I don't see a problem here. This was fulfilled in Jesus Christ who is of the lineage of David.
Jesus is the King raised up by God whose Kingdom will last forever.
Phil 2:8-11
8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
9 Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name,
10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Matt 12:18-21
18 "Behold, my servant whom I have chosen, my beloved with whom my soul is well pleased. I will put my Spirit upon him, and he will proclaim justice to the Gentiles.
19 He will not quarrel or cry aloud, nor will anyone hear his voice in the streets;
20 a bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not quench, until he brings justice to victory;
21 and in his name the Gentiles will hope."

Not really, but if someone felt convicted by the Holy Spirit after reading that I would be glad =D

1 Cor 2:14
The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned.

If anyone reading this is struggling with an addiction, there is Rest in Jesus.

Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
