King David was old and advanced in years, and Adonijah attempted to make himself king. The prophet Nathan and Bathsheba reported to David, and David kept his oath, commanding the priest Zadok and the prophet Nathan to anoint Solomon as the new king of Israel. Solomon rode on David's mule to the Gihon Spring to be anointed, the people shouted and celebrated, and Adonijah's scheme was thwarted.

God's plan is not changed by human ambition. We should obey God's will, and those who wait faithfully will finally see God complete what He has promised.
