Daily Bible Reading – August 2021: God’s Word of Promise

DAY 27 OF 31

August 27

Introduction

Judges 15:1-8 describes how Samson had burned the Philistines’ wheat fields. In today’s reading, the Philistines attack the town of Lehi. The men of Judah, seeking to avoid a confrontation with the Philistines, tie up Samson and plan to hand him over to the Philistines. But Samson breaks free and kills a thousand Philistine men with the jawbone of a donkey.

Today’s Scripture Reading 

Judges 15:9-20

Today’s Key Verse: Judges 15:14b

Suddenly the power of the LORD made him strong, and he broke the ropes around his arms and hands as if they were burnt thread.

Reflect

Yesterday’s reading informed us that Samson was chosen to rescue Israel from the Philistines (13:5) and that the LORD’s power began to strengthen him (13:25). How did Samson defeat the Philistines? How did God provide for Samson after his victory over the Philistines? In what ways does God provide for you?

Pray

Lord God, empower me with your Holy Spirit and strengthen me to serve you. In your holy name, I pray. Amen.

Prayer Concern

That peace would prevail where there is strife

Tomorrow’s Reading

Numbers 6:1-27: Instructions are given for those who vow to become Nazirites.
