1 Samuel 4 - Day 338 (link to today's reading)
Scripture: 1 Samuel 4:1-11 Observation: The Israelites were at war with the Philistines and were soundly defeated. In despair, they presumptuously called for the Ark of the Covenant, thinking that God would be with them. Application: God is not a lucky charm. The Israelites thought that bringing the Ark of the Covenant with them into battle would guarantee their victory. However, God allowed the Israelites to be slaughtered by the Philistines. There are a lot of people today who think that God is on their side and presumptuously make bold predictions. I choose to humbly ask God to accept my allegiance and allow me to join whatever He is doing. Prayer: Lord, have mercy on me a sinner... Comments are closed.
