Michal - Her Promise

Michal - Her Promise

Michal’s contempt for true worship can be contrasted with David’s love of worship. He worshiped God with abandon, with a true heart. His devotion was so deep, so real, it had to be expressed in the most extravagant praise and in dancing “with all his might.” That’s the sort of worship God is looking for from his people, and he responds with a promise to bless.

Promises in Scripture

Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name.
Bring an offering and come before him;
worship the LORD in the splendor of his holiness.

— 1 Chronicles 16:29

Blessed be your glorious name, and may it be exalted above all blessing and praise. You alone are the LORD. You have made the heavens, even the highest heavens, and all their starry host, the earth and all that is on it, and seas and all that is in them. You give life to everything, and the multitudes of heaven worship you.

— Nehemiah 9:5 – 6

Come, let us bow down in worship,
let us kneel before the LORD our Maker;

for he is our God.

— Psalm 95:6 – 7

Enter his gates with thanksgiving
and his courts with praise;
give thanks to him and praise his name.

— Psalm 100:4
