Restoring True Worship

 “And these are they whom David set over the service of song in the house of the LORD, after that the ark had rest.”

‭‭1 Chronicles‬ ‭6‬:‭31‬ ‭KJV‬‬

These are the persons David appointed to lead the singing in the house of God after the Ark was placed there.  The Ark had been in Kiriath Jearim when David, with great rejoicing, brought it to Jerusalem and set up the Tabernacle of David, where the Ark was kept till the Temple of Solomon was built where it was shifted.  The unique aspect of the Ark of the Covenant in the Tabernacle of David was, that it was not kept in the Holy of Holies, but was in full view of everyone who came to worship there.  David organised nonstop worship before the Ark of the Covenant.  He was the uninhibited fullness of the power of God in a body. In the Tabernacle of David what existed was a tent to house the Ark of the Covenant, which was the representation of the Presence of God in Israel. Paul refers to our bodies as tents or houses.  James remembered the prophet Amos, “‘After these things I will return to you and raise up the Tabernacle of David that has fallen into ruin. I will restore and rebuild what David experienced so that all of humanity will be able to encounter the LORD including the gentiles whom I have called to be My very Own’, says the LORD.”  Let’s bring a lifestyle of worship to our God and move in His power in our day.  Amen!
