Daily Bible Reading - November 2020 God's Life-Giving Word of Praise and ThanksgivingMostra

  

November 14

Introduction

Today’s reading is David’s response to the message the prophet Nathan delivered from God.  He offers a prayer that incorporates praise, thanksgiving, and concludes with a petition.

Scripture Reading 

1 Chronicles 17:16-27

Today’s Key Verse: 1 Chronicles 17:27

[David prayed:] “I ask you to bless my descendants so that they will continue to enjoy your favor. You, LORD, have blessed them, and your blessing will rest on them forever.”

Reflect

For what does David thank God in the present time? For what activities in the past does David praise God? What is David’s petition for the future? What promises of God are close to your heart?

Pray

Gracious God, there is none like you; you alone are the one true God, and you are the same yesterday, today, tomorrow, and forever. I thank and praise you for your steadfast love and for all your mighty deeds. Amen.
