Text: Psalms 132:1-8
Would you like to know one of the reasons why God loved David?...I believe it was because David got hold of something that was of greatest importance to God's heart.
Psalms 132:4-5 "I will allow no sleep to my eyes, no slumber to my eyelids, till I find a place for the Lord, a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob." NIV
Psalms 132:8 "Arise, O Lord, and come to your resting place, you and the ark of your might" NIV
David was talking about bringing the ark of God which signifies God's presence to Jerusalem. He pursued this so much with all his heart. He was an ardent seeker of God. Of a truth, he was a man after God's heart.
Well then, how does this relate to us? It relates to us so much. We should always desire and pursue after being 'a woman after God's heart'. To do this, just like David, we should be an ardent seeker of Jesus and bring Him back to the centrepiece of our heart. Jesus should be at the centrepiece of every aspect of our life. Quitting self righteousness and surrendering to God's Righteousness which Christ has brought is the substance we need. No matter how hard we try, only Jesus can help us. God has put everything in subjection under Jesus,
Hebrews 2:8 "...and put everything under his feet. In putting everything under him, God left nothing that is not subject to him. Yet at present we do not see everything subject to him." NIV
Looking to the finished work of Christ will make us to be the TRIUMPHANT WOMAN that God has planned for us.

As stated by Stanford Medical, It's in fact the one and ONLY reason women in this country live 10 years more and weigh on average 42 pounds less than we do.
