I Chronicles 29:23
Then Solomon sat on the throne of the Lord as king instead of David his father; and he prospered, and all Israel obeyed him.
When God made David to be the king of Israel, He put him on the Lord's throne to rule under Him. And his son Solomon also sat on the Lord's throne, to rule as God's representative. And because he recognized his position, as governing for God over God's people, he prospered; and the people submitted themselves to his authority, and all Israel prospered during Solomon's reign.
So David's throne that all the prophesies talk about, the throne David sat on, is not really David's, but the Lord's throne. When our Lord Jesus Christ returns, He will sit on His throne that He had sat David on, and Solomon; they ruled in His stead; then, at His return, He will rule on His own throne Himself. It always was His throne.
Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
