David is not mentioned in the scripture until the last part of the
last chapter of Ruth. However, there are 968 verses in the entire
Bible in which David is mentioned. This compared to the 784 verses
that mention Moses, the 230 verses that mention Abraham, and the
159 verses that mention the Apostle Paul, tends to give us an idea
of the significance of David's life. Even Jesus' name is mentioned
in fewer verses (942), although God is mentioned in 3894 verses.
There are also hundreds of verses that do not mention David by name
but refer to him as king. From the sheer fact that David is
mentioned and referred to so many times in the scripture, we can
see that such a study that we hereby embark on is certainly
legitimate. David was the king that excelled beyond all others in
the three Kingdom dimensions God instituted before man was ever
created -- worship, word, and warfare. The Lord had even set an
angelic leader over these three dimensions. Michael was over
warfare; Gabriel was over word, or messages; Lucifer was over
worship. David was the passionate worshipper whose zeal for worship
has never been matched by mortal man. There was no greater warrior
than King David. He never lost a military conflict. David delivered
the Word of the Lord with accuracy and messianic insight. His
messianic prophecies number more than any of the Major Prophets. So
in all three Kingdom dimensions, David excelled above all others.
No wonder that David will be the vice king of all the earth during
the millennium. As amazing as his life was, his failures were
almost unfathomable. David's failures were indeed paramount and
certainly were of a great cost to him and his family. Yet no one
exemplifies true repentance and Godly sorrow more than David.
Again, the study of David's life is worthy of a genuine effort to
look intently at every verse that mentions his name. We believe in
so doing we will clearly see the entire life and legacy of this one
whom God said is "a man after mine own heart" (Acts 13:22).
