God delights to take people from the isolation on the periphery to a place of unexpected preeminence. God says, “It’s not about the size of who you are, it’s about who I AM and who I choose.” Your anointing has elasticity and is meant to increase over you and your environment as needed. Walk in the Spirit and the call of God will take you to the place of your ultimate assignment. The enemy cannot stop you.
Some people are pure lovers. They hate conflict. Others are pure warriors and constantly agitated with the activity of the enemy. Some are natural rulers. They focus on only those things relevant to their own enterprise. David was a strange combination, a Psalm-singing romantic, a Philistine slaying machine, and a king who unified Israel.
What happens when you combine these three in you? The convergence of these three streams is what made David a unique “type of Christ”—Jesus, the son of David. We need to recognize how these three streams are meant to flow together to strategically enlarge you and ultimately lead you to access “the key of David”!
What is the “key of David?” It is referenced in Revelation 3:7, “To the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: these are the words of him who is holy and true, who holds the key of David.”
The Old Testament refers to this in Isaiah 22:22 where a Prophet tells a palace official that he will be replaced by another. He said God “will place on his shoulder the key to the house of David.” The key implies authority. It speaks of control of David’s domain as promised to the Messiah. Jesus has been promised something: “Ask of me, and I will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession” (Psalm 2:8).
The End Time church is found in the blueprint not of Solomon's majestic temple, but rather the “tabernacle of David.”
What does this tabernacle look like? How is the Lord working in you to make you into a David?
- The Lover: Lovers are fervent in their quest for Jesus and worship intimately in the bridal stream. They are devoted to the Lord with a desire to be in the presence of Jesus. This stream is often disengaged from the battle.
- The Warrior: Prophetic warriors have unwavering courage to dismantle the gates of hell. They know how to pray with strength and might and are watchmen at the wall. The Warrior stands for truth and courageously fights to uphold kingdom values. These are the reformers in society.
- The King: Kings know how to be statesmen and have the wisdom to choose what battles to fight. They know when and how to speak! When they speak, they do so with arguments of the spirit that the enemy cannot stop. As decision-makers and influence shapers, they have authority over demons in the territory they are called to occupy.
These three streams form a picture of a glorious End Time Church.
David had a key of intimacy that unlocked something. He accessed the future! His Tabernacle was a place of direct access to God and His throne—in an atmosphere of prophetic worship. David modeled an intimacy that could access the powers of the age to come, and bring that into the age that is now! There isn’t a problem on earth that heaven cannot solve. Will we be the generation that displays the glory of God?
Question: The “key of David” rests on the those who are Lovers, Warriors and Kings. Are you feeling the call to expand? Comment below!

P.S. Listen to the new audio series “The Lover, The Warrior, & The King” to learn more about being a David in the fullest sense required by Jesus in your day. Available at lancewallnau.com/lwk and on the iTunes store.
I believe this has much to do with obedience. Acts 13:22 After removing Saul, he made David their King. God testified concerning him ‘I have found David son of Jesse, a man after my own heart; he will do everything I want him to do’.
As you show above David does do everything God wants him to do. There is value in Lover, Warrior and King.
Before Jesus turns water into wine, His Mother said to the servants ‘Do whatever he tells you’. John 2:5
I was given a word when I was baptized and it was John 2:5 written on a torn piece of paper, supernaturally torn in the shape of a vav. I have taped it to the inside of one of my bibles.
My Brother,
You come to right out of the twenty years of teaching in the church that was founded in Oakland, Ca. by Prophet , Teacher
of Teachers and Sister who was part of the group that gathered
in Canada in 1948, in an old airport building, to find her calling
and take us into the very teaching that you announce today.
The Latter Rain, for what ever reason. The history of that woman and the group that was there is walking around right
now, teaching and preaching to all who would listen, and are
waiting for the worship and spiritual insight that we had for
so many years.
We are and will be ready to jump on that train and take us to
our callings and purpose in life for this time in the History of
Shiloh and the love, warrior and placement maker for the time
that we were assigned to see and be a part of.
Bless you for your beautiful announcement and assurance that,
though He tarried with us, we are still armed and ready.
The sleeping church, and the country in the USA of today, will
be “made alive” in the days and years to come.
Though we tarry, we KNOW Him and we shall finally be able
to turn our names from Jacob to Israel.
Continue to “Sound the Alarm” and we will meet at the call
of Zion, for our Beloved to awaken all who have been in their
times of hibernation, and those who continue to be available
and fulfilled by our Master.
Thanks again, Brother. You are a joy to the hearts of many.
So true….lover, warrior,king…”A three fold cord is not easily broken”
And so true that you positioned “lover” firstly. The Word declares “Pursue love, and eagerly desire the gifts, especially that you might prophesy”. We’ll never be prophetic warriors without the pursuit of love. And we’ll be spiritually weak kings without the flow of love through our lives.
Thank you for your insight. It’s blessed me today and sits in my “meditator” …lover, warrior, king
Blessings in Him. Grace
I would like to Thank you Lance for word & insight Gods word is mighty.
Your words are appreciated, Harve!

Thanks, Matthew!!
Yes, I see myself in all of those 3. I am a worshiper and lover. It’s really hard to be in church or a meeting when we don’t take time to invite the Holy Spirit and worship in God’s presence long enough to impact us. This is so critical in the time that we live in!!
Yes, Christine…so true…it’s vital!
I SAND ON EARTH AS PORTALS OPEN TO HEAVEN AND THE KING DELIVERS REVELATION AND IMPARTATION TO EARTH FROM HEAVEN.JESUS THE KING OF KINGS I LIVE AND MOVE AND HAVE MY BEING IN YOU.
Thank you Lance.
Yes, this word resonates in my spirit. I have connected with Davis for many years, and now appropriate the nature of David’s Kingdom for these end-time days. No weapon formed against me can prosper, for the Spirit of God within alerts, equips and performs His working. The “unknowns” of the future are not confusing Him, and He will direct our paths!
Bless you.As One!
Amen, John!
I am feeling the call to expand. I have always been a Lover of Jesus Christ. In 1973 God gave me a strong hunger for His Word. He placed me into the book of Revelation. I have always known that I am a Warrior. Since I am a child of God, I’m also a King. But it has only been recently that the Holy Spirit was showing me that I had been believing a lie. The Truth was that I had the authority to cast out the spirits of darkness. Even at church I received an prophetic word that had something to do with a “key.” And now that I have read what you had to say, I understand. I have the Key of David and the authority to cast out the spirits of darkness. God bless you.
Vita, thank you for that testimony! Good to hear that you are beginning to walk in your spiritual authority and identity in Christ. Blessings to you!
Excellent revelation Lance! Yeshua does it Good! It’s fun to pray for you because you have a tender heart in The Father, and you receive and respond to His Glorious Love! Awesome days we live in as His Warriors and Lovers of His Soul! Shalom, God Bless you and Annabelle,and family!
