Some people die unexpectedly
And their last words are just whatever they happen to be talking
about at the time before that Just random something random,
but David knew he was dying And so he spoke these words as a
deliberate summary of his life And so there's something special
about that now either verse 1 is written by Samuel and These be
the last words of David, and then the last words themselves
don't come until later. And that's a possibility. But this may also be the beginning
of a statement by David that Samuel just recorded. Maybe David
said, these are my last words. I don't know. We're not sure
about that. But either way, even if they're not part of David's
final words themselves, if Samuel wrote them, Picture yourself
writing, these are the last words of this band. That was his friend,
precious to him. And understanding the significance
of that, you know what you're writing about is something special. And so understanding that, he
wrote an amplified introduction of David here. He doesn't just
say, this is what David said. He describes David in four different
ways in this one verse, and that's interesting. These be the last
words of David, but it's David, the son of Jesse. David, the
son of Jesse. Now he starts there, and everybody's
the son of somebody. You could say that I'm Chris,
the son of Elijah. But really what you're saying
here is that there's no distinction. He was just David the son of
somebody, son of a man, another man. So he himself was just a
man. David himself wrote in Psalm
39 five, verily every man at his best state is altogether
vanity. And just David being just somebody's
son reminds us of that. We're all just sinner the son of a sinner Paul began his letters this way
Paul a servant nothing special about us by nature what who we
are as Jesse's son David is characterized just as a shepherd boy that was
he was keeping his father's sheep. It said over over his father's
sheep And we know that that's a picture of our Savior. We'll
talk about that some but That's the job that his father, Jesse,
gave him. You're to keep the sheep. You're
a servant. You're the shepherd boy. But
look at the next title in the scripture. The man who was raised
up on high. Not the man who rose up high,
but the man who was raised up on high. The shepherd boy was raised up
and made to lead, not the kind of sheep that eat grass, but
he was made to lead God's sheep. He was a spiritual shepherd as
well as an earthly shepherd. He was made king of a nation
that God called my people. We know that not all Israelites
were spiritual Israel, but the picture is very clear. God's
true spiritual sheep with few exceptions were contained within
that earthly nation And so he was made a shepherd of God's
people By God, and that's that's high Think of the great lowliness
from which he came and the great height to which he was raised
think of the difference the span there and We're introduced to
David in the scriptures as the one anointed by God, chosen by
God, but he was utterly rejected of men. Even his own father did
not consider him to be even a candidate for God's blessing. He was left
out into the field. And Jesse brought all of his
impressive, you know, sons in there and said, here's your pick,
take your pick. And they didn't even call David
in there. That's pretty low. Your own father doesn't think
there's much to you. That's pretty low. Then we have David in another
character in the story of his life after that and we'll talk
about that later But at the time when David began to greatly display
the fact that God had anointed him and we read there in that
story of his anointing in 1st Samuel 16 that the Spirit of
God was upon him from that moment on That's a significant Sentence
right there When God told Samuel, he's my king, anoint him, it
says the spirit of God was upon him from that moment on. All
right, well, when he first began to really display that was when
he came to the front lines of the battle with the Philistines,
where Goliath was taunting the people of God. Do you remember
how David was received there? We're talking about how low he
came from right now. I think I've turned this up a
little bit too loud again. It seemed like it was too low there
at first, but maybe I'll get it right. But when he came to the front
lines, it says the battle, they were all yelling for the battle.
And then Goliath had come out and began to taunt them. And
they, of course, were all afraid of him. But David's motives were
questioned why he even came there when he began to say, who is
this uncircumcised Philistine that he should defy the armies
of the living God? Who does he think he is? Nobody
else was saying that. But David said that. But when
he did, his oldest brother Eliab said, I know the pride and the
naughtiness of thine heart. He said, you've just come down
here to see the battle, and you're neglecting your real job. You
got bored watching those sheep, and you want to go come see some
excitement, some blood, or something. Who's watching those sheep that
you're supposed to be taking care of? And of course, that
wasn't true. His father, Jesse, had sent him
down there with food for his idiot brothers that were ungrateful
and complaining about him. But when David said a little
bit after that, that he would fight Goliath, he said, don't
worry about it. I'll go handle this. Saul said, you're not able
to go against him. You see what we're talking about?
