# How David Reacted

Key Passage: 2 Samuel 6:6-11
Date: June 7, 2024

David, of course, was Israel probably its greatest king. His name is mentioned more in the Bible than any other name at all—the Bible. It’s amazing. And what a great man. We kind of studied from the beginning when Samuel came and anointed him to be king. It took years before he was king. And we’re at this point here. He’s king. He’s king of all Israel, not just Judah, but all Israel. He just moved the capital of Israel to Jerusalem. All right. God’s blessing him. Oh, wait, we’ll get these men in here. We’ll get them all. There you go. We’ll get everybody in here. Get going here. That way we’ve got everybody on board.

He just moved that capital. God was really blessing him. And so he decided to go and get the Ark of God, the Ark of the Covenant. And it unfortunately was in the enemy’s camp. So when he got it, if you remember, a couple weeks ago, we talked that one Wednesday how he went and got it with a new cart. Now, the only other people had ever seen the Bible carried on a new cart was the Philistines. And God had already told David, you’re not supposed to carry it like that. And he’d already given us very specific directions. The Levites were to carry it. In fact, one family of the Levites, the Kohathites, were to carry it. There’s a pole on each side to go through rings, and they carried it on their shoulders and so on. But they decided to do it the world’s way.

And you remember that. They had it on that new cart. And it came to the threshing floor—I think it was Nacon’s. We’ll read in just a second here, threshing floor. And when they did, I thought, I wonder if his threshing floor was just a mess. Maybe it’s one of those guys never cleaned up after himself. I don’t know. But the new cart kind of was there, and it shook. And this guy Uzzah put his hand out to steady it. You’ve heard the story. And God smote him.

Now, we’re going to look at a little bit tonight just how David reacted to that. I want to try to glean and learn from that tonight: how David reacted to that. Are you wanting some God to speak to your heart tonight? You’re there? Good, good, good. That’s why we’re at church. I’m glad you got that. That’s wonderful. Let’s stand if you would, please. Second Samuel chapter number six. We’re going to start verse number six. Second Samuel chapter number six.

And verse number six: “And when they came to Nacon’s threshing floor, Uzzah put forth his hand to the ark of God and took hold of it, for the oxen shook it, and the anger of the Lord was kindled against Uzzah. And God smote him there for his error, and there he died before the ark of God. And David was displeased because the Lord had made a breach upon Uzzah. And he called the name of the place Perez-Uzzah to this day. And David was afraid of the Lord that day and said, ‘How shall the ark of the Lord come to me?’ So David would not remove the ark of the Lord into the city of David, but David carried it aside into the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite. The ark of the Lord continued in the house of Obed-Edom for three months. And the Lord blessed Obed-Edom and all his household.”

It seems that David did not agree with God’s choice, his decision, despite Uzzah. He was killed. David was not very pleased with that—verse number eight right there. We just read it: “And David was displeased because the Lord had made a breach upon Uzzah.” If you will, I believe David really didn’t agree with the decision that God made.

Now hang with me a little bit here at the beginning. There are times—don’t judge me, we’re awful bad on this one here—but there are times that I’ve disagreed with God. Can I be honest with a couple things? Matthew chapter number 20, there’s this parable and another story. And I like it that has given a lot of hope and reassurance to people that got saved later on in life, but I don’t see it. Now hang with me, all right?

There’s this guy that goes out real early, probably 6 a.m., and he agreed with the guy that he had paid him a denarius. Now that’s not a penny in our time. We’ll just say a hundred bucks is a day’s wage. And he works for 12 hours, he works to 6 p.m. Now there’s another guy that comes along at 9 a.m. and he works to 6 p.m. Another guy that comes along at noon, he works to 6 p.m. Another guy that comes along at 3 p.m., comes at 5 p.m. He works one hour, and at the end, he pays them all the same wage. Y’all read that. I like it that it brings people comfort, but I’ll just be honest with you, to me, it seems a little unfair. Now, it’s his money. He has the right to do it, and he says that, but it just seemed like the guy said, “Hey, you work a little bit longer, I’m going to give a little more money.” That’s the way I see it. Now, I’m just being honest with you here, right? There’s just me. There’s just me. Don’t judge too quickly.

