July 16
Introduction
Following the death of Samuel, David and his men go to the wilderness of Paran. A man named Nabal refuses to extend hospitality to them, even though David had protected Nabal’s property. David seeks revenge, but Nabal’s wife, Abigail, prepares to intervene.
Today’s Scripture: 1 Samuel 25:6b (GNT)
“David sends you greetings, my friend, with his best wishes for you, your family, and all that is yours.”
Today’s Reading
1 Samuel 25:1-22
Reflect
In the ancient Near East, where many people wandered from place to place, if strangers were not a threat, the host was expected to welcome them as guests. Why does Nabal refuse to extend hospitality to David? What does David decide to do? What action does Abigail take?
Pray
Loving God, guard my lips from speaking hurtful words and order my steps this day. May my words and actions bring honor and glory to You. In your Holy Name, I pray. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Mediators for parties involved in legal disputes.
Tomorrow’s Reading
1 Samuel 25:23-44: Abigail dissuades David from seeking revenge.
