📖 "Thus David son of Jesse reigned over all Israel. The time he reigned over Israel was forty years—he reigned seven years in Hebron and thirty-three years in Jerusalem. He died in a good old age [his seventy-first year], full and satisfied with days, riches, and honor. Solomon his son reigned in his stead." -I Chronicles 29: 26-28 Amplified Bible Classic Edition 
In this passage, we see the will of God in the life of David. He lived to be an old man. He died wealthy and with honor. God blessed David in all that did. God honored David because he endeavored to honor God. This is because he was a man after God’s own heart. David is a great example of a man that diligently sought the Lord. He wasn’t a perfect man. He made significant mistakes that affected many people. He sinned. He did a lot of things, but his heart was perfect towards God. God honored David’s heart and his love for Him. We can learn from the life of David. We don’t have to be perfect to walk with God. When we serve God with a pure heart and our motives are to please Him in all that we do, God will honor us. As you walk with God, you can expect a manifestation of His Goodness in your life. He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.