But I think Moses should have been able to go into the Promised Land, at least a little bit. He led two or three million of those complaining, moaning, groaning Jewish people. He put up with a lot. That’s just me. I’m just—sometimes I have my own thoughts. But if a lady marries a guy that just won’t work and doesn’t commit adultery, but he’s just a lazy bum and she’s got to do everything and he’s a little bit of a bully—if I had my opinion, I’d say, “Hey, get that fellow out of there,” you know. I’m just talking about me here.

Hang with me for just a second here. I don’t always understand why God allows injustice to go on. I see sometimes people that I think, “Wow, it seems like they’ve just got one problem after another problem after another problem.” Sometimes it doesn’t seem fair. Just, man, every time they get their head above water, boom, something happens. I’m just talking about me.

I think of a missionary. He’s a good guy. I know him fairly well. He was on deputation raising money to go to a foreign field and tell people about Jesus Christ. He was in a car accident and died on deputation.

I’m just kind of sharing sometimes that I… So let me just for a little bit talk to you about what do you do when you disagree with God? What do you do when you disagree with God? We’re going to try to follow David here a little bit and find out what David did. David, I believe, disagreed with the decision. God said, “Hey, you put your hand out, it’s over. You know, you’re not supposed to look at it. You went ahead and touched it. We’re not having it.” And David was displeased with that decision. Let’s find out what David did. How did he handle the disagreement?

Look in verse number nine, if you will. Second Samuel 6, look in verse number nine: “And David was afraid of the Lord that day.” Can I just say the first thing that I and you ought to do when we disagree with God? We ought to have a fear of God.

Who in the world is little peon Pastor Paul compared to an almighty God? My little bit. I mean, I’ve lived 51 years and forgotten most of it, and I can see a little bit of today. I can’t even look into tomorrow. And God inhabits eternity. He can see it all, and just boom, all at one time. And who am I, if you will, to think I know better than God? Now, I’m not saying it’s a sin to have your own thoughts and opinions, but David had a fear. He feared the Lord.

You know, we have a narrow sense of justice, based probably on our upbringing, the society around us, by hopefully you’ve got the Bible in you. That’s the best thing to give you a sense of justice. But you know the Bible says about God, Deuteronomy 32:4, “He is a rock. His work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.” He’s always right.

There’s going to be times if you live in this world, you’re going to think, “Had I just disagree a little bit with what just happened there.” And listen, friend, the first thing is, don’t lose your fear of God. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. David had a fear of the Lord.

You know most atheists—and I wouldn’t say all—but the typical atheist that says there’s no God, there’s been a trauma in their life that they don’t agree with God about. More often than not, if you get to know them very close, you’ll find out something happened, and they disagree with God about that thing. And their way of handling it is not in the fear of the Lord. Their way of handling it is to deny there is a God.

I think about Smyrna years ago, and there was a very likable man. I enjoyed talking about the Lord. I remember right at an overall zone—most men have overalls on are nice guys, you know. I like the guy. But he said at the beginning he was an atheist, and I was really shocked. And he was kind enough to let me get to talk, let me get to know him a little bit. And he was a kinder man for a typical atheist. And he let me talk. And come to find out his 13-year-old granddaughter had died. And he just had an issue with that. And he couldn’t deal with it the right way. So he dealt with it by saying, “I just don’t believe there’s a God.”

And you’re going to have times you disagree with God. What do you do? David, I don’t believe he agreed with the decision God made, but David still had a fear of the Lord. A reverence or respect, an awareness of his presence in your life that he can bless you or just boom, snap us up, and boom, it’s all over for you. The fear of the Lord. And there’ll be times that we all have that. Don’t lose—let me say this—let the fear of God make you careful with your tongue during those moments. You just don’t agree, and you have a battle going on. “I don’t know why God allowed this,” and “I don’t understand this.” Let the fear of God keep your tongue wise.

By the way, here’s the thing: later on, yes, you can go to the Lord and confess it, saying, “Get that thing right with God,” but it may be some little ears that heard what you said, and you hurt them for the Lord Jesus Christ for all the rest of their lives. Those are vital times. And if I don’t have the fear of the Lord, I make some dumb decisions that might affect my spouse, might affect my kids and my grandkids. And it’s so crucial during that time we keep a little fear of God in us. David did. It’s so easy there in those moments to go into sin. It’s easy there are those times to rebel. I think of a lady—praise the Lord, she’s right with God now—but during the time of rebellion, she went into what we would call deep sin. And the fear of the Lord—it’ll say, “Hey, I don’t want the Lord to take me out back into the woodshed and give me a good old-fashioned whooping.” I don’t want that, you know. So keep, keep strong.

