He promises him blessings and benefits in his seed 16. David's prayer and thanksgiving But that night This phrase indicates a specific time when God chose to communicate with Nathan. The immediacy of "that night" suggests the urgency and importance of the message. In biblical narratives, nighttime often serves as a setting for divine revelations, as seen in Genesis 28:12 with Jacob's dream. The timing underscores God's active involvement in the unfolding events. the word of God came to Nathan, saying, Persons / Places / Events 1. NathanA prophet during the reign of King David, Nathan played a crucial role in communicating God's messages to David. He is known for his wisdom and courage in delivering God's word, even when it was challenging. 2. David The King of Israel, known for his heart after God. In this chapter, David expresses his desire to build a temple for the Lord, which prompts God's response through Nathan. 3.

Teaching Points The Role of ProphetsProphets are God's messengers, chosen to deliver His word to His people. Nathan's role reminds us of the importance of listening to God's voice and being obedient to His guidance. God's Sovereignty in Communication God chooses the time and manner in which He communicates with His people. His message to Nathan at night signifies that God is always at work, even when we are at rest. The Importance of Divine Revelation God's word is central to understanding His will and purpose. We should seek His revelation through prayer, scripture, and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Obedience to God's Plan David's desire to build a temple was noble, but God's plan was different. We must be willing to submit our desires to God's greater plan, trusting in His wisdom and timing. The Continuity of God's Promises The message to David through Nathan is part of God's unfolding plan of redemption, culminating in Jesus Christ. This reminds us of the faithfulness of God to His promises throughout history.(3) The same night.--The words indicate a dream as the method of communication (Job 4:13; 1Samuel 27:6).Verse 3. - The express word of God came, however, that same night. It proved to be an overruling word. But it brought with it the point of a fresh and most welcome new departure for David. We might glean here by the way a suggestion of the beneficent operation of express revelation, superseding the thought, the method, the reason of man. Parallel Commentaries ...
