David’s Praise to God

10 Therefore David blessed the Lord before all the assembly; and David said:
“Blessed are You, Lord God of Israel, our Father, forever and ever.
11 aYours, O Lord, is the greatness,
The power and the glory,
The victory and the majesty;
For all that is in heaven and in earth is Yours;
Yours is the kingdom, O Lord,
And You are exalted as head over all. 
12 aBoth riches and honor come from You,
And You reign over all.
In Your hand is power and might;
In Your hand it is to make great
And to give strength to all. 
13 “Now therefore, our God,
We thank You
And praise Your glorious name.
14 But who am I, and1 who are my people,
That we should be able to offer so willingly as this?
For all things come from You,
And of Your own we have given You. 
15 For awe are aliens and pilgrims before You,
As were all our fathers;
bOur days on earth are as a shadow,
And without hope.  
16 “O Lord our God, all this abundance that we have prepared to build You a house for Your holy name is from Your hand, and is all Your own.
17 I know also, my God, that You atest the heart and bhave pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of my heart I have willingly offered all these things; and now with joy I have seen Your people, who are present here to offer willingly to You.  
18 O Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, our fathers, keep this forever in the intent of the thoughts of the heart of Your people, and fix their heart toward You.

I Chronicles 29:9-19

Again, I recognize this offering was specifically for the Temple. However, we are answering the question, what is God looking for in an offering? And so this very much applies to any offering that we would bring before God. We see that God is testing and looking at what is in our heart when we give. How are we giving? Are we giving with an upright and willing heart? Are we acknowledging that everything that we have comes from God?
