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.

Glad you found this message encouraging, Corina!!
I recently made my vision board. Near the center of the board I put a key (stands for key of David). I also incorporated some of my “I Am” statement into my board. It was so much fun to do!!
Fantastic, Martha!
This is very good. Thanks
Thanks for the feedback, Gladys!
ABSOLUTELY and not only to expand but to DOMINATE! In Jesus Name!
Yes!
Hallelujah, I am skipping and jumping, because this revelotary Truth, if we who are called by His name, (the Davidic worshippers) truly grasp who we really are in the earth, and begin to rule in righteousness and justic, we will see the world system turn upside down, like in the Apostle Paul’s time. Thank you Lance Wallnau.
Amen, Fran! Thanks for the comment!
Lance, I absolutely love this revelation and thank God greatly for you and your family. My question is, how can I receive training and impartation? Do you mentor Sr. Leaders such as myself who have been called to birth something where thereis no working model?
This is great Dr.Lance, just right when I needed to hear to step out to equip the Esther Joseph of this time and to finish the book ABC Book of Light- the #1 blueprint to be happy regardless! by A: seeking God Abba our Divine Architect to know our life blue print throughB: Beatitudes of Jesus, C : to carry it till the finishing line , the cross, the key to enter the resurrected life.
We needed to expand our vision and we need your bigger vision Dr. Lance!
I have enjoyed your messages posted before thoroughly, Just want to say thank you Dr. Lance for your faith filled sharing for we need to lean on your message. Oanh Ngo , Onah Esther De jesus, founder of Agapae Life Design Center
Everything in the kingdom deals with capacity… Higher heights, deeper depths, wider widths &bbroader breadths! (Mark 4:24-25) What vessel will you need to harvest your destiny? A thimble, a cup, a bucket or a tanker truck?
Gene, great questions!
This article, and the LWK series came just in time for me – – literally on a day when I was starting to wonder if I was spiritually schizophrenic (not really, but just to make my point). I could not understand why I would bask in the Presence of God one minute, and passionately fight for certain things societally, in the next. It now makes complete sense. (Except just one thing, and that is that I still cannot figure out the mountain on which I belong). Secondly, with regard to the apostolic church having the anointing for governance, again, such clarity! I think of the political grassroots coalition movements in the 90’s, where churches and church-goers were successfully vocal, yet it did not last. This makes me think there was no apostolic anointing on that movement (more of an evangelically based strategy?). I think many Christians have blamed the increase in societal wrongdoing on lack of church involvement, but maybe we had the right idea, the right heart, but the wrong strategy. “Microchurch-ers” on their mountains makes infinite sense. Now if I could just figure out my mountain! Absolutely excellent series!
Lisa, glad this post brought some clarity! All of those attributes are part of your identity–who God made you to be as you reflect His image. Have you heard the DVD/MP3 series “Take All 7″….I think it would shed light on which mountain(s) you’re meant to take. Find it here: http://lancewallnau.com/takeall7
