David prepared a place for the Ark of God and then summoned the priests and the heads of the Levitical families to bring the Ark back. They brought the Ark back in the right way, according to God's way, not the way they did it earlier when Uzzah was killed. Think they learned a lesson?

David’s first wife, Michal, daughter of Saul despised David when she saw him dancing and celebrating at the return of the Ark. Why? Could it be because she was jealous? She later accuses David of disrobing in front of the slave girls. (2 Sam 6:20)

In David’s Songs of Praise, Psalm 105 and 96, he reviews and summarizes the story from Joseph to Moses. This keeps a remembrance before the people of all that God had done for them. How are we doing? Do we review and summarize things God has done for us? Do we proclaim “his glory among the nations, his marvelous deeds among all peoples.”

“…worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness…”When we gather before the Lord as a congregation, do we truly worship Him as He deserves? What would it look like to worship Him in the splendor of His holiness?
