Dear
Friend,
If you do not already have a habit of gathering daily manna the first thing in the morning (we can look at the example given to us in Exodus 16 and find the pattern for collecting daily manna), make it a habit. Establish your life and your schedule to allow you the necessary time to do your daily collection first thing every morning to give you the strength to make it through the day. And remember that today’s manna will not be sufficient for tomorrow; tomorrow’s manna must be collected tomorrow morning. Tuesday, April 10, 2018
Today's Passage : Today's Passage:Subjecta:David Spares Saul’s Life Bible Verse:1 Samuel 24 (abridged) (NLT) "After Saul returned from fighting the Philistines, he was told that David had gone into the wilderness of En-gedi. So Saul chose 3,000 elite troops from all Israel and went to search for David and his men near the rocks of the wild goats. At the place where the road passes some sheepfolds, Saul went into a cave to relieve himself. But as it happened, David and his men were hiding farther back in that very cave! “Now’s your opportunity!” David’s men whispered to him. “Today the Lord is telling you, ‘I will certainly put your enemy into your power, to do with as you wish.’” So David crept forward and cut off a piece of the hem of Saul’s robe. After Saul had left the cave and gone on his way, David came out and shouted after him, “My lord the king!” And when Saul looked around, David bowed low before him. Then he shouted to Saul, “Why do you listen to the people who say I am trying to harm you? This very day you can see with your own eyes it isn’t true. For the Lord placed you at my mercy back there in the cave. Some of my men told me to kill you, but I spared you. . . . Look, my father, at what I have in my hand. It is a piece of the hem of your robe! When David had finished speaking, Saul called back, “Is that really you, my son David?” Then he began to cry. And he said to David, “You are a better man than I am, for you have repaid me good for evil. . . . And now I realize that you are surely going to be king, and that the kingdom of Israel will flourish under your rule. Now swear to me by the Lord that when that happens you will not kill my family and destroy my line of descendants!” So David promised this to Saul with an oath. Then Saul went home, but David and his men went back to their stronghold. " Message:
We have skipped over chapter 23. It describes David and his small band of men running from Saul while battling Philistines. In this abridged version of Chapter 24, we read about a famous incident, where David comes upon Saul unawares. It seems as if God has delivered Saul into David’s hands, but instead of killing Saul—who is actively seeking to kill him—David delivers a Christ-like message. He would rather die than offend God, by slaying the anointed king.
Meditation : Prayer : Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honor and glory for ever and ever..Amen |