David, I don’t believe he agreed with what happened. He was disappointed. He didn’t like it. He disagreed. And yet he had the fear of the Lord. And David, he’s a flawed man just like all the rest of us. But David seemed like he would be corrected by God and come out. Oh, several different times he’s still king. Still had the hand of God on him. Saul and others didn’t turn out like that. It seemed like he handled it pretty good.

What happened here with this same situation? Well, he had a fear of God. My mind goes to Job. He’s a classic in the Bible. He’s the Cadillac of illustrations of going through rough times—old Job, you know. And you know the story of Job. He lost his 10 kids (temporary loss), and then his health and finances and even his wife at a time of grieving and all that. Let me read for you just two passages real quickly. I’ll just read them for you. Job 1:22: “In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.” Job 2:10: “And in all this did not Job sin with his lips. I fear the Lord.” And be so very, very careful. Those idle words—God hears those things, and I’ll be held accountable for those things.

So when I disagree, what do I do? I think there’s probably—to be honest—all of us have times where you’re like, “Whoa, I don’t get this.” Don’t lose your fear of God. Don’t lose your fear of God.

Look at the second thing you do. Let’s look and see what David did here. Look back, if you will, to verse number 12. Verse number 12. You all there? When you find that, would you say amen? Good deal. Look at verse number 12: “And it was told King David saying, ‘The Lord had blessed the house of Obed-Edom and all that pertained to him because of the ark of God.’” So David—David said, “Man, God’s blessing him and everything he’s got. I’m going to go get it; I need those blessings.” That’s what’s going on here. Three months have been going on. So David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed-Edom into the City of David with gladness.

Watch this: “And it was so that when they that bare the ark of the Lord had gone six paces, he sacrificed oxen and fatlings.” Look, if you will, look over in First Chronicles chapter number 15. Kind of like a parallel scripture; the same thing is going on there. It gives a little different angle on it. First Chronicles chapter number 15. And look at verse number 12. First Chronicles 15, and look at verse number 12, if you would there. First Chronicle chapter 15, look at verse 12: “And said to them, ‘Ye are the chief of the fathers of the Levites: sanctify yourselves, both ye and your brethren, that ye may bring up the ark of the Lord God of Israel unto the place that I had prepared for him.’”

Watch this: “For because he did it not at the first, the Lord our God made a breach upon us, for that we sought him not after the due order.” That’s three months later. Can I tell you what’s going on? David’s saying, “You’re right, I’m wrong.” When I disagree with God about Matthew 20 in that parable about the guy that worked at 5, hey, God’s right, I’m wrong. When I disagree with God about Moses going to the Promised Land, hey, He’s right, I’m wrong. When I disagree with God about all these things I mention—I can’t remember them all—but all these things that mention about a lady in marriage creeping and all that, hey, I’m wrong and He’s right.

What do you do when you disagree with God? Keep your fear of God, and number two, just own up to it. He’s right every single time, and I’m wrong. You trust Him. He’s always right, whether I understand it, whether I get it or I don’t get it. He’s right; I’m wrong.

I like it that David learned from his mistake. David could have gone on his own way and said, “Well, I’m going to do it my way.” That’s the way the Philistines did it, and it turned out good for them. Why can’t it turn out good for us? He could have done that. A little while later on, David said, “You know, we should have sought the Lord after the due order.” He already told us what to do. He’s saying He’s right; I’m wrong.

You know, sometimes some people just get stuck on getting God to bless them a certain way. I think of a man—a lady had broken his heart, a very sinful, very sad thing. But he was just bent on getting God to bless him by getting that lady back. Kind of to be honest with you, she ended up breaking his heart again. And I and other preachers said, “Hey, man, you can’t tell God, ‘Yes, He’ll bless you.’ Yes, these promises you’re saying, yes, they’re true, but it doesn’t mean God’s going to bless you the exact way you want Him to bless you.”

Sometimes we just get stuck on doing something, and old David learned from his mistakes. I’m glad he did. I’ve seen—you’ve seen them—some people that are just determined they’re going to get rich one way or the other, and they spend their life trying to get rich. They never learn.

