July 17
Introduction
Abigail finds David and intervenes and is able to dissuade him from killing innocent people. Days later, Nabal dies and David marries Abigail.
Today’s Scripture: 1 Samuel 25:32, 33 (GNT)
David said to her, “Praise the LORD, the God of Israel, who sent you today to meet me! Thank God for your good sense and for what you have done today in keeping me from the crime of murder and from taking my own revenge.”
Today’s Reading
1 Samuel 25:23-44
Reflect
Reread verses 26-31. What does Abigail say about the LORD? What does she say about David? While her words are prophetic about David’s future, she also warns David against incurring bloodguilt (verse 31). How would you describe Abigail? What are your thoughts with regard to the way she prevented David from seeking revenge?
Pray
Merciful God, forgive me when I close my heart to someone in need. May my thoughts and actions this day reflect Your love, and may my words be a source of encouragement and blessing. Fill me with Your peace. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Those who negotiate for peace.
Tomorrow’s Reading
1 Samuel 31:1-13: Saul and his sons die in battle.
