David was one exceptional king, who in his relationship with God, devoted himself to find out, what were the things close to God’s heart and what truly pleased Him. After getting to know the truth, he made himself servilely attentive and obedient to always do what God loved! More often than not, he displayed the unique trait of enquiring God before he ventured into anything for himself or the nation. This is perhaps the foremost reason, why God in spite of David’s many shortcomings overlooked them and placed him on the top of the pedestal of God-pleasers.
