We wrap up 1 Chronicles reflecting on one of David’s final prayers. We examine the seven actions that mark David’s spiritual leadership. We look at interesting questions raised in the book. For example, why are there only seven sons of Jesse listed in David’s genealogy? We also discuss some of the prayers that are mentioned in this book. Scriptures referenced include 1 Chronicles 29:10-19; 1 Chronicles 12:18; 1 Chronicles 2:15; 1 Samuel 16:10, 11; 1 Samuel 17:12; 1 Chronicles 5:1,2; Deuteronomy 21:17; 1 Chronicles 12:8; 1 Chronicles 21:15-30; and 1 Chronicles 5:20.
