The terms of this covenant were that a son from David's line would possess the throne forever, and that this son would build a house for Jehovah's name. God's purpose in this covenant was to provide a kingly dynasty for the Jews; to give Jesus, as David's heir, the legal right to the throne of David, "Jehovah's throne" (1Chronicle 29:23; Luke 1:32); and to provide identification for Jesus as the Messiah. (Ezekiel 21:25-27; Matthew 1:6-16; Luke 3:23-31) This covenant included no priesthood; the Levitical priesthood served in conjunction with kings of David's line; priesthood and kingship were strictly separate under the Law. Since Jehovah acknowledges this kingship and works through it forever, the covenant has everlasting duration. (Isaiah 9:7; 2Peter 1:11)

Why is Jesus ancestry important to David?
I doubt if the ancestry question about the coming Messiah was of much concern to David because it was God who had made the covenant with David that a King from his loins would sit on the throne of Judah and at the last time the "greater David", the Messiah would sit on the throne. David could not do a thing about it as God had made the covenant and it was up to God to perform it. But I guess you could say it was a good assurance to David.
