1 LORD, remember David
and all the hardships he endured.
2 He swore an oath to the LORD,
he made a vow to the Mighty One of Jacob:
3 ‘I will not enter my house
or go to my bed,
4 I will allow no sleep to my eyes
or slumber to my eyelids,
5 till I find a place for the LORD,
a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob.’
6 We heard it in Ephrathah,
we came upon it in the fields of Jaar:[a]
7 ‘Let us go to his dwelling-place,
let us worship at his footstool, ,
8 “Arise, O LORD, and come to your resting place,
you and the ark of your might.
9 May your priests be clothed with your righteousness;
may your saints sing for joy.”’
10 For the sake of your servant David,
do not reject your anointed one.

11 The LORD swore an oath to David,
a sure oath he will not revoke:
‘One of your own descendants
I will place on your throne.
12 If your sons keep my covenant
and the statutes I teach them,
then their sons shall sit
on your throne for ever and ever.’
13 For the LORD has chosen Zion,
he has desired it for his dwelling, ,
14 ‘This is my resting place for ever and ever;
here I will sit enthroned, for I have desired it.
15 I will bless her with abundant provisions;
her poor I will satisfy with food.
16 I will clothe her priests with salvation,
and her faithful people shall ever sing for joy.
17 ‘Here I will make a horn[b] grow for David
and set up a lamp for my anointed one.
18 I will clothe his enemies with shame,
but the crown on his head shall be resplendent
(NIV)

Psalm 132:- This psalm is said to be a royal Psalm;. It is about bringing the ark of the covenant into the city and into the Temple.
I wonder if you have ever bought a religious article may be a large cross, and you have gone around the house wondering where you can put it. A friend bought me a cross, and it was with care that I went around the house, wondering where I should put it. In the end I decided by the front door, so that all people who came through my door could bless.
Where is God in our homes? And in our workplaces.?
Have we denied or shut God out of our homes and in our lives?
Do we welcome God into our lives?
Our aim should be, to let God into our homes, into our lives and into the places where we work.
Find a place in your home or office, where you feel comfortable in talking to God, and talk to Him every day.