He came from below. He just David the son of Jesse.
That's how everybody saw him. And David saw himself that way.
I'm just the son of Jesse. After he defeated Goliath and
cut his head off, he went back and kept the sheep again. That's
who he was. But the spirit of God was on
him though. And he said, I'll go take care of this Philistine
real quick. And Saul said, you're not able to go against this Philistine
to fight him. You are just a youth and he's
been a warrior from his youth. Even killing people before you
were born. But we know what happened that
day. And by the time these last words of David are written in
our text here, This despised shepherd boy had become the most
feared and powerful man on the earth. First Chronicles 14, 17,
I've read this to you before. The fame of David went out into
all lands and the Lord brought the fear of all nations, a fear
of him upon all nations. Everybody knew who he was and
they were afraid of him. And as we saw in the previous
chapter, 1 Samuel 22, in that Psalm that David wrote, He wrote,
they hear and they bow. And that's who he was. And it's
interesting, I thought about this, like the fishermen in the
New Testament, that the Lord called and said to them, I'm
gonna make you fishers of men. He called fishermen and said,
I've got some fishing for you today. It's not gonna be like
this. And the Lord anointed a shepherd
boy and made him shepherd of the sheep of God. And look at
the next title of David here, the anointed of the God of Jacob,
the anointed one. We've talked about that, how
that this is explanatory here really of the contrast in the
first two, he's just the son of Jesse, he's just a shepherd
boy and everybody saw him that way. You can't fight this giant,
you're just a boy. You're not, surely you're not
God's anointed. Look at you compared to everybody
else. You're nobody. There's nothing to recommend
you. There's nothing impressive about you. But also, he was raised
up on high by God. God chose him and the spirit
of God was upon him. And it was all up from there.
But David never forgot who he was, the son of Jesse. but raised
up on high of God. And here, listen, this explains
the difference between the low and the high in David's life. He was anointed of God. And again,
I want to stress this 1 Samuel 16, 13 is where it says it. Then
Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the midst of
his brethren. And the spirit of the Lord came
upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up and went to
Ramah, the spirit of the Lord from that day forward, that explains
the low. But when God finds you and does
something for you, everything changes. Think about this, what
was it that about David himself that characterized the spirit
of the Lord being on him? Now God clearly worked everything
for his good. We've seen his life from start
to finish as recorded in the books of Samuel. And so we saw
how God worked things. He defeated the council of Ahithophel. God had conspired to defeat and
it worked in David's favor and all through he delivered Saul
right into his hand a couple of times. And all through his
life God worked for him. But what was it about David that
would indicate If you were just another one in Israel and you
were observing, what would you notice about David maybe that
would indicate to you that the Spirit of God was on him? Well, again, that day that it
began to be displayed that that was the case, listen to the words
that David spoke on that day when they were disparaging him discouraging
him, he said this, thy servant slew both the lion and the bear,
and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing
that he hath defied the armies of the living God. Not seeing
that I'm better than him, that I'm more skilled, and it wasn't
true, it would have been a lie if he would have said that. But
he said the reason this is not gonna end well for Goliath is
because he's defied the armies of the living God. And David said, moreover, the
Lord that delivered me out of the paw of the lion and out of
the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of
this Philistine. And Saul said unto David, go.
Nobody else was saying that. Who are you going to send? Somebody
that don't want to go or somebody that wants to go? And the Lord be with you. He
was, and it didn't have anything to do with Saul. Nothing wrong
with saying that. He didn't have anything to do.
