Benaiah: Overcoming Giants With God's Strength

DAY 2 OF 3

Day 2: Benaiah's Loyalty and Integrity

2 Samuel 23:23 "He was held in greater honor than any of the Thirty, but he was not included among the Three. And David put him in charge of his bodyguard."

Reflection:

On the second day, we examine Benaiah's loyalty and integrity. Though he was not part of David's most elite group, "The Three," he was considered one of the most honoured and respected of David's warriors. His loyalty earned him a position as the commander of David's bodyguard.

Loyalty and integrity are two qualities that can set us apart in the eyes of both God and people. In a world where taking shortcuts, compromising values, and seeking personal gain are common, Benaiah stood out for his faithfulness and integrity. He wasn't focused on seeking his own glory; instead, he remained loyal to King David, which can be seen as a reflection of our loyalty to God.

Application:

Where do you need to practice more loyalty or integrity in your life? Whether it's in relationships, work, or your faith, let Benaiah's example challenge you to serve faithfully and with a heart of integrity. When we commit ourselves to be faithful to God, He honours that commitment.

Prayer:

Lord, help me to live with integrity in every area of my life. May my loyalty to You be evident in my actions, words, and decisions. Keep me grounded in Your truth, even when faced with temptations. Amen.

Dan 1Dan 3
