DAVID:
2 Samuel 7:26,28-29
[26]So let Your name be magnified forever, saying, ‘The Lord of hosts is the God over Israel.’ And let the house of Your servant David be established before You.
[28]“And now, O Lord God, You are God, and Your words are true, and You have promised this goodness to Your servant.
[29]Now therefore, let it please You to bless the house of Your servant, that it may continue before You forever; for You, O Lord God, have spoken it, and with Your blessing let the house of Your servant be blessed forever.”
1 Chronicles 17:1,10,16,20,23-24
[1]Now it came to pass, when David was dwelling in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, “See now, I dwell in a house of cedar, but the ark of the covenant of the Lord is under tent curtains.”
[10]since the time that I commanded judges to be over My people Israel. Also I will subdue all your enemies. Furthermore I tell you that the Lord will build you a house.
[16]Then King David went in and sat before the Lord; and he said: “Who am I, O Lord God? And what is my house, that You have brought me this far?
[20]O Lord, there is none like You, nor is there any God besides You, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
[23]“And now, O Lord, the word which You have spoken concerning Your servant and concerning his house, let it be established forever, and do as You have said.
[24]So let it be established, that Your name may be magnified forever, saying, ‘The Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, is Israel’s God.’ And let the house of Your servant David be established before You
1 Kings 8:25-26
[25]Therefore, Lord God of Israel, now keep what You promised Your servant David my father, saying, ‘You shall not fail to have a man sit before Me on the throne of Israel, only if your sons take heed to their way, that they walk before Me as you have walked before Me.’
[26]And now I pray, O God of Israel, let Your word come true, which You have spoken to Your servant David my father.
Jeremiah 23:5-6
[5]“Behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord, “That I will raise to David a Branch of righteousness; A King shall reign and prosper, And execute judgment and righteousness in the earth.
[6]In His days Judah will be saved, And Israel will dwell safely; Now this is His name by which He will be called: THE Lord OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.
Ezekiel 34:23-25,30
[23]I will establish one shepherd over them, and he shall feed them—My servant David. He shall feed them and be their shepherd.
[24]And I, the Lord, will be their God, and My servant David a prince among them; I, the Lord, have spoken.
[25]“I will make a covenant of peace with them, and cause wild beasts to cease from the land; and they will dwell safely in the wilderness and sleep in the woods.
[30]Thus they shall know that I, the Lord their God, am with them, and they, the house of Israel, are My people,” says the Lord God.’
