Today’s Old Testament Reading

Psalms  26;40;58;61-62;64 Psalm 26 is attributed to David which is a bit surprising, don’t you think? David has definitely not led a ‘blameless life’ (NIV). We see a lot of the recent events in his life as being consequence of his sin, yet he claims righteousness before the Lord. He states that he “does not consort with hypocrites”, but Nathan had clearly…

2 Samuel 16-18

Today’s reading: 2 Samuel 16-18 1) What motive could Ahithophel have for advising Absalom to sleep with his father’s concubines? (Keep in mind 2 Samuel 15:31) 2) Why do you think Absalom took Hushai’s advice over that of Ahithophel? 3) In chapter 18, the armies of Absalom and David meet – what was the result and what was an unlikely element in…

Old Testament Readings

Our readings today are from the Psalms: 3; 4; 12; 13; 28; 55. In light of what we have been reading in 2nd Samuel, do these Psalms take on a more specific significance? David’s first born son is dead and his second son has turned against him and he has turned the hearts of the people against their king. One of David’s…

2 Samuel 13-15

Our readings for today are 2 Samuel 13-15. Why do you think David did nothing to remedy Tamar’s situation? Where did she go after being raped by Amnon? Do you sympathize with Absalom? In Chapter 14, why did Joab initiate this reconciliation – and why did he not respond to Absalom’s request for an audience? In Chapter 15, why do you think…

Today’s Old Testament Reading

Psalms 32/51/86/122 There certainly is consequence for sin – and this is evident in the remainder of David’s life. The Lord had brought him to a place of abundance – and that seems to be the turning point in his life. Perhaps it was during that period of prosperity and success that David stopped relying so completely on the Lord. I can’t…

Today’s Bible Readings

Today’s Bible Readings: Psalms 65-67; 69-70 “You brought us to a place of abundance.”  As you read these Psalms, keep in mind that in our readings in 2nd Samuel and 1st Chronicles, the Lord has granted David victories in his battles against the Arameans, the Ammonites and the Syrians.  How would you characterize David’s relationship with the Lord at this point in…

Old Testament Daily Reading

2 Samuel 10; 1 Chronicles 19; Psalm 20 Why do you think the king of the Ammonites chose to humiliate David’s servants in this manner? Who is Abishai and how is he related to David? (this is just a trivia question!) How many chariots did the army that was fighting the Israelites have?

Old Testament Bible Reading

Today’s Reading: Psalms 106-107 Gustavo wrote an article about the Fearless conference in D.C. and his focus was on the ability of the youth and adults that attended to transfer that ‘mountaintop experience’ to the valleys of life. We see in this Psalm how the Israelites failed to do this time and time again. Before…
