David’s therapy was a virgin

King David was old and stricken in years; and they covered him with clothes. 
1 Kings 1v2: ‘Wherefore his servants said unto him, Let there be sought for my lord the king a young virgin: and let her stand before the king, and let her cherish him, and let her lie in thy bosom, that my lord the king may get heat.’

It happens with our lives occasionally and one thing to do about a situation is hastily find a suitable and sound solution as in the case above. The error associated with this is lack of faith in whatever action we take. Even dire is the confession of our faith without deeds. For, faith without deeds is dead and without faith it is impossible to please God.

God will give you the desires of your own heart, as much as the devil will reward his to compete. Usually, his gifts look more colourful and very generous. The consequential calamity is as grievous. Know that Jesus Christ came to give life and life in abundance, while the devil came to steal, kill and to destroy.

In your pursuit for happiness in this world, seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.

In the verse above, I should like to mention for your information, that David did not have sex with her.