David learned, praise the Lord. Yes, David, he disagreed. He said, “Oh, Lord, I don’t know about that one.” But then he kept his fear, and then a while later on, he’s saying, “Hey, He’s right and I’m wrong.” And he learned. It’s amazing how the world—Hollywood is a classic—they’re just going to have a good marriage their way. How’s that working for them? Watch their philosophy: “Love one another and another and another and another.” Hey, forget doing it your way. Say, “Lord, watch Your way here.” Learn and grow from those things.

Paul, the world just gets bent on raising kids their way. How about bringing them in the nurture and admonition of the Lord? I know Hollywood and Dr. Spock and all the rest of them don’t like it, but how about the tried and true proof? It’s the Bible. Sometimes we don’t learn. And David, praise the Lord, he learned from it. You know, if a guy gets one speeding ticket, that’s one thing. But if you get a whole lot of speeding tickets, somewhere along the line, you’ve got to learn. David learned.

And praise the Lord, he did. You know, it’s a good thing that only one guy got killed, got died, over David learning. Wonder if David wouldn’t have learned? Wonder if David wouldn’t have learned? Wonder if David would have gone to the house of Obed-Edom and said, “Man, we’re going to—the Philistines, if they did it, we can do it. We’re going to bring it on.” And I wonder how many more men would have died if I just don’t learn, I just won’t grow, and I won’t change, and I’m so bent on doing things my way. You ever meet somebody else that’s just, “That’s just the way I am”? Well, won’t you just change the way you are? It’s against God. God’s not blessing it.

I wonder if David wouldn’t have grown, how many more people would have died? If that’s Domino’s telling me, “We want ham and pineapple on that piece of pizza.” Hey, the best thing we can do when we disagree with God is say, “I don’t understand it all, but You’re right, and I’m wrong.” I’m not going to lose my fear of God just because of my feelings and my emotions, my hurt. By the way, it’s all right to hurt, but I’m not going to lose my fear of God. And I’m going to realize, hey, whether I understand it or not, He’s right; I’m wrong.

What do you do when you disagree with God? Don’t lose your fear of Him. Number two, just admit He’s right. He’s right; I’m wrong.

Then let’s look at one more thing. We’re done for the night. Amen. We’re going to go home. Look in verse number 13, if you would please. We’re back over there. Second Samuel, chapter 6. And we’re back over in verse number 13. We’re finding out what do you do when you disagree with God? I think we’ll all have times in our lives when we disagree with God. What do you do during those times? Don’t lose your fear. And admit God’s right; you’re wrong.

And then let’s look at this. Very interesting. Verse number 13: “And it was so that when they that bare the ark of the Lord had gone six paces, he sacrificed oxen and fatlings.”

“And David danced before the Lord with all his might. And David was girded with a linen ephod.” That’s like a priestly garment. Here’s the thing I want to just—we’ll next week probably get further down in here—but if you will, and I’m putting this word in there, it’s used a lot in our day and time, it’s misused sometimes. But David didn’t lose his fear of God. David said, “Hey, He’s right, I’m wrong. We should have sought Him after the due order.” And then really, if you would, David just worshipped the Lord.

That’s dancing here. It wasn’t a sensual dancing, a man and a lady in a bar somewhere, listening to some crazy music. By the way, you say, “Well, I want to dance with my husband, my wife.” Well, good. Go in your living room and dance with him. I don’t have a problem with that. You know, but the sensual, loose dancing that the world does, you’re dancing with another man and other men. The Bible’s not for that. But David danced for the Lord. He was worshipping the Lord.

By the way, David was a musician. He played the harp for Saul, and it seemed like music was a big way for David to worship. And different people—think about worship. Worship is such a unique thing. Well, worship the Lord a little differently, and don’t make someone else worship God like you worship God. Not going to sin in it, but we all worship God a little differently.

But when’s that last time you were really just—whether it’s in church or whether you’re out in some park or the woods somewhere or along in your truck or your car—what’s the last time? Maybe you just raised your hands to the Lord. Nothing wrong. That’s biblical. Somebody does it in church, I don’t mind. But sometimes church can be just misleading. But I mean, nothing wrong with you. You’re just somewhere being church. But whatever, you just raise your hands. You say, “Lord, I just want to thank You. You’ve been so good to me, and I don’t deserve Your loving-kindness and Your mercy.” When was the last time you really just worshipped the Lord?

