1 Chronicles 17:25-27 King James Version (KJV)
25 For thou, O my God, hast told thy servant that thou wilt build him an house: therefore thy servant hath found in his heart to pray before thee.
26 And now, LORD, thou art God, and hast promised this goodness unto thy servant:
27 Now therefore let it please thee to bless the house of thy servant, that it may be before thee for ever: for thou blessest, O LORD, and it shall be blessed for ever.
1 Chronicles 17:25-27 Common English Bible (CEB)
25 You, my God, have revealed to your servant that you will build him a dynasty. That is why your servant has found the courage to pray this prayer to you. 26 LORD, you are truly God, and you promised this good thing to your servant. 27 So now willingly bless your servant’s dynasty so that it might continue forever before you, because you, LORD God, have promised. Let your servant’s dynasty be blessed forever by your blessing.

These are my thoughts, please share yours.
David knew that because the Lord had said it that it would happen and He knew that only by Him could it become a good thing. Only thru by his family serving Him would it be a good thing, God promises will happen for us but we do not need to forget Him once He takes us there. Jesus is the fulfillment to this promise. It is by Christ that his family would not only be a blessing to us but to everyone giving us a long needed hope, a Savior. Christ’s blessings are eternal.