The Lord was already with him or he wouldn't have been able
to say what he said. And listen, it's one thing to say that to
Saul. You're in the home camp. You're
on your own turf. You're talking to your fellow
army buddies. But listen to what David said
to Goliath. Then said David to the Philistine
in verse 45 of 1 Samuel 17, you come to me with a sword and with
a spear and with a shield, but I come to you in the name of
the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel whom thou
hast defied. This day will the Lord deliver
you into my hand and I will smite thee and take thine head from
thee and I will give the carcasses of the host of the Philistines
this day under the fowls of the air. and to the wild beasts of
the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God
in Israel." Not that they might brag on me or think anything
of me, I'm gonna go back and keep the sheep. He didn't say
that at the time, but that's what his intention was, and that's
what he did. But everybody's gonna know who
God is. And all this assembly shall know how he does things
too. That the Lord saveth not with
sword and spear, For the battle is the Lord's,
and he will give you into our hands. So what was it about David
that showed that the Spirit of God was upon him? Certainly courage,
but why was he so courageous? We've got to get to the root
of this, you see. Why was he so courageous? Well, it's clear that he just
simply believed God. He believed that God would save
him. Remember Hebrews 11, by faith
Moses chose, by faith Enoch walked, by faith Abraham believed, by
faith Noah moved with fear, by faith, by faith David said, don't
worry about it, I'm gonna go take care of it. Because he has defied the armies
of the living God and everybody's gonna know who God is and how
he does things. Every exploit recounted in the
book of Hebrews chapter 11 is preceded by those two words,
by faith, by faith. By grace are you saved through
faith. And that's not of yourself, it's
the gift of God. It's the gift of God, not of
works, lest any man should boast. And so we see that here that
David, by grace, God raised him up on high and God anointed him.
God chose him. Why did God choose him? Because
he wanted to. He chose him in spite of. It was by grace through faith.
David believed God. And he was jealous for the glory
of God. By faith. The word anointed there, the
anointed of the God of Jacob, and whenever he's called the
God of Jacob, it's always a reminder that he's the God of wretches.
Jacob was a worm, by God's own estimation. Thou worm, Jacob. Fear not, thou worm, Jacob. I'm fine with God calling me
a worm, as long as God Almighty says to me, you've got nothing
to be afraid of. It's just the truth, isn't it?
It's the truth that I'm a worm. And it's the truth that if God's
for me, nobody can be against me. The word anointed means Messiah. That's who David was. He was
the savior of Israel in an earthly sense now. And the word Christ
in the New Testament means anointed. So we see what this is now. We
see that David pictures the greater David, David's son, but David's
Lord. In so many beautiful and powerful
ways, he pictured him, and this is one of them, anointed by God
as king, brought from lowly estate and raised to power. Our Lord
made himself of no reputation and took upon him the form of
a servant. And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled
himself. There was no beauty about him
that we should desire him. They said, can any good thing
come out of Nazareth? He was nobody from nowhere as
far as this world was concerned. He was called a drunk, a glutton,
a servant of the devil. They said, you cast out devils
by the main devil. But he was raised to the throne
of glory by his father. as a man. He had to leave the throne of
glory in order to be raised to the throne of glory. But you
understand it's as a man, it's as me, that he was raised up
on high and anointed. God has also highly exalted him
and given him a name which is above every name. Our Lord Jesus
Christ is both our shepherd and our king. He's called David in
the scripture several times when it's obvious that it's not referring To the David that were that wrote
this The human instrument that wrote it the Lord Jesus Christ
was a carpenter as the son of Joseph I Love the way the Lord
does things he he called some fishermen and said I'm gonna
make you fishermen. I He called a shepherd boy and said, I'm
gonna make you shepherd. The Lord Jesus Christ himself as
the son of Joseph was a carpenter. I suspect he built houses and
furniture and things like all carpenters do. He built things
out of wood. But in Matthew 16, 18, he said,
upon this rock will I build my church and the gates of hell
will not prevail against it. the sweet psalmist of Israel. I said a while ago that we see
David in another character in his story in scripture, after
he is introduced as the one keeping his father's sheep, but chosen
of God, anointed of God. And here is that in 1 Samuel
16. Let's turn over there, 1 Samuel
16. David Was blessed in another
way the Spirit of God came upon him and look look at what happened
This is a little less conspicuous than going out on the battlefield
and bringing down a giant But the Spirit of God was already
upon him before this And this is beautiful first 14 of first
Samuel 16 but the Spirit of the Lord departed from Saul and and
this is right after it says that he was with David, the spirit
of the Lord came upon David, but he departed from Saul and
an evil spirit from the Lord troubled him. And Saul's servant
said unto him, behold, now an evil spirit from God troubleth
thee. Let our Lord now command thy servants which are before
thee to seek out a man who is a cunning player on an harp.
