9 “And Solomon, my son, learn to know the God of your ancestors intimately. Worship and serve him with your whole heart and a willing mind. For the Lord sees every heart and knows every plan and thought. If you seek him, you will find him. But if you forsake him, he will reject you forever. 10 So take this seriously. The Lord has chosen you to build a Temple as his sanctuary. Be strong, and do the work.”
20 Then David continued, “Be strong and courageous, and do the work. Don’t be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord God, my God, is with you. He will not fail you or forsake you. He will see to it that all the work related to the Temple of the Lord is finished correctly. 21 The various divisions of priests and Levites will serve in the Temple of God. Others with skills of every kind will volunteer, and the officials and the entire nation are at your command.”
-1 Chronicles 28
18 “O Lord, the God of our ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, make your people always want to obey you. See to it that their love for you never changes. 19 Give my son Solomon the wholehearted desire to obey all your commands, laws, and decrees, and to do everything necessary to build this Temple, for which I have made these preparations.” - 1 Chronicles 29
Message:
Be strong and courageous and do the work.
Observation:
God has called us for a specific purpose. Many times it is laid before us by the family that GOD has given us, other times, GOD calls us out of our families like David was called from being a shepherd to be a king. Whatever that GOD has called us to do, we ought to remind ourselves and be faithful to do it.

Application:
Be faithful to the calling of GOD in your life. Many times we forget, we get busy with the mundane things instead of what we were called to be, remember GOD's purpose and plan for your life and do it with all your heart for there is nothing more satisfying and fulfilling than being able to do what GOD has created you to do.
