Day 189 Bible Reading: 1 Chronicles 6, Acts 26, Psalm 6 and Proverb 18:20-21 
The ark of the covenant contained the Ten Commandments. But the ark also served as a throne for God and represented the presence of God. During Saul's reign, the ark had been captured and kept by Kirjath Jearim's people. David wanted to bring back the presence of God to the city, Jerusalem. It was David's kingdom, but he wanted it to become the dwelling place of God. Let us also live out a Christian's life, which brings the presence of Jesus back in our lives, into our marriage and family, and into our works or ministry, we are kingdom bringer. Let's the agape love of God flow through us, so that we are a living bible attract people to the gospel.
"These are the men whom David put in charge of the service of song in the house of the Lord after the ark rested there. They ministered with song before the tabernacle of the tent of meeting until Solomon built the house of the Lord in Jerusalem, and they performed their service according to their order." – 1 Chronicles 6:31-32 (English Standard Version)
"Lord God, help us to worship each day, not just sing by our lips, but our actions in love and our character in Christ. In Jesus' name, Amen."