And it shall come to pass when the evil spirit from God is upon
thee, that he shall play with his hand and thou shalt be well.
And Saul said unto his servants, provide me now a man that can
play well, and bring him to me. And all of this, of course, was
to ingratiate David to Saul, so David could be, though not
to reign for some time, he's gonna be right in the palace,
right in the room of the king, already anointed king by God,
and he's gonna see firsthand all of the, from the inside,
what that's all about. And what a trial for him, though,
to know that he was anointed king, and here's the throne,
here's the throne room. And I'm in here, and I'm not
king. It's gonna be a long time before he was. Bring him to me, verse 18. Then
answered one of the servants and said, behold, I have seen
a son of Jesse, the Bethlehemite, that is cunning and playing,
and a mighty, valiant man, a man of war, and prudent in matters,
and a comely person, and the Lord is with him. Wherefore Saul
sent messengers unto Jesse and said, send me David thy son,
which is with the sheep. Now it seems like some time had
passed maybe between the time that David was anointed and this,
because the way these folks are describing David, he's a pretty
impressive guy, but in Jesse's own house, none of his brothers
were impressed with him. Maybe it was just in comparison
with his brothers that he was unimpressive. But he's a man
of war. He's a comely person. He's prudent
in matters. His family wasn't treating him
like that, were they? Wherefore Saul sent messengers,
verse 19, and said, Send me David thy son, which is with the sheep.
And Jesse took an ass laden with bread, and a bottle of wine,
and a kid, and sent them by David his son unto Saul. And David
came to Saul and stood before him. And he loved him greatly,
and he became his armor-bearer. And Saul sent to Jesse, saying,
Let David, I pray thee, stand before me. For he hath found
favor in my sight. And it came to pass, when the
evil spirit from God was upon Saul, that David took an harp
and played with his hand. And so Saul was refreshed. and was well, and the evil spirit
departed from him, the sweet psalmist
of Israel. David played, and evil spirits
were driven from Saul. And years later, David would
play on a harp and sing these psalms
that we have in the word of God. Most of them And what can drive
away any evil thoughts or feelings from God's sheep, like these
beautiful, incomparable songs of God, as they were put to paper
by the sweet psalmist, and as they play in our hearts
by the Spirit himself, that was upon David and in us. Listen to this, I thought of
some of my favorite Psalms. Psalm 139, verse one. O Lord,
thou hast searched me and known me. Thou knowest my down-sitting
and my uprising. Thou understandest my thought
afar off. Thou compassest my path and my
lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways. He knows me
inside out. There's not a word in my tongue. Haven't even spoken
it yet. Lo, O Lord, thou knowest it altogether,
and thou hast beset me behind and before and laid thine hand
on me. Such knowledge is too wonderful
for me, it is high. I cannot attain unto it. Whither
shall I go from thy spirit? How can I even mess this up?
How can I stray far enough? that God won't be able to help
me. If I ascend up into heaven, there
you are. If I make my bed in hell, behold,
there you are. If I take the wings of the morning
and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, even there shall
thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me. the sweet psalm I stroked that
Psalm 51 5 behold I was shapen in iniquity and in sin did my
mother conceive me I've been a sinner since before I was even
born a sinner behold thou desires truth in the inward parts and
in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom and here's
David's cry being a sinner wretched, shapen in iniquity, conceived
in sinfulness. Here's his cry, purge me with
hyssop. It was the hyssop that was dipped in the blood and splashed
on the mercy seat on the day of atonement. Purge me with hyssop and I shall
be clean. Wash me and I shall be whiter
than snow. Make me to hear joy and gladness
that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice. Hide thy
face from my sins and blot out all my iniquities. All of them. The Lord's able
to do that. The Lord Jesus Christ is the
greater David, as we've said. He's David's son, but also David's
Lord. And he is the epitome of all
these titles given to the lesser David. the son of Jesse we talked
about what that denotes, it just denotes the fact that he was
just another man just another man, unto us a child is born unto us a son is given, they
called him Joseph's son but he wasn't was he, not really that's what they called him,
we're going to read that in John 6.42, I'll just read you that
but he'll grow up as a tender plant and as a root out of a
dry ground. No beauty. He called himself the son of
man. David said, I'm the son of Jesse. The Lord of glory said,
I'm the son of man. They said in John 6, 42, is not
this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know?
