WORSHIP LIKE DAVID!
2 Samuel 12:20a- Then David arose from the earth and washed and anointed himself and changed his clothes. And he went into the house of the LORD and worshiped.
I want to live a life of worship like David! This passage is from the account of David after he committed the sins of adultery with Bathsheba, Uriah’s wife and then sent him to die in battle to cover it up because she became pregnant with David’s baby. Nathan the prophet confronted him about it and David was repentant and forgiven by the Lord, but the Lord told him the newborn baby would die because of his sin. (God must discipline us) David fasted and prayed begging God to save the life of his baby but the Lord did what He said he was going to do. BUT, after David realized the baby was dead, he rose from the ground, washed, anointed himself, changed his clothes, and went into the house of the LORD to worship Him!! He could have easily stayed there on the ground in the fetal position for days in shame and disgust with himself and feeling that God could never love him again the same way, but he went and worshiped, remembering that Nathan said God had forgiven him (2 Sam 12:13).
No matter what trials this life may be bring, may our first response be to worship the God who is control, who knows the very details of our lives better than we can ever know, who throws our sins as far as the east is from the west (Psalm 103:11-12) when we get off the path of His perfect plan He has laid for us, and who loves us farther and deeper than any love relationship in our lives. This is true worship; not worshiping because we feel like it but worshiping because He is worthy and because of our love relationship with Him.
