July 26
Introduction
Today’s reading is the first half of David’s victory song. He compares God to a fortress, a shield, a place of protection, and more. He praises God for saving him from his enemies and recounts a dramatic narrative of danger and rescue.
Today’s Scripture: 2 Samuel 22:2 (GNT)
The LORD is my Protector; He is my strong Fortress.
Today’s Reading
2 Samuel 22:1-25
Reflect
David’s victory song, one of the oldest major poems in the Hebrew Scriptures, was also collected in a slightly different form in Psalm 18. In verses 21-25, David makes it clear that he thought the LORD supported him because he was innocent by God’s standards and because he obeyed the LORD. Does this sound like boasting? Why or why not?
Pray
Mighty God, You are my Rock, my Fortress, and my Protector. You are the place where I am safe. I praise You and thank You for the ways in which You protect and care for me. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Disaster relief workers.
Tomorrow’s Reading
