk not in my judgments;

31 If they break my statutes, 

and keep not my commandments;

32 Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, 

and their iniquity with stripes.

33 Nevertheless my lovingkindness 

will I not utterly take from him, 

nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.

34 My covenant will I not break, 

nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.

35 Once have I sworn by my holiness 

that I will not lie unto David.

36 His seed shall endure for ever, 

and his throne as the sun before me.

37 It shall be established for ever as the moon, 

and as a faithful witness in heaven. 

Selah.


Isaiah 55:3-4

King James Version

3 Incline your ear, and come unto me: 

hear, and your soul shall live; 

and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, 

even the sure mercies of David.

4 Behold, 

 have given him for a witness to the people, 

a leader and commander to the people.


Jeremiah 33:14-17

King James Version

14 Behold, the days come, 

saith the Lord, 

that I will perform that good thing 

which I have promised unto the house of Israel 

and to the house of Judah.

15 In those days, 

and at that time, 

will I cause the Branch of righteousness 

to grow up unto David; 

and he shall execute 

judgment and righteousness in the land.

16 In those days shall Judah be saved, 

and Jerusalem shall dwell safely: 

and this is the name wherewith she shall be called, 

The Lord our righteousness.

17 For thus saith the Lord; 

David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne 

of the house of Israel;
