So on into the book of Kings. In 1 Kgs. 2:12 we read of Solomon's firmly established kingdom. But how did this come about when Adonijah had seized the throne with substantial support? Well, "it was [Solomon's] from the LORD" (1 Kgs. 2:15). Such is the way things tend to go when God governs the universe.
We also read that the LORD's word from 1 Sam. 2:27-36 was fulfilled: 1 Kgs. 2:27. As I said, such is the way things tend to go when God governs the universe.
This is Calvinism—God, sovereign everywhere. Come, join the joy ride. Come, and worship before the Lord.
