In the earlier verses, we see Uzzah die after touching the ark and
King David consequently afraid of bringing the ark into Jerusalem.
Exposition
And the ark of the LORD
continued in the house of Obededom the Gittite three months – The ark of the LORD served as a symbol of the presence of God
guiding the people of God in the times of old. Obededom spotted a gap and
opened his house for the ark to be brought in. Today you have an opportunity to
allow the Spirit of God into your heart to guide and to teach you. Just as
Obededom did not exhibit fear so are you encouraged this day that you can only
derive benefits from accepting the Lordship of Jesus Christ.
and the LORD blessed
Obededom, and all his household – What can be better than
an assurance of eternal life !! How about the gifts and fruits of the Holy
Spirit !! Obededom was blessed and the world knew it. The blessing was extended
to all in his household. Physical blessings are also a part of the package. No
man serves God without blessing, for God cannot be indebted to anybody. He
always fulfils His part of the covenant.
Do something today that will cause your future generations to
appreciate and praise you forever. Let Jesus Christ in.
Prayer
I do not care about what
anyone would say, I ask that you come into my life. I accept that Jesus Christ
died for my sins and he is risen from the dead.
Help me Lord to grow in
you day by day. Let every blessing associated with accepting you into my life
not pass me by. Help me Lord to serve
you in any capacity and let the gifts of service be released unto me in Jesus
name. Amen
