1 Chronicles 13-16 / May 3 (Day 124)

When David became King he said in 1 Chronicles 13:3 “…let us bring the ark of our God back to us, for we have not inquired at it since the days of Saul." David’s priority was to have God first in everything; after the ark was brought to Jerusalem David “left Asaph and his brothers there before the ark of the covenant of the LORD to minister before the ark regularly, as every day's work required (1 Chronicles 16:37).” David knew that as they continued to make God first and seek Him in prayer and worship, the LORD would bless them. David made sure prayer and worship went up continually to give the LORD the glory due His name.