It may look different for you. It may be that you get down on your knees and you just thank the Lord. It may be—I think of one advantage that we used to have come through and pray, and he lay prostrate on the floor over here and see him do it me several times and just pray to the Lord. But I don’t know what it is for you. When’s the last time you just got alone and you just thanked God and you worshipped Him? And maybe you shed tears, “You’re so good to me,” and you just worship the Lord. What David was doing, I think it was a key time right after he disagreed with God, right after he kept the fear of God, and then he said, “Hey, You’re right, I’m wrong.” Then he just wants to worship Him as God.

When’s the last time you listened to a song, man, you just couldn’t help but weep in that song? Sometimes young Christians, their praise, their worship is so pure. I mentioned this recently, me and Brother Kevin down here visited this guy who got saved in church here, and he said, “I’ve never been like this,” but he said, on the way home, I think from work, he said, “I just had to pull over on the side of the road and thank God for how beautiful the sunset was. I’ve never seen the sunset like that,” he said, “but that’s just beautiful.” When’s the last time us older Christians have been like that? He’s worshipping the Lord.

And I’m going to worship Him. I must worship Him in spirit and in truth. The attitude, the spirit of it must be there. But I can’t get off of truth. I’m not talking about going out and getting some rock and roll concert, the world’s music and all that. No, no, no. Worship Him in spirit and in truth. Both. Sometimes we can all be truth and no spirit. Both are important. The fact He says over there in John, “Worship Him in spirit,” spirit first, “and in truth.” By the way, I think if you have the right attitude, you’ll end up at the truth. You’re seeking the Lord in truth.

But David is worshipping the Lord. Man, when you go through a time, you just disagree with God—“Lord, I don’t understand this. It doesn’t seem fair. I can’t understand.” By the way, sometimes it’s seeing what all is going on in someone else’s life; it’s the hardest to kind of handle. Yet during that time, even when something else is going on, you stop. “I don’t want to lose my fear of God. And Lord, You’re right and I’m wrong.” And worship Him even during those times. It might be the most important times. It’s going to look different for you. The things I listed might be so far from the way you worship God.

The first time the word “worship” is mentioned in the Bible is in Genesis when Abraham is taking his son, Isaac, and is going to go offer him as a sacrifice. And he told the servants, “We’re going to go worship the Lord.” First time it’s mentioned in all the Bible right there. Wasn’t a crowd of people, no music that time, and just the father and his son going to go sacrifice. First time it’s mentioned in all the Bible. But it’s going to look so different for you. Brother Fontaine’s the musician. He likes the guitar and he likes to play, and so many others, Ms. Barb and Brother Glenn and so many. And music may be very much involved in your worship. I can play the tape player, the CD player, the DVD player, the TV. That’s about it, you know. So it’s probably going to look different.

Music is a great way. Can I say this? Old Lesterolp used to say this, and I agree so much. He used to say everybody ought to give God at least one concert a day. And sometimes we think music in the Bible is all about listening. All the Bible is talking about is singing and making melody in your hearts to the Lord. Sometimes instead of me listening to him, I just sing. I’ve got to tell a little bit on Brother Stover; I can do that. He’s out of town. By the way, his surgery got moved from Friday to tomorrow. It’s open-heart surgery tomorrow, by the way. Pray for him if you would. He sent me a text about that today. But old Dale Stover, he can’t—he can’t. I might be able to sing better than him. That’s saying something. That’s saying he’s pretty bad, is what that means. He worked at the ranch for years, and they kind of had him sing as a joke, you know. But, you know, for a while, I don’t know. I was on that thing about singing to the Lord for a while. And so I think he sent me a text one day—maybe he told me in person, I don’t know—but Dale Stover’s not a singer at all. But he said, “You know, I thought, well, preacher’s been on this thing.” I think in his car, you know, if you’re like me, you want to make sure the windows are up so nobody can hear you, you know. And he said, “I just tried that singing to the Lord.” He said, “Man, you know, there’s something to that. Sing to the Lord.” I can’t sing to the Lord when nobody’s around. I just make a joyful noise to the Lord, not to everybody else. Amen, you know. That’s a great way to worship the Lord. It’s amazing how songs, musical, put you in different moods. I really will. I like to sing sometimes just in the morning time, maybe on the way back. I go out in the woods and I’m walking back and sing a little bit. But just different songs are so fitting for different days and it brings out different thoughts and emotions in you. Helps you worship the Lord.

