David became a king. He remained a servant. He points us forward to Jesus - "the Servant King" (Graham Kendrick). " ... Jerusalem, the city where I chose to place My Name" (1 Kings 11:36).
Jerusalem is called the Holy City. It's not so much Jerusalem that's
holy. It's the Name of the Lord that's holy - and He has placed His holy
Name in Jerusalem. In Jerusalem, Jesus died for us and rose again for
us. Again, it's not Jerusalem that's holy. It's our Saviour who's holy.
Jerusalem's a special place because Jesus is special. There's no one
like Him. He's our Lord. He's our Saviour.
