God's King Crowned, & Entrenched Enemy Defeated!2 Samuel 5:1-11; 1 Chronicles 11:4-9After seven and one half years, David was finally able to unify the nation of Israel under his rule. At long last—almost twenty years after being secretly anointed as a child to be the future king—David was crowned to rule over all Israel, over all twelve tribes.This was an enemy that they were forced to live with in the heart of the land. They had baffled them for years and now are easily defeated. When Jesus Christ is Savior and on the throne of our life, deeply entrenched habits in our heart and life are put under subjection, overcome, and defeated.What we can't do in our own strength, we can through the strength of the Lord.Our gutters are our weak areas. They may include lust, temper, hate, selfishness, an uncontrolled tongue, etc. God has promised power for victory.No nation and no house can stand if it is divided against itself. Unity is commanded by God, and unity is the driving thrust of this Scripture. David is a type of Christ who must sit on the throne of our lives if we are ever successful.
