All the leaders and the mighty men, and also all the sons of King David, submitted themselves to King Solomon.  1 Chronicles 29.24

There is nothing better than being in peace with the Lord God. Whoever does the will of the Omnipotent learns to enjoy all the good things that He created. For these people, all is well. They happily live their lives without knowing about the pains that other people complain so much. What happens is that they enjoy communion with the Most High; therefore, the wrath of the enemy cannot reach them.

Even the enemies stay in peace with the servants of God. When the devil prepares a trap for them, the Lord puts His hand inside of it and does not allow it to work. If anyone asks the devil to attack a child of God, the enemy retreats and does not attack, for He who protects you is stronger and will not allow the enemy do any evil to His children. God is always our protection.

King Solomon experienced the goodness of the Lord. Among the sons of David, he was chosen to succeed his father as the king. If it were not for the divine blessing, he could have been rejected by others who pleaded the throne. However, it was a widespread acclamation. Thus, he was able to develop his kingship without any threat. When a person is in a good relationship with the Most High, everything works out great for him.

In those days, there were many princes in Israel. These people were prepared by David to accomplish important missions in the kingdom. All of them saw that the hand of God was upon Solomon, so they accepted him as monarch and collaborated with him. God’s grace upon your life will make you someone special in all senses. There is no way how the enemy can bother those who are in a good relationship with the Lord.

The great – the people who are distinguished – also saw that the son of David fit perfectly in the place where he was, and they respected him. Then, the good hand of the Omnipotent guided him in growth, security, and in the fear of the Lord. Solomon wrote three thousand proverbs and 1005 songs. The Almighty made him surpass all the wisdom of the Egyptians. Certainly, it is worth being a servant of God.

At last, the writer of these Scriptures said that all the sons of King David submitted to king Solomon. He was not the firstborn, who by the natural order should have the right to inherit the throne. However, his right was part of the Most High’s will, who convoked him for such a noble mission. You should not stop assuming what God is giving you because of your fear that you will not be recognized, because He will be your Helper.

Everyone submits to God’s elect. The divine grace upon a person makes him be accepted as the chosen one by the Most High. Therefore, do not be timid in assuming what the Omnipotent is giving you. He knows how to shut all the contrary arguments. The time for you to assume your place in Christ is now. Be firm and strong, for the Lord is with you.

In Christ, with love,