How is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven? He's
nobody, he's not anybody, we know his mother and father, he's
a carpenter. He's from Nazareth, nobody good
comes from Nazareth. But we know why our Lord had
to grow up as a tender plant. We know why he was born of a
woman. We know why he was made under the law. Listen, Galatians
4.4, but when the fullness of time was come, God sent forth
his son, made of a woman, made under the law to redeem them
that were under the law. There's no other way he can do
that. He's got to be one of us. He's got to be chosen from among
the people to be our priest. made under the law that we might
receive, that he might redeem those that were under the law,
that we might receive the adoption of sons. He's God's son, and
we are adopted sons because he became us. Hebrews 2.14, for
as much then as the children, God's children, are partakers
of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same.
the son of Joseph, in an earthly sense, though not biologically
or spiritually, that through death he might destroy him that
had the power of death, that is the devil. He's got to die
as a man, just somebody's son. But somebody else's son too.
But he's gotta be the son of man. and deliver them who through
fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage."
Again, the reason he did it, the reason he became the son
of, just another man in one sense. He was born exactly like I was
born. He thirsted just like I thirsted. He walked in the same dirt that
we did. Why? To save them. to save them
who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to
bondage. For verily, he took not on him the nature of angels."
Think of the grace of this. If he was gonna save the angels,
the third part of the angels of heaven fell when Lucifer did. If he was gonna save them, he
would have to take on their nature and die in their stead. Offer himself for them. But he
took not on him the nature of angels, but he took upon him
the seed of Abraham, wherefore in all things it behooved him
to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and
faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation
for the sins of the people. And so as David was the lowly
son of Jesse, the Lord Jesus Christ, made himself of no reputation. Now we've already spoken of him
as the man raised up on high. David was raised up by God on
high, but have you ever thought much about the fact that there's
a man on the throne of the universe tonight? A human being sits on
the throne of God tonight. Matthew 22, 41, while the Pharisees
were gathered together, Jesus asked them saying, what think
ye of Christ? Whose son is he? They say unto him, the son of
David. They knew the scriptures, they knew that God's anointed
was gonna be of the lineage of David. He saith unto them, how
then does David in spirit call him Lord? saying the Lord said
unto my Lord sit thou on my right hand till I make thine enemies
thy footstool he's the son of David that's true just like David
was the son of Jesse the same way natural lineage and birth
and heritage but David said he's my Lord Sit thou on my right hand till
I make all your enemies your footstool. That's what God did
for David, but see, the son of David's enemies are all the spiritual enemies
in high and wicked places, and they are my enemies too. And
he makes them his footstool. If David then call him Lord,
how is he his son? How does that make any sense?
And no man was able to answer him a word, neither dared any
man from that day forth ask him any more questions. So here's a man that was of the
lineage of David, who clearly displayed himself
as the son of God, David's Lord, and they would not recognize
him. Well, the third title of David
was this, the anointed of the God of Jacob. Well, Christ is
the anointed. He's the Messiah. He is the Christ
of God. Simon Peter preached in Acts
2.34, for David is not ascended into the heavens. He's talking
about what David said in the Psalms. and talking about God
raising him up. But he said, David can't be talking
about himself. That's what he's saying there
in Acts 2.34. David can't be talking to himself. For he saith,
the Lord said unto my Lord, sit thou on my right hand until I
make thine enemies thy footstool. But David's not sitting on the
throne and has enemies under his feet. Now he's gone, he's
dead. Therefore, let all the house
of Israel know assuredly that God hath made that same Jesus
whom you have crucified, both Lord and Christ." Anointed, the
anointed of the God of Jacob. John 6 and verse 66, from that,
many of his disciples went back and walked no more with him.
