David Thanked God 1 chronicles 15:1-4,11-12,14-28; 16:1-43
Bible Story Brief -
• David was the king in Israel. He did many things for the people. He built new buildings in Jerusalem.
• David also did things for God. He set up a special tent where the people could worship God. Inside the tent, he prepared a place for the ark of the covenant (a special gold-covered box that held the Ten Commandments). David gathered all the people including the Levites, whom God had chosen to carry the ark of the covenant.
• The Levites slid long poles into the sides of the ark of the covenant. They carried it on their shoulders with the poles.As they walked, the Levites and their relatives sang happy songs and played musical instruments. All the people followed, worshiping God.
• They arrived at the tent and placed the ark inside. King David gave offerings to God. He told the people how much God loved them. He gave them bread and cakes made with dates and raisins to eat.
• David sang, “Tell everyone the wonderful things God has done for us. Sing to God. Remember all He has done and how He keeps His promises. God is great. Give thanks to God for He is good.”
• All the people said “Amen” and “Praise God! ”They worshiped and thanked God; then they went home.

Life Application - I can thank God when I pray.
