David understood that the Lord had established him

The short summary- often The Bible recorded on individuals- here is an example- ‭

1 Chronicles 10:13-14 AMP‬
[13] So Saul died for his trespass which he committed against the Lord, for his failure to keep the word of the Lord; and also because he consulted a medium [regarding a spirit of the dead], to inquire of her, [14] and did not inquire of the Lord [instead]. Therefore the Lord killed him and turned the kingdom over to David the son of Jesse.

David become the King of Israel after Saul- ‭1 Chronicles 12:22 AMP‬
[22] For day by day men kept coming to David to help him, until there was a great army, like the army of God.

‭1 Chronicles 11:9 AMP‬- [9] David became greater and greater, for the Lord of hosts was with him.

‭1 Chronicles 14:2 AMP‬- [2] And David understood that the Lord had established and confirmed him as king over Israel, for his kingdom was highly exalted for the sake of His people Israel.

The Greek verb for "keep" (tērēsete) is future tense and follows a conditional — love isn't presented as a prerequisite for a transaction ("obey...
