Psalm 132

V 2  -  David Swore to the Lord

How he swore to the Lord,
And vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:


V 11

The Lord has sworn in truth to David;
He will not turn from it:



When man takes a step of faith, God blesses us in return for that step of faith.


When God called Abraham to leave his country, he took a step of faith.
and God made him father of faith.

Same with Sarah, why today every women who believed in Jesus is called daughter of Sarah. There were so many great women ( Mary, Deborah,Rebekah), but God has chosen Sarah because she took step of faith to walk with Abraham and more than that she considered Him as faithful 


Moses parents , even though the king has ordered to kill all the male children, they saw the child was beautiful and they were not afraid of kings command and they hid the child for 3 months.

This is the step of faith by Moses parents.
and God in return blessed Moses to be the prince of Egypt, gave wages for his mother to raise him up, ultimately he became the deliverer of the Israelites out of egypt.

So let us see what is Davids vow?

The most comfortable for a person is his bed.
I will not give sleep to my eyes and slumber to my eye lids.
until I find a resting place.


we see people  saying Until i find a good job, i will not eat , i will fast and pray
Until I buy the house,  i will pray.

Remember when he was saying this statement, he became the king.
he has the palace.

Until I find a house for My God , i will not sleep , the most comfortable thing in my life, i will leave it.

David says, I wont go to the comfort of my bed.


Great men and women of God have left their comfort places to go and serve and preach gospel around the world.

What is your most comfort place today that you can leave and use it for God, Gods house, Gods Kingdom?

is it your time of sleep?
is it your time of parties?

This statement from David really challenges me.

What is Gods promise back to David.

Davids descendants are blessed and God blessed Zion.

Because of one mans step of faith, God in return blessed descendants and God blessed the Church.
