Daily Bible Reading, July 2022: God’s Renewing Word of Faith

31天中的第18天

July 18

Introduction

After the death of Ehud, the Israelites once again disobey God and are conquered by the Canaanites as punishment. God chooses a female prophet, Deborah, to serve as judge, and she is instructed to command Barak to lead the people in battle against Jabin of Hazor, the Canaanite king who oppresses the Israelites cruelly.

Scripture Reading

Judges 4:1-24

Today’s Key Verse: Judges 4:14a

Then Deborah said to Barak, “Go! The LORD is leading you!”

Reflect

Why does Barak want Deborah to go with him? What does his request indicate to you about Deborah? Deborah tells Barak that he will not get credit for the victory because the LORD will hand the commander of the Canaanite army, Sisera, over to a woman. How does this come about? How would you characterize Deborah and Jael?

Pray

Almighty God, lead me each day and guide me in the ways of your truth. I place my trust in you, knowing you are with me always. Amen.

And now, join us in praying for our brothers and sisters in Christ throughout Southeast Asia: Gracious God, the need for your provision is urgent because of the shortage of accessible translations of your Word in Thailand and throughout the region, and poverty and illiteracy are weighing down underprivileged believers in rural Laos. Through the power of your Word, grant them wisdom, courage, strength, and understanding. We thank and praise you, God, for the generosity of people that enables the Good News of Jesus Christ to be carried to hurting people in Southeast Asia and around the world. Amen.

Tomorrow’s Reading

Judges 5:1-31: Deborah and Barak sing about the LORD’s victory over the Canaanite army.