But worship the Lord. I don’t know exactly what it’s going to look like for you. The second time worship is mentioned in the Bible is over in Exodus. And the Lord is calling Moses and Aaron, a couple of Nadab and a couple of them, and then the 70 elders. And He said, “Come up here and worship afar off.” He says, “Now Moses, you come all the way up.” But it says worship afar off. That’s interesting. I don’t know. It’s always going to be the same thing, the same look, and you’re not going to do it like everybody else, but God wants your worship for Him.

David was a musician, and David—I thought about it—David must have not had arthritis at this point. He must have felt really—he must have been in shape, maybe, because he was pretty young, I think, still here, you know, because he danced with all his might before the Lord. You get old, you start doing that, you’re like, “Oh, man, I can’t thank you, worshiping God. I’m hurting too bad,” you know. Whatever it looks like for you—not sinful—but worshiping the Lord. It may be in church. God gets a hold of your heart. Man, you just worship Him right there in your seat, whether you raise your hands or whatever. Or maybe out in some creek watching the water flow down there. You just get along God’s creation. You just have a spell along with the Lord there. Sometimes we let sinful people keep us away from true worship. Hey friend, we ought to have true worship of God. It’s an important part of a Christian life, just worshiping God.

David just went through this time that he had. Yes, he had sinned. It was his fault, but he went through this time where he was just displeased with God, and Uzzah was killed. Maybe he was friends with Uzzah there. And God smote him, and David thought, “Why? I don’t get this thing.” But David didn’t lose his fear. And then David admitted, “Well, Lord, You’re right; I’m wrong.” And David worshipped the Lord.

You’ve heard it said an old-fashioned Pentecostal running—Pentecostal fit. And I clarify, I’m not for speaking in tongues and all that. You know, I speak with my tongue, but I don’t speak of the tongues they’re talking about. That’s right to do. Everybody’s going to be a little different. It’ll do something to you, though. Hey, maybe tonight there’s something in your life that you disagree with God about, and it’s kind of been something between you and the Lord that’s kept you away from the Lord, and you’re distant because of that. Maybe it’s something that happened to someone you love very much, and just to see them treated like that or to see that happen to them, and it just drove a wedge between you and God, and you just can’t come to grips with that. Maybe tonight be a good night and say, “Lord, I won’t lose my fear of You, and I respect—my reverence, my fear.” Lord, I need to come before You tonight and just own up to it. I don’t understand it. I don’t see it. But I know by faith that You’re right and I’m wrong. Maybe it’s tonight you say, “You know what? I really just need to worship Him for who and what He is. I need to see You as a mighty God, a powerful God.” Worship—we have to do that.

Would you bow your heads, please? Would you bow your heads? Would you please stand? I’m not going to really have you raise your hands tonight. We’re going to have a word of prayer. Maybe tonight just come and praise and worship Him, love on Him, thank You. Lord, I don’t want to lose my fear. Lord, I want to admit You’re right and I’m wrong, and I just want to thank You and love on You and worship You and praise You for who and what You are. Would you do that tonight if God spoke to your heart? You just be obedient to the Lord. Would you do that? We’ll have a word of prayer. You’ll be obedient to the Lord.

Father, thank You, thank You, thank You, thank You for Your word and all the examples in it. Father, help us to follow in David’s shoes. Lord, help me not to lose my fear of You. You’re a wonderful God, but I want to have that healthy fear of You. Forgive me; at times, I’ve debated and kind of disagreed. You’re always right, Lord. I’m always wrong. Help us to tonight—and not just tonight, tonight, tomorrow, in our life—just worship You. Bless the people tonight, Father, in this time. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.

Would you come? As our instruments play, would you come? Bow down before the Lord. You know, just my first look, it looks like David just automatically worshipped the Lord. Maybe that’s true; I don’t know. But it may be that David had to work at it a little bit. And maybe David had to worship the Lord and dance before the Lord with all his might on purpose. Sometimes I have to work at it. Sometimes it happens, but sometimes I have to work at having that in my heart and my mind, worshipping the Lord.
