1 Chronicles 29:1-9
  David secured the people’s backing for Solomon, the next king of Israel.  Wise dad!
  David’s motives: “for the temple is not for man, but for the LORD God.”  1 Chronicles 29:1

  David named his personal offering and the offering which came to the nation of Israel from other sources.  Gold, silver, bronze, iron, wood, precious stones and semi-precious stones. 1 Chronicles 29:2

  David’s generous gifts went to the house of his God, provision for the holy temple. 1 Chronicles 29:3

  David prepared the gold and silver and the workmen who were willing to be consecrated for this great work.  1 Chronicles 29:4-5

  Leaders from all walks of life offered willingly: gold, silver, brass and iron in abundance, even precious stones.  1 Chronicles 29:6-8

  Great rejoicing by the people and David for those offerings were made with a whole heart. 1 Chronicles 29:9

Consider this  ~

Have you ever been involved with such an offering?
I have and it is with great rejoicing of people’s generosity 
for the LORD to be honored and glorified 
through such generous gifts.
