2 Samuel 5:3-4
(3) When all the elders of Israel had come to King David at Hebron, the king made a covenant with them at Hebron before the LORD, and they anointed David king over Israel.
(30) David was thirty years old when he became king, and he reigned forty years.
God anointed David to be King but it didn’t happen immediately. It took many years and life-threatening severe struggles. At some point, it seemed like he would never be king. God’s promise does not fail. Eventually, David became king and that assures us that it doesn’t matter how long it takes, eventually it will happen even for us!
2 Samuel 5:5
In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem he reigned over all Israel and Judah thirty-three years.
After many years of struggle and running away from king Saul who wanted to kill him, David became a ruler in Hebron over Judah for seven and a half years. God had promised him that he will be the ruler of Israel and not just a tiny province. Eventually, after seven and a half years God made David ruler of the whole of Israel. Eventually, he became king, eventually, it will happen even for you!
This article is coming out at a time when King Charles of the United Kingdom has become king after his mother Queen Elizabeth died. He is not young. It has taken many years of potentially being king. Eventually, he became king, eventually, it will happen for you!
Pure coincidence has it that this devotion that daily follows a chapter of the Bible has fallen on a day when Kenya’s fifth President is being inaugurated. God has a way of creating coincidences that may be thought to be of human making but are not. The president being inaugurated today has also struggled through all means and methods and today he has become president. Eventually, he became king, eventually, it will happen for you!
If you are praying and claiming God’s promise, take note of David’s situation. The answer took a long time to come but eventually, it came. At some point, it was discouraging but eventually, it came. At some point giving up was so tempting but he stayed on and eventually he became king. If it happened for David, may it happen for you and me, in Jesus’s name, Amen!

But equally pastor, Raila also underwent a lot. Recently, during the campaigns his chopper was depressurised in Mzee Kibor’s burial in a possible assassination attempt. We know all leaders are chosen by God at the right time according to His divine will. Not to relate anything, Saul was selected by God to eventually hand over power to David from whom we get to the lineage of Jesus who will be the ultimate King we all look forward to. Nothing is a coincidence before God and I remember an article to you did that all leaders are chosen by God for a specific divine purpose. May it be so according to His will and His predetermined knowledge which may be hidden from man.
This world is not our home, may God’s kingdom come soon! Our aim and hope is to cross over to eternal life…for now we accept God’s will and persevere. Be faithful to the end!
God knows why He had to make Dr. Ruto as president at such a time as this. Maybe this was to forestall war, ethnic animosity or something that would have affected advancement of the Gospel at such a time as this. Or a fulfillment of a particular phase in this work. Nothing is a coincidence. Only God knows and is fulfilling His will.
Well…God’s will be done!
Amen.
Amen
It was mine. Thank you Pastor
Hallelujah!
I think it would be better if we were impartial. Politics is divisive and people have different political persuasions even within the church. But that should not erode the work of the Lord. It is politics that introduced the church-state religion in Rome. Back home, tribal politics at Nairobi Central SDA nearly brought the Lord’s church to national shame. I may be limited in knowledge and I agree I am but I believe as a church and leaders we should be impartial for the sake of the Gospel. After all it is God who chooses leaders whether they are of our individual persuasions or not.
You are right!
Amen!
Amen!
