REMEMBERING THE REIGN OF KING DAVID
King David’s reign of 40 years over Israel had been marked by the following:-
1. War with the house of Saul.
2. War with hostile neighbouring kingdoms.
3. Two failed attempts to usurp the throne
a) Absalom 2 Samuel 16-18
b) Adonijah 1 Kings 1:1
Solomon knew that he needed to establish the kingdom that his father had entrusted to him. He would need all the Divine help he could get.
“He will judge Your people with righteousness,
And Your poor with justice.”
Psalm 72:2
