1 Chronicles 17:4-6 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

          4“Go and tell My servant David that this is what the LORD says: You are not the one to build Me a house in which to dwell.
          5For I have not dwelt in a house from the day I brought Israel up out of Egypt until this day, but I have moved from tent to tent and dwelling to dwelling.
          6In all My journeys with all the Israelites, have I ever asked any of the leaders I appointed to shepherd My people, ‘Why haven’ t you built Me a house of cedar?’
