“The Rock”- Eliakim

The word says that Eliakim will be given the Key of David and will replace Shebna.  (Nancy Pelosi). We already talked about his “Father” Hilkiah in an earlier post and his service to YaHuWaH in cleaning house and getting rid of the idolatry surrounding him. He is a born leader.

The heart of David, above all, was to find a resting place for the presence of the Lord among his people, a “Dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob.”  David was known as a Shepherd, a Fugitive, a Warrior, and a King; but most of all, and above all, as a Worshipper. David was a man after God’s own heart. You see, God’s heart, above all, is to be in the midst of his people. That is why YaHuWaH came as Immanuel, God with us, to reconcile all things to himself.

It is to those whose hearts line up with God’s heart that God is prepared to entrust the Key of David. These are the ones to whom he wishes to impart the same authority that David walked in, to open doors that no one can shut, and shut doors that no one can open. As David was the least of his family and clan, a shepherd boy, yet called to a position of great authority in the Kingdom.
“The Lord gave David victory wherever he went.”

David put “first things first.” Central to all David did was the presence of God. He never lost the heart of worship … “that I may dwell in the House of Lord, in the presence of the Almighty One of Jacob, … to behold the beauty of Lord and to seek his face all the days of my life.

 God is looking for those who can be entrusted with the Key of David with Governmental Authority to open doors for Kingdom transformation. As we seek first his Kingdom and his righteousness, as we put “first things first” and establish a Dwelling Place for the Mighty One of Jacob by ministering to his presence through day and night worship, he will entrust us more and more with the Key of David, with authority to open doors that no one can shut, and shut doors that no one can open.
