Davids Devotion to the Temple 1 Chronicles 29:1-9
16Do you not know that you are God s temple and that God s Spirit dwells in you?17If anyone destroys God s temple, God will destroy him. For God s temple is holy, and you are that temple. 1 Corinthians 3:16-17 (ESV)
19So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,20built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone, Ephesians 2:19-22 (ESV)
21in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord.22In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit. Ephesians 2:19-22 (ESV)
29 And David the king said to all the assembly, Solomon my son, whom alone God has chosen, is young and inexperienced, and the work is great, for the palace will not be for man but for the Lord God. 1 Chronicles 29:1-9 (ESV)
2So I have provided for the house of my God, so far as I was able, the gold for the things of gold, the silver for the things of silver, and the bronze for the things of bronze, the iron for the things of iron, and wood for the things of wood, besides great quantities of onyx and stones for setting, antimony, colored stones, all sorts of precious stones and marble. 1 Chronicles 29:1-9 (ESV)
3Moreover, in addition to all that I have provided for the holy house, I have a treasure of my own of gold and silver, and because of my devotion to the house of my God I give it to the house of my God:43,000 talents of gold, of the gold of Ophir, and 7,000 talents of refined silver, for overlaying the walls of the house, 1 Chronicles 29:1-9 (ESV)
5and for all the work to be done by craftsmen, gold for the things of gold and silver for the things of silver. Who then will offer willingly, consecrating himself today to the Lord? 6Then the leaders of fathers houses made their freewill offerings, as did also the leaders of the tribes, the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, and the officers over the king s work. 1 Chronicles 29:1-9 (ESV)
7They gave for the service of the house of God 5,000 talents and 10,000 darics of gold, 10,000 talents of silver, 18,000 talents of bronze and 100,000 talents of iron.8And whoever had precious stones gave them to the treasury of the house of the Lord, in the care of Jehiel the Gershonite. 1 Chronicles 29:1-9 (ESV)
9Then the people rejoiced because they had given willingly, for with a whole heart they had offered freely to the Lord. David the king also rejoiced greatly. 1 Chronicles 29:1-9 (ESV)

5For David said, Solomon my son is young and inexperienced, and the house that is to be built for the Lord must be exceedingly magnificent, of fame and glory throughout all lands. I will therefore make preparation for it. So David provided materials in great quantity before his death. 1 Chronicles 22:5 (ESV)
2The scribes and the Pharisees sit on Moses seat,3so do and observe whatever they tell you, but not the works they do. For they preach, but do not practice.4They tie up heavy burdens, hard to bear, and lay them on people s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to move them with their finger. Matthew 22:2-4 (ESV)
Davids Devotion Eased the burden of his fellow workers 1 Chr 29:2
8For we do not want you to be unaware, brothers, of the affliction we experienced in Asia. For we were so utterly burdened beyond our strength that we despaired of life itself.9Indeed, we felt that we had received the sentence of death. But that was to make us rely not on ourselves but on God who raises the dead. 2 Corinthians 1:8-11 (ESV)
10He delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us. On him we have set our hope that he will deliver us again.11 You also must help us by prayer, so that many will give thanks on our behalf for the blessing granted us through the prayers of many. 2 Corinthians 1:8-11 (ESV)

14With great pains I have provided for the house of the Lord 100,000 talents of gold, a million talents of silver, and bronze and iron beyond weighing, for there is so much of it; timber and stone, too, I have provided. To these you must add. 1 Chronicles 22:14 (ESV)
24But the king said to Araunah, No, but I will buy it from you for a price. I will not offer burnt offerings to the Lord my God that cost me nothing. So David bought the threshing floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver. 2 Samuel 24:19 (ESV)
So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy,2complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. Philippians 2:1-4 (ESV)
3Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves.4Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. Philippians 2:1-4 (ESV)
Give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you. Luke 6:38 (ESV)
16By this we know love, that he laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.17But if anyone has the world s goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God s love abide in him?18Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth. 1 John 3:16-18 (ESV)

2Then King David rose to his feet and said: Hear me, my brothers and my people. I had it in my heart to build a house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the Lord and for the footstool of our God, and I made preparations for building.3But God said to me, You may not build a house for my name, for you are a man of war and have shed blood. 1 Chronicles 28:2-5 (ESV)
4Yet the Lord God of Israel chose me from all my father s house to be king over Israel forever. For he chose Judah as leader, and in the house of Judah my father s house, and among my father s sons he took pleasure in me to make me king over all Israel.5And of all my sons (for the Lord has given me many sons) he has chosen Solomon my son to sit on the throne of the kingdom of the Lord over Israel. 1 Chronicles 28:2-5 (ESV)
