DAILY HOMILIES #King David

If you are not fired up like Eleazer, the seven brothers and their mother, Matatthaias, or Judas and his brothers, or even like Jesus (who cleansed the temple), then something is seriously wrong. Fight for morality, fight for truth, fight for justice, fight for the Christian faith.

Right from the time of King David, God already had the coming of Jesus Christ in mind. When we really consider the promise made to David, (that his throne shall be established forever), we cannot but agree that this promise was only fulfilled in Jesus Christ. The question is: “What is it about David that made him so pleasing to God?” The answer is our first lesson for today: Humility.
