Day 90 | 2 Samuel 4–7 — Who Am I, O Lord? — The Ark, Uzzah, and the Covenant That Outlasts David | Bible in a Year

David finally sits on a united throne, and almost immediately God has to correct what he thinks he's building. A cart, not the prescribed poles, carries the ark, and a man named Uzzah dies reaching out to steady what was never meant to be touched. Holy and good aren't opposites, David learns the hard way, and neither is easy to hold. Then God flips the whole plan — David wanted to build God a house. God is going to build David one instead, a throne with no end.Here we consider holiness, misunderstanding, correction, covenant, and a promise that outlives the man who received it.