And then said, Jesus under the 12, will you also go away? And
then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? Thou
hast the words of eternal life. And we believe and are sure that
thou art that Christ. That word is anointed. You are
that anointed one. The son of the living God. And then the sweet psalmist of
Israel. How does that apply to the Lord
Jesus Christ? Think about what David was doing
when he wrote the Psalms. He wrote the Psalms and sang
them out of praise unto God. And we see that in the language
of scripture concerning the Savior, and we'll look at that. But the
sweet, that word sweet means lovely, delightful, pleasant,
and beautiful. Singer of Israel. The word psalmist
is psalm, and it's various different, you know, and here it's the noun
form, the psalmist. But listen, Job or Elihu, and
you remember in the book of Job, Elihu was the one who spoke for
God. Job's other friends, God said,
they haven't spoken that which is right concerning me. But Elihu
did. Elihu came and spoke, and then
God came after Elihu did and said many of the same things
Elihu had said, only with the power of God's own voice. But
the man who spoke for God himself in the book of Job refers to
him as God my maker Who giveth songs in the night? Now who is God my maker? You
know that God has various offices and in his three persons of the
Godhead he He holds different offices Well, who is God my maker? without Christ was anything made
that was made. John 1, 3. All things were made
by Him who is called the Word, who was made flesh and dwelt
among us. He made everything. And there wasn't anything made
without Him. So God, my maker, is Christ. And He gives songs
in the night. He's the one, if you have a song,
a true song, in praise to God and adoration and glory unto
Him, you got it from the psalmist. David the sweet psalmist wrote
in one of those psalms that he wrote, listen, in Psalm 119.54,
thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage. Thy statutes have been my songs. That's interesting, isn't it?
And ironic because David songs are his statutes too. He said,
your word has been my songs. And God made it so that David's
songs are his word. The book of Psalms was inspired
by God himself. So both are true. But so the
Psalms, he's the sweet psalmist, but he wrote, what did he write?
The Psalms. But who else, who really wrote
the Psalms? Christ is the sweet psalmist
of Israel. We may be psalmists of one degree
of sweetness or another. Some of us are better singers
than others. And I'm not one of the better ones. But what
is it that we sing? We all sing the same song, in
a sense, don't we? Not the same exact words all
the time. But what's our song? The gospel.
We sing what we preach. And what is the gospel? It's
Christ himself. So not only is he the one that
gave us the song, and his word is our song, but he is the song
that we sing. We sing of him. And nobody can sing like him.
Listen to this, Hebrews 2.10, for it became him for whom are
all things and by whom are all things. Bringing many sons unto
glory to make the captain of their salvation perfect through
sufferings Clearly referring to the Lord
Jesus Christ He is the captain of our salvation. He is the perfect
flawless captain of our salvation through his sufferings and For
both he that sanctifies, the Lord Jesus, and they who are
sanctified are all of one. For which cause he is not ashamed
to call them brethren, saying, now who's saying what I'm fixing
to say? Christ is, clearly talking about Christ. He's not ashamed
to call them brethren, saying, I will declare thy name unto
my brethren, speaking to the father. In the midst of the church
will I sing praise unto thee. we can't sing like he can by his grace we sing the same
song we preach what he preached and we sing what he sang what
he sings so you understand what a psalm is, it's an expression
a gospel expression of praise unto God the Lord just defined
it, I will sing what? he could have said I will sing
songs unto thee but he said I will sing praise unto thee because
that's what a psalm is in the spiritual it's praise unto God
and who honored and praised and glorified God like his son so
he is the sweet psalmist of his people he gives us our song he
is our song he's the subject of our song and he sings with
us glory unto God just as David
was shepherd Christ is the shepherd and bishop of our souls just
as David was king and Christ is the king of kings and Lord
of Lords there is a sweeter psalmist in Israel than David Was and
