1 Chronicles 15:1-16:3Getting it right took a great deal of cooperation and attention to detail, but David was determined to correct his former mistake. The ark of the covenant belonged in Jerusalem. Following the rules meant bringing the ark into the city with worship, rejoicing, and just lots of noise. It was not to be a mundane logistics task, but part of a celebration. David even distributed a meal to all Israel – another reason to remember the day – not because it was a solemn observance, but because it was a celebration. This is what it is like when the presence of God manifests.
LORD, make our lives acts of worship appropriate for your presence.
