Today’s Through the Bible Reading: 1 Samuel 30-31; 2 Samuel 1; 1 Chronicles 10

Abbreviated Reading: 1 Samuel 30

In today’s reading we find one little side note that, if noticed can speak volumes. David and his men had just arrived back from battle and found their homes ransacked and their families taken captive. (1 Sam 30:3) Their hearts filled with despair – David sought the Lord for instruction and God told him to pursue the enemy. They had just finished fighting and were exhausted.  “But David found strength in the Lord his God.” (1 Sam 30:6)
