I Chronicles 17:2 - "Then Nathan said to David, 'Do all that is in your heart, for God is with you.'”
Like King David, when we have come to a place in our Christian walk where we are living in victory and the devil and the flesh are subdued, we come to a special place in God. When we are walking in peace and fellowship, then our hearts are totally given to the Lord and His desires become our desires. Nathan was speaking under the power and unction of the Holy Spirit, knowing David's heart was intent on doing God's will. Likewise, when we come to that place of communion, He gives us all the desires of our heart (Psalm 37:4).
We must be careful to guard our hearts for the enemy will always seek to dissuade us from the things of the Lord. David found this out in the Bathsheba affair. However, we do not need to fall. May we seek the Lord, asking Him to lead us not into temptation, but to deliver us from evil (Matthew 6:13). He is faithful and just to do so if we will but ask.
