2:9 Not because of works [not the fulfillment of the Law’s demands], lest any man should boast. [It is not the result of what anyone can possibly do, so no one can pride himself in it or take glory to himself.]

V. THESIS:

Praise, worship and thank You very much LORD JESUS for we have obtained peace, righteousness, security and triumph over opposition all because of You and no human effort made on our part. Thank You very much for all Your Gracious and Glorious Gifts upon us.

Isaiah 54:17 (Amplified Bible)

54:17 But no weapon that is formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue that shall rise against you in judgment you shall show to be in the wrong. This [peace, righteousness, security, triumph over opposition] is the heritage of the servants of the Lord [those in whom the ideal Servant of the Lord is reproduced]; this is the righteousness or the vindication which they obtain from Me [this is that which I impart to them as their justification], says the Lord.

VII. EXPLICATION:

2 Samuel 5:12 (Amplified Bible)

And David perceived that the Lord had established him king over Israel and that He had exalted his kingdom for His people Israel’s sake.

2 Samuel 7:12-13 (Amplified Bible)

And when your days are fulfilled and you sleep with your fathers, I will set up after you your offspring who shall be born to you, and I will establish his kingdom.

He shall build a house for My ame [and My Presence], and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever.

VIII. MAIN BODY:

A. Chimham went with the king - no human effort or attainment

"Then the king went on to Gilgal, and Chimham went with him;"

Four ways that Chimham is a type of a CHRISTian believer is seen through the meaning of his own name.

Chimham or his Hebrew name "kimham" means:

1. washed away - we are washed by the blood of JESUS

Revelation 7:14 (Amplified Bible)

7:14 I replied, Sir, you know. And he said to me, These are they who have come out of the great tribulation (persecution), and have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

2. hungry - we are hungry for GOD's Presence and His WORDS

Matthew 4:4 (Amplified Bible)

4:4 But He replied, It has been written, Man shall not live and be upheld and sustained by bread alone, but by every word that comes forth from the mouth of God.

Deuteronomy 8:3 (Amplified Bible)

8:3 And He humbled you and allowed you to hunger and fed you with manna, which you did not know nor did your fathers know, that He might make you recognize and personally know that man does not live by bread only, but man lives by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of the Lord.

3. lean - we are leaning on GOD - dependent and relying only on GOD

Psalms 62:8 (Amplified Bible)

62:8 Trust in, lean on, rely on, and have confidence in Him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts before Him. God is a refuge for us (a fortress and a high tower). Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]!

Romans 15:13 (Amplified Bible)

15:13 May the God of your hope so fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound and be overflowing (bubbling over) with hope.

Hebrews 2:13 (Amplified Bible)

2:13 And again He says, My trust and assured reliance and confident hope shall be fixed in Him. And yet again, Here I am, I and the children whom God has given Me.

4. withered - we are withered apart from CHRIST

Psalms 1:3 (Amplified Bible)

1:3 And he shall be like a tree firmly planted [and tended] by the streams of water, ready to bring forth its fruit in its season; its leaf also shall not fade or wither; and everything he does shall prosper [and come to maturity].

Jeremiah 17:7-8 (Amplified Bible)

17:7 [Most] blessed is the man who believes in, trusts in, and relies on the Lord, and whose hope and confidence the Lord is.

17:8 For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters that spreads out its roots by the river; and it shall not see and fear when heat comes; but its leaf shall be green. It shall not be anxious and full of care in the year of drought, nor shall it cease yielding fruit.

Chimham has unusual favor with King David (symbolizing the King of kings) although he has done nothing for the king. Chimham has great favor like us although we have done nothing for GOD, GOD saved us and enriched us with His Favors.

Ephesians 2:8-9 (Amplified Bible)

2:8 For it is by free grace (God’s unmerited favor) that you are saved (delivered from judgment and made partakers of Christ’s salvation) through [your] faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [of your own doing, it came not through your own striving], but it is the gift of God;

2:9 Not because of works [not the fulfillment of the Law’s demands], lest any man should boast. [It is not the result of what anyone can possibly do, so no one can pride himself in it or take glory to himself.]

John 1:16 (Amplified Bible)

1:16 For out of His fullness (abundance) we have all received [all had a share and we were all supplied with] one grace after another and spiritual blessing upon spiritual blessing and even favor upon favor and gift [heaped] upon gift.

B. Others are just escort of the king

"and all the people of Judah and also half the people of Israel escorted the king"

Conducted, escort or "abar" means:

1. to cross over

2. transition

3. convey over

4. deliver, do away

The LORD JESUS CHRIST or Aleph-Tav signature is close to the word and after the word "conducted" so the LORD Himself will conduct and escort us to GOD so that it will be easy transition from unbeliever to believer.

The Escort - the LORD JESUS CHRIST never left Judah his own tribe.

Genesis 49:10 (Amplified Bible)

49:10 The scepter or leadership shall not depart from Judah, nor the ruler’s staff from between his feet, until Shiloh [the Messiah, the Peaceful One] comes to Whom it belongs, and to Him shall be the obedience of the people.

Matthew 21:9 (Amplified Bible)

21:9 And the crowds that went ahead of Him and those that followed Him kept shouting, Hosanna (O be propitious, graciously inclined) to the Son of David, [the Messiah]! Blessed (praised, glorified) is He Who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna (O be favorably disposed) in the highest [heaven]!

The LORD JESUS CHRIST our escort always carries us in His arms.

Psalms 28:9 (Amplified Bible)

28:9 Save Your people and bless Your heritage; nourish and shepherd them and carry them forever.

Even if we have to cross the Red Sea, the LORD our Escort will make sure that He will make it dry ground.

Psalms 66:6 (Amplified Bible)

66:6 He turned the sea into dry land, they crossed through the river on foot; there did we rejoice in Him.

Even if we pass through the waters and walk through the fire, it will not drown us and burn us because the LORD - our Escort is always with us.

Isaiah 43:2 (Amplified Bible)

43:2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned or scorched, nor will the flame kindle upon you.

IX. CONCLUSION:

Praise, worship and thank You very much LORD JESUS for we have obtained peace, righteousness, security and triumph over opposition all because of You and no human effort made on our part. Thank You very much for all Your Gracious and Glorious Gifts upon us.
