Read: 1 Chronicles 29: 26-30
Meditation verse:
“So, he died in a good old age, full of days and riches and honour, and Solomon his son reigned in his place” (1 Chronicles 29:28).
The Bible sums up King David’s life in a few powerful phrases: “he died a good old age, full of days, full of riches, full of honour, and leaving behind a successor. He lived fully, was wealthy in both material and spiritual riches, carried a reputation of honour, and passed on a legacy to the next generation. What a testimony!
Such an ending doesn’t happen by chance — it is the product of intentional living. David’s devotion to God was wholehearted. He worshiped with abandon (2 Samuel 6:14–22), refused to offer God what cost him nothing (2 Samuel 24:24), led with integrity and skill (Psalm 78:72), and was quick to repent when he sinned (Psalm 51:10). No wonder God called him “a man after My own heart” (1 Samuel 13:14).
While you may choose how to live, you cannot choose the consequences your life will produce. Every choice leaves footprints. As you plan for your future, ask: Am I living in such a way that my final chapter will be one of honour, fruitfulness, and godly legacy? If your answer is no, what adjustments can you begin to make from today?
