The Lord revealed many great mysteries and visions to David. David was often referred to as "the One after God’s Heart". This was because he always had his eyes set on God and his decrees, no matter what. David didn’t live a perfect life. There were times He made a great mess of things, but he never allowed this to get in the way of his relationship with God. That is what David had – a relationship with God. He did not see God as a faraway being that He could not communicate with. No. David saw God as one that He could not live without. His heart was always open to hear from God – even if God was expressing His disapproval with Him.David rarely relented in His love for God. It is because of this, He was able to witness many things under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. The book of Psalms wasn’t just a compilation of beautiful songs and poems. They were written by David, through the unction of the Holy Spirit.The Holy Spirit revealed prophetic things to David and he would communicate them through the songs He wrote. There are allusions to Christ in the book of Psalms and the only way David could have received these revelations was through the Spirit of God.David understood what it meant to have a relationship with God. His relationship with God was unique among the men of old. Some of the greater prophets, thought they managed to work great miracles, were unable to develop an intimate relationship with God. They did not view Him the way David did. David relied on God so much, He managed to find a way to celebrate and rejoice of God.David spent so much time with God, even in his last moments on earth, He was under the influence of the Holy Spirit.This is something that should inspire us believers. We are under a much better covenant than David was. The Holy Spirit is readily available for us to commune with. God doesn’t require us to be in any position in order for us to talk to Him. We should hold this to heart and make the most of it, having a heart like David, who was always concerned with the things of God.
