2 Samuel 15:24
Compare all
22 So David said to Ittai, “Go, and cross over.” Then Ittai the Gittite and all his men and all the little ones who were with him crossed over.
23 And all the country wept with a loud voice, and all the people crossed over. The king himself also crossed over the Brook Kidron, and all the people crossed over toward the way of the awilderness.  
24 There was aZadok also, and all the Levites with him, bearing the bark of the covenant of God. And they set down the ark of God, and cAbiathar went up until all the people had finished crossing over from the city.  
25 Then the king said to Zadok, “Carry the ark of God back into the city. If I find favor in the eyes of the Lord, He awill bring me back and show me both it and bHis dwelling place.  
26 But if He says thus: ‘I have no adelight in you,’ here I am, blet Him do to me as seems good to Him.”  
27 The king also said to Zadok the priest, “Are you not a aseer? Return to the city in peace, and byour two sons with you, Ahimaaz your son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar.

II Samuel 15:24-25

There is David's faith in God. He didn't presume that God would bring him back, and he didn't have superstitious ideas that somehow he would win, just because the ark—this holiest of all items in the nation—was with him. No, David's faith was in God and he knew that God would make the right decision. Would He bring David back or was David about to be replaced by his son, Absalom? So David, in faith, was going to let God decide which way it was going to be.

Now, you see, there is our approach. David said the ark is to be where God said it is to be—in the place where God has placed His name. Not where David, in his anxiety, might feel justified to move it. You see there is a man of faith.
