The last words of a person's life are significant, because it represents a summary of their life. David's last words reflected a hope in God's promise – salvation through Jesus Christ. He was looking forward to something great, he was looking to heaven, and his last words reflected his life and his hope. Now as we look at a summary of David's life, may we be encouraged to live a life of faith, hope and love, so that our last words will also ring with those things.
