Daily Bible Reading — Sustained by God’s Word of PromiseНамуна
July 13
Introduction
Today’s reading is often referred to as Samuel’s farewell address. He begins by seeking acknowledgment from the people for his leadership and then recounts God’s mighty deeds and all the times God rescued them from their enemies. He reminds them to obey and serve the LORD.
Today’s Scripture: 1 Samuel 12:24 (GNT)
Obey the LORD and serve Him faithfully with all your heart. Remember the great things He has done for you.
Today’s Reading
1 Samuel 12:1-25
Reflect
Why does Samuel tell the people that they committed a great sin against the LORD when they asked for a king (verse 17)? What examples does Samuel give as evidence that God has taken care of the Israelites? What great things has God done for you?
Pray
Lord God, I want to obey You with all my heart and serve You faithfully. I praise and thank You for all the great and wonderful things You have done. Amen.
Prayer Concern
